similar to: Samba 4 and DFS replication

Has anyone successfully added a Win2008R2 DC to a Samba4 domain? The issue I am encountering is the sysvol/netlogon shares are not created. I can manually create them and copy files, but as soon as I demote/forcefully remove the Samba4 server, the Win2008R2 server refuses to serve requests for the domain. I cannot even manage it through ADUC.

Hi, I am considering using the dfs options in samba. The question I have is about file replication. I want to set up dfs between two servers (one dfs share points to two real shares). In particular, I want have a share on one and a replica on the other as a fallback in the even of the first failing. I have done it on windows 2K server before. I am considering using rsync to replicate the files

When does File Replication using NTFRS or DFS-R will be availabe? Does anybody already work on this item? Here would be some first documentation for this team in case it hasn't started yet: - NTFRS: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc759297(v=ws.10).aspx - SYSVOL replication: http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/dd640019(v=ws.10).aspx - NTFRS migration to DFS-R:

Hello, I read that replication with DFS-R requires NTFS filesystem on both sides, because it accesses the "change journal". (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773238%28v=ws.10%29.aspx) Can I use DFS-R between samba4 and windows if I use ntfs-3g? If not is it planned to support DFS-R in a future version of samba? thanks, Klaus -- Klaus Hartnegg, Universität Freiburg,

Hi I've no idea if anyone can help with this, or if it's even a good idea, but I'll give it a go.......... I've been charged with providing a level of fail-over with a Samba implementation, and without going down the shared storage/cluster approach it was suggested that we consider using the File Replication Service in Win2k to mirror a complete share tree from the primary SMB

Any plane in future to build-in Samba SysVol replication (DFS-R) ? For now we have this workaround at link: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Rsync_based_SysVol_replication_workaround

I am attempting to set up AWS Directory Services to connect with our Samba 4 AD servers, but it is not working. When capturing with Wireshark, I am seeing that Samba 4 is returning "unavailableCriticalExtension (12)" Below is a screenshot of the LDAP query. Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to get Wireshark to copy and paste it all to plain-text. Does anyone have any hints as to

Hi I'd like to learn more on the pros and cons of a mixed domain that consists of both MS and Samba domain controllers and member servers. What I have learnt so far is this; I created a new lab domain with an MS DC 2019. I then added a Samba 4.19-3 file server as a domain member w/o any issues. The clients are 2 Win 10 VM's for tests of shares, GPO's and related technologies. Still

This is a situation that is meant to work, but is not actively tested (all our tests are pure Samba), but seems to work for some folks. However given the way Windows

hi there, the samba wiki currently recommends using rsync to achieve sysvol replication in an ad dc setup with more than one dc. this seems a bit kludgy to me ? using some sort of a distributed file system would probably be a more elegant solution. while researching this, i came across a few threads on this list, but unfortunately none of them provides a definite answer to which setup works to

Hello, Our company currently stores its data on centralized samba servers which causes performance problems for remote office employees. We are thinking of decentralizing the data with NAS in each office and synchronizing all the NAS on our central domain controller with MSDFS. I have heard this can be done in real time with Windows and Active Directory.

I have been looking into DFS (no R) with Samba and found the page https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS) and do have some questions: ?There is currently (July 2014) a discussion in the mailing list in which several users report great difficulties with domain-based DFS in samba 4, maybe related with the implementation of smb protocol version 3.? ? is this still true or has

Hi: I've got a samba/DFS server configured that works fine under it's original name, but I'm getting booted out of that DNS domain, into a subdomain. All my (WinXP) clients have drives mapped to names like \\server.domain.com\dfsroot. If I browse to the path, \\server.domain.com\dfsroot, everything works. I can access the shares pointed to via the dfs links But, now the network is

Hi, I am trying to configure domain DFS (I think that's the correct term) as below, using the guide on the wiki: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Distributed_File_System_(DFS)#Configure_domain-based_DFS_in_Samba I am aware that the wiki says that this doesn't quite work... however it feels to me that it's very close, nearly working, and I might be able to get it going (hopefully?!)

Hi Kees, Thanks once more. To be precise: - you are running this on DCs? - no links required as on the wiki page? - "vfs objects = dfs_samba4, acl_xattr, full_audit" - I don?t have that in my smb.conf. What part(s) of this are default, required, or special? Thanks, Joachim -----Urspr?ngliche Nachricht----- Von: samba <samba-bounces at lists.samba.org> Im Auftrag von Kees van

Hello, i'm trying to figure out some specific things about Samba DFS. 1. What is the ordering method of a DFS Share with multiple servers (e.g. msdfs:serverB\\share,serverC\\share linkb ; Source: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/msdfs.html)? With a Microsoft DFS i have 3 options regarding the target. (Targets in a client's site are listed first in a

Hi! My situation is that I configured samba with ldap authentication, I created shares and and after I created standalone dfs for these shares. (Everything is on the same server) I have a client debian with gnome and ldap authentication, so I can login on this machine with ldap users. My problem is, if I try to access dfs share with nautilus with the same user, with which I logged on the machine,
