similar to: Samba as BDC to AD Server

This one has been puzzling me for quite a while now. I have been able to set up Samba 3 as an NT4 DC replacement, using the passdb backend. For other applications, I have run Samba and Winbind alongside a Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller and used distributed authentication across the two platforms. What I would like to do now is to use Samba in what is effectively a BDC-type role. I

Hi. I don't find a way to make a Samba BDC replicate an AD Server. I need to authenticate in Samba BDC if my link with AD PDC goes down. I read that it is not possible. Is this true ? Samba 4 will do this ? Thanks, **-- Marcelo H. Terres mhterres@gmail.com

Hello, at the Moment we use and Samba 4 in NT4-style Domain with approx. 20 Clients. With the Problem of Windows 10 to join to NT4-style (https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Required_Settings_for_Samba_NT4_Domains#Windows_10:_There_Are_Currently_No_Logon_Servers_Available_to_Service_the_Logon_Request) we plan to migrate to Samba AD. At the Moment there is the following scheme: samba PDC

Hey all, might be a tad bit off topic to samba, but not entirely unlrelated. Anyhow, as I understand it, the task of a BDC is to process most if not all of the domain logons before a PDC does so is it not? It has been my understanding that the BDC generally accepts and processes domain logons before the PDC does on a network to keep the load down on the PDC until such time as the BDC cannot

Hello, I have a little problem with samaba... well... with windows nt, samba works fine. I'll try to explain it: My net has 2 servers with NT4, a pdc and a bdc. Well, my intentions is to eliminate de NT4 PDC and put a Samba PDC. So I made the next steps: 1-. In BDC, Administrative Tools - Server Administrators (i think) and there i select the BDC and click in the menu to "Eliminate

All, I'm using an LDAP backend for a test PDC/BDC setup. Both the PDC and BDC are using the same LDAP server. Both the PDC and BDC are running 3.0.23c on Sarge, and I've verified that both the PDC and BDC will authenticate users via smbclient. XP clients are able to login to the domain fine, and all is generally swell. My PDC is also my WINS server, and I've verified that XP clients

Hello Lads, Problem could be smbldap-tools, im using 0.97. I have manually set the sid on the bdc which seems to work. I am confused because I thought net rpc getsid stored the sid from the pdc on the bdc in secrets. I wasn't aware that net getlocalsid should return identical results on both pdc & bdc. Please explain this - why isnt the BDC obtaining the sid automatic as it should

Hi, After lots of struggle and rtfm I finally got most things running, except for 'nmblookup' and 'net getlocalsid' on the BDC. I'm not new to Samba, but plenty more to learn. Here's the setup in summary: system pdc is the PDC on subnet 192.168.0.0, running SuSE10.1, LDAP master, wins server, domain master browser, no iptables; system bdc is the BDC on subnet 192.168.2.0,

hi list&john, i read in the documention about BDCs: The domain SID has to be the same on the PDC and the BDC. In Samba versions pre-2.2.5, the domain SID was stored in the file |private/MACHINE.SID|. For all versions of Samba released since 2.2.5 the domain SID is stored in the file |private/secrets.tdb|. This file is unique to each server and cannot be copied from a PDC to a BDC; the BDC

Hi, Maybe this was asked many time (although can't find it on google). Let's assume 2 scenarios: 1) I've got local network where PDC and BDC are set up. PDC is working fine so the BDC is. When it's possible for any XP client to use BDC instead of PDC? I read in samba docs that if PDC is slow client can use BDC - but what does it mean slow for the client? How the client knows

Hi, Does someone know how will all my client machines find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running Samba with LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. The replication on all domain controllers are perfect. I went as far as making BDC

Hi all! I'm a bit unsure if my idea is the best approach to this. So here's what I'm supposed to do: There is currently a samba pdc running with samba-2 which is about to be replaced because of some strange behaviour. The idea is to build a bdc first which should take over the job of the pdc as long as it takes to set up a new pdc with samba-3. After that is done the pdc is brought

Hi there, I have a Samba PDC and BDC migrated from NT4 using ldapsam with an interdomain trust to a 2k3 domain. The trust is established both ways and was made from the pdc. Using samba 3.0.14a-sernet on Suse 9.1 The trust is working. I can pull users from the trusted domain and apply them to acls on my samba DMS. Winbind adds the idmap entry correctly. What is not working, is authentication from

Hello all, I have 2 PC setup as PDC and BDC (both Centos5, with samba 3.0.23c-2). The problem is, quite often client logon to BDC instead of PDC. I tried to tweak the OS level, but seems not affecting the problem. My understanding is that BDC will only taking charge of client logons when PDC is unavailable. Or is it that BDC will work hand-in-hand at the same time with PDC regarding domain

Hello everyone, I am faced with a samba related problem, I have set up a PDC with a ldap backend. This PDC is working perfectly. I have also set up another samba box to act as my BDC. The BDC is working correctly as well. PDC:192.168.1.1 BDC:192.168.1.2 My PDC is currently sharing a few file shares. I would like my BDC to host a few file shares as well. I share the file like this,(this is in

I would like to know how to achieve a "hot-failover" setup between a Samba 3.x.x primary domain controller and backup domain controller with a LDAP backend. I was under the impression that all I need to specify is something like the following in my smb.conf: passdb backend = ldapsam:"ldap://pdc-srv.domain.org ldap://bdc-srv.domain.org" I have set this passdb backend

Was wondering if samba will run a BDC on a linux machine? In this scenario the PDC is a NT box. Details: -------- We are using samba 2.2.2 with winbind in order to replicate the list of NT users/groups on a NT 4 network. There is an existing NT 4 PDC running on the network. Our software would like to know the complete list of users and groups so it can manage access to resources. To clarify:
