I am having problems getting dns to function correctly with Ubuntu
14.04LTS.
My /etc/hosts file is:
127.0.0.1 localhost
# Need to keep 127.0.1.1 entry or DNS fails
127.0.1.1 mysrvr03.mycomapny.biz wdnsrvr03
192.168.16.208 mysrvr03.mycompany.biz wdnsrvr03
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
My /etc/network/interface is:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.16.208
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.16.0
broadcast 192.168.16.255
gateway 192.168.16.106
dns-nameservers 192.168.16.106 208.67.222.222
# dns-nameservers 192.168.16.208
# dns-nameservers 208.67.222.222
# dns-search mycompany.biz
My /etc/samba/smb.conf is:
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = MYCOMPANY
realm = MYCOMPANY.BIZ
netbios name = MYSRVR03
server role = active directory domain controller
# dns forwarder = 192.168.16.208
dns forwarder = 208.67.222.222
# dns forwarder = 192.168.16.106
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
allow dns updates = nonsecure and secure
# from blogging.dragon.org.uk
# stops the syslog being spammed by lack of a CUPS server
printing = CUPS
printcap name = /dev/null
idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes
idmap config MYCOMPANY:backend = ad
idmap config MYCOMPANY:schema_mode = rfc2307
idmap config MYCOMPANY:range = 10000-29999
idmap config *:backend = tdb
# this range must not overlap the MYCOMPANY:range above
idmap config *:range = 50000-60000
# Use home directory and shell information from AD
winbind nss info = rfc2307
[netlogon]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/mycompany.biz/scripts
read only = No
[sysvol]
path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
read only = No
[Users]
path = /Shares/DTUsers
comment = domain users folders 4 re-direction
read only = No
[Profiles]
path = /Shares/Profiles
comment = domain users profiles
read only = No
[Media]
path = /Shares/Media
comment = music, video, etc.
read only = No
[Software]
path = /Shares/Software
comment = software installation files
read only = No
Okay, so notice the various "comment out" entries. I keep reading and
trying to 'get my head' around the various combinations. It seems many
tutorials (on Internet) keep contradicting themselves. One author did
his/hers this way, that author did his/hers that way, etc.
When using Ubuntu 14.04 as the Samba4 ADDC what is the correct settings?
Suggestions?
