View 14 RepliesAt the school i work in i have a server2k3 server that provides a domain to all the windows clients, aswell as a fedora server that acts as an imaging machine and webserver.
Im rather concious of the fact that if for any reason the Server2k3 server was to die there is no backup of active directory, or anything that can take its place whilst a replacement is found.
So is it possible to use a fedora machine with samba as a secondary domain controller? so it can be used as a login server, and has a copy of AD.
i have configured samba as file server in fedora 11,it works fine for both windows and linux machines .but i want to configure ldap and samba as domain controller. Googled a lot on internet every thing is confusing me .

Im running a Samba server as a PDC
Every thing works fine When I log in it creates a folder on the server for the user. when the user logs out, it is copying the user data to the server, for example folders like Documents,Favorites and so on.
My problem is,Im using a Dutch version of Windows 7 but the folders sync are English

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm working for a smallish non-profit that has gone through some recent growing pains. We have two sites that are currently without a domain controller, and no money for MS licenses, so I was thinking of trying to add a couple of additional Linux machines (we already run Linux for web services internally, and I've set up a test case previously to see if I could get a server to join the domain, which was a success) and was trying to find out if I can get them to act as Domain Controllers without replacing the domain. The main issue that I'm having at those locations is drive mappings are not happening correctly against our DFS file servers. The one other location that had this issue had it go away when we added a local DC. The domain is a Server 2008 domain.

it always frozen my ssh login window when the DC crashes. when the DC crashes, the putty won't give me the password prompt and will go inactive directly after a while no matter what username(local or domain users) I give

I have a Linux machine which is on my network but not on my domain. I have configured SAMBA FILESERVER for file sharing purpose. I have a Windows XP PC which is on the domain(windows server) that I am trying to connect to a share on the Linux box. I supply my credentials but regardless of which login I use I always get Logon Failure. I have created an account on the Linux machine with the same user name and password as my domain account but so far no luck. Can I connect from a domain PC to a non-domain Linux box? Is there something else I should be checking?

We have a LAN with mixed Windows workstations win 2000, winxp, vista, win 7, linux servers all in a workgroup. Most applications used on the LAN are windows based, with a growing number of python apps. A friend suggested a Primary Domain Controller would be a better way to manage logins, resources etc. I don't wont to use a Windows based PDC, what would you suggest as a linux based PDC? I have heard about TURNKEY PDC, but it uses Samba 3 and apparently doesn't handle Active Directory in Windows.

View 12 Replies View RelatedJust looking for the best/most reliable setup. In a nutshell, I would love to have a Domain Controller no DHCP File server. I want to leave the DHCP to the router. I need virtual to run a software off from it. Samba server and that is basically it. My questions are:
1. Can I have a Domain Controller without DHCP server?
2. Should I run virtual server headless? so I dont install any gui?
3. This should have been my 1st question. I have two disks, is raid handled by the Bios or do I have to do something in linux(DMRAID)?
I have worked with many if not all the things I have mentioned here, however, I have never done it from scratch.

I know that with SAMBA tools we can connect fedora and windows.I also know how to connect fedora7 with win xp.But my problem is,i am using win2003 server.And in this os,i am not able to find the option to share my root directory.I think it is not available in server2003.
So how can i connect fedora with server2003.My fedora pc shows the icon of windows network,but at my windows PC the LAN connection shows disconnected.
I have also tried to share one folder from windows pc.But when i try to open it at fedora pc with open location it says "cant show the content of this folder."
I want to set a log off script for samba domain users. Actually I am facing a huge temp files related problem. So I want to set a batch file which will run when domain user log off.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a samba server for company file shares but we do not use domain services or active directory service. Each workstation is its own standalone system. (And we want to keep it this way.) I would like to have some centralized authentication though, and it looks like Kerberos will provide that. After a lot of searching though, I can't find any instructions for setting up samba to authenticate users using kerberos without an ADS (active directory service) or domain. Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm configuring a classroom based on Linux (just Linux, without Windows) with user mobility. What I want is that any student will use its own 'username/password' on whatever computer getting its own data and without having to define every user on every computer. As far as Samba is very useful, even when I don't need Windows support I decided to base the solution on Samba. Right now I still have some problems and the solution doesn't work in my test environment. I defined a PDC (Samba 3.5 Domain Controller) on a Fedora 13 with 'homes', starting nmb and smb and it seems to work. On a Ubuntu 10.10 Workstation I built a Samba 'Domain Member Server' starting nmb, smb and winbind.
First question: should I define 'homes' on this server or not? I assumed 'not' as the 'homes' you have to use are the ones defined on the PDC, not on the DMS.
Second question: does winbind run just on DMS? Not on the PDC too?
I defined the DMS 'machine' and some domain users on the PDC and I could 'join' the DMS to the PDC without any problem (join rpc ...) From the workstation I can use smbclient seeing a domain with two servers, one of which is the controller. I can connect to the home shares using the domain users which are authorized by the PDC. On the DMS I paid attention on nsswitch.conf and pam file running 'pam-auth-update'. So 'webinfo -u' provides a list of users on the domain, local users and domain users. The problem arrives when I try to connect from the session login screen on the workstation to 'mydomainmyuser'. PDC validates the user, if the password is right, and I get connected but not to my PDC homes.
Instead I get some errors starting with:
'could not update ICEAuthoriy file /home/mydomain/myuser/.ICEAuthority'
It seems I'm in an empty space in an open but useless session which I can close later on.
Hereafter you will see the short smb.conf reported by testparm:
PDC
[global]
workgroup = TESO-DOM
server string = Samba Server Version %v
interfaces = lo, wlan0
bind interfaces only = Yes .....
We're still using an NT Domain Server, and Samba is already configured properly. But the problem is if the shared folder is configured in samba to be accessed by group and not the domain username, authentication fails even if the user is member of the group.
Example#1: (authentication successful)
[sharedfolder]
valid users = domain+username
Example#2:
[sharedfolder] (authentication fails)
valid users = @domaingroup
Samba version is samba-3.0.33
How do I configure samba such that AD authentication still works when a DC is down? Do I need multiple kdc, admin_server, and kpasswd_server entries in krb5.conf?
