Dear All, I've read https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Flexible_Single-Master_Operations_(FSMO)_roles Under section https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Flexible_Single-Master_Operations_(FSMO)_roles#How_to_handle_situations_where_a_DC_with_FSMO_roles_is_offline Let assume that DC1 is take all the roles... It tell that we should put the fail DC1 back online and do the role transfer... But below

Hello, I wrote a major extension of the FSMO documentation: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Flexible_Single-Master_Operations_%28FSMO%29_roles We often had questions on the list about the FSMO roles and the consequences, when DCs owning roles are offline. I hope this will be a good reference. Regards, Marc

https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Flexible_Single-Master_Operations_%28FSMO%29_roles#Transfering_a_FSMO_role I ran into that while trying to rebuild my LXC's as Debian 8. The proposed work arrounds assume you have access to a Windows Domain controller in your domain, and I don't. Is there anything else I can do to get all 7 Roles moved to my other domain controller so I can rebuild it?

Hello I have primary and secondary Samba 4 DCs running very nicely with replication. I have DC1 using the official Backup scripts. We are moving these to virtual machines. We are changing the Linux OS on DC1 from Gentoo to Ubuntu. REAL DC1 = FSMO Role REAL DC1 = Gentoo REAL DC2 = Ubuntu VIRTUAL DC1 = Ubuntu What is the correct way to change DC1 to a virtual machine? Do I just restore from

I see the instructions about setting up a secondary domain controller at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Join_a_domain_as_a_DC but I am unclear on several points. I'm familiar with Kerberos/LDAP/DNS but not Windows administration. (1) This document talks about adding Samba as a slave to "an existing Active Directory domain" (presumably running Windows). Is it the same to

Hello, I've set up 2 DCs. The first as been set up using the command: samba-tool domain provision ? The second, using the command: samba-tool domain join <realm> DC? As far as command return status say the commands went well. Using only the first DC, I can add windows client to the domain, I can manage users, everything seems to be ok. When adding the second DC, users database is

This is also possible with AD sites. Even if the network connection is temporary offline. Each DC has a RID pool (default 500 RIDs). Until it's empty, you can create new

I'll search the Wiki If you only have one AD DC, then they are already on your DC and there is no other place the FSMO roles could be. Installed is not the

Hello guys, i use Samba 4 AD (4.2.1) for a small company. I use a domain which is a subdomain of our internal DNS domain ( directory.mydomain.io) Now my company will open several sites in different countries. I was wondering what is the actual limitations of Samba4 concerning the multi domain (i'm not a Windows guy and have very limited knowledge about AD). I read about trust relationship

However, neither of them have an fSMORoleOwner attribute. That I will fix and report back.

Hello, during the last weeks I began to (re)-write and test some Wiki HowTos, but had no time to finish them yet. Now it's done. Here they are: Complete re-writes (please proofread): * https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_a_Samba_AD_Member_Server I also replaced some outdated pages about the same topic from the Wiki with a forwarder to this HowTo. *

Hello, I have a problem with my samba4 domain cluster: there are 2 machines, - primary and secondary server. Everything was working fine, but i had a hard drive failure on primary PDC, so i reinstalled and restored a backup to it. Aftrwards i saw the warning about never restoring database from backups. Now I have the following problems: users can login and all group policies are provided, but

I just transferred all the FSMO roles from DC-MIGRATE to DC1: [root at dc1 ~]# samba-tool fsmo transfer --role=all FSMO transfer of 'rid' role successful FSMO transfer of 'pdc' role successful FSMO transfer of 'naming' role successful FSMO transfer of 'infrastructure' role successful FSMO transfer of 'schema' role successful I then double checked as

I am in the process of upgrading my Centos 6/Samba 4.1 AD DCs to Centos7/Samba 4.2, but I see from a few discussions on the list that it is currently not possible to remove an AD DC using samba-tool because it does not delete all the FSMO roles. Can Windows tools be used to remove the DCs properly? The Samba Wiki page
