similar to: Samba 4: Modify group members with LDAP

I'm playing around with Domain Membership to a WIndows 2012 AD Server. It appears I'm able to join the AD domain, but the domain member doesn't seem to authenticate anything against the DC once joined. Here is my smb.conf netbios name = Member workgroup = ZARTMAN security = ADS realm = ZARTMAN.LOCAL dedicated keytab file = /etc/krb5.keytab kerberos method = secrets and

When you first provision an AD DC, is there a way to control where samba-tool puts all of the AD data files? -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali Foundation, Inc. 2755 19th Street SE Salem, Oregon 97302 Cell: 541-5218449 SME Server user and community member since 2000

I'm working to setup Samba as a domain member to a Windows Server active directory, and I keep hitting road blocks. There's some real terminology hurdles in the wiki. In a nutshell, my problem is this: I setup a Windows 2012 Essentials ADS domain and I ended up with zartman.local for my "domain" in Windows. So, I've got a dns zone in windows server that is domain.local

I'm working with the Centos 7 packages for Samba 4.2.10 and I note that the stock packages don't include the ldb tools (eg, ldbmodify, ldbsearch, etc). I did find a stand along centos package that contains these tools from here: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LDB However, the stand along tools don't seem to be aware of the Active Directory schema. For example, if I try to use

Is it possible to change the DNS listening IP? I'd like to run a dnscache service for primary LAN queries, but the only way to do this with Samba seems to be iptables preroute configuration to redirect port 53 requests. Thanks, -- Greg J.

Does anyone know what Red Hat/Centos is going with Samba 4? I've looked at their packages in COS 6.5 and 7 and it doesn't make sense. They seems to be doing some kind of watered down or modified version of Samba 4 with some of the tools disabled. Are they still holding off from full AD implementation in their packages because of the MIT Kerberos issues identified in previous

Looking at the ldif, I think we could rework this so that one could modify the LDAP schema directly using LDAP syntax. In my case, I'm using Net::LDAP. Something more like this: dn:

What is the best way to store file system quotas for users in the Active Directory? I'm not seeing any standard attributes for this, so it looks like the best way is to extend the schema. Is this correct? Thanks, Greg -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali SME Server www.koozali.org SME Server user, contributor, and community member since 2000

I am surprised that others uses Samba 4 on *nix file servers don't talk about this

I've been messing around with disk quotas for users and have seen some who have extended the Samba 4 AD schema to include a quota attribute. For example, I found this schema extension here: http://fossies.org/linux/quota/ldap-scripts/quota.schema Is there a common method for doing this? -- Greg J.

I'm working on building some perl code to query a Samba AD and list various things. I'm wondering if there is something like samba-tool for query user from the AD other than just the username? I see that I can use and LDAP perl module to query the LDAP side of the AD, but wanted to see if Samba has a utility for doing this. Thanks! -- Greg J. Zartman Board Member Koozali Foundation,

I am working to deploy Samba4 on the SME Server: A customized version of Centos with a web management GUI and configuration API. One of the challenges we see is how we synchronize our SME Server configuration API with users who are created using tools outside of *nix. For example if a user were created using the windows administration tools. Are there any triggers in Samba that could be set to

People seriously use this in a production environment? The lack of documentation and confusion surrounding pretty basic posix auth is extremely surprising. I'm no noob at *nix admin and

I would say that workgroup = ZARTMAN should be right. Workgroups normally don't have dots in their name. Than you should also try: idmap config ZARTMAN:backend = ad idmap config ZARTMAN:schema_mode = rfc2307 idmap config ZARTMAN:range = 10000-99999 One more thing is that it's not recommended to have a .local domain realm. Have a look at this above glibc...

I note from the man pages, that idmap_ad will only map users/groups IF you set the UIDnumber in the active directory. In lookin in my active directory, there is a "Unix Attributes" tab with "UID" in that tab that you can set. There is also and "Attributes Editor" tap where you can look at all attributes and edit the "UIDnumber" I just want to verify that
