[Samba] Samba4 UNIX password sync

[Rob Mason]

Hi List,

I am trialling a small Samba4 AD server supporting 10 users (running
fine).  I also have exim smtp and dovecot imap running on the same
Debian Wheezy box.  Simplistically, what I would like to achieve is for
an AD user account to also authenticate to imap and smtp using the same
credentials. I previously used Samba3 'unix password sync' to ensure
that any domain users were automatically created a unix account.  This
doesn't seem supported any more?

I believe I now need winbind to support this?  If so, then
"https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_a_Samba_AD_Member_Server"
doesn't work on my Debian Wheezy box - I don't see libnss_winbind.so on
my system.   And 'apt-get install winbind' says I'm already on the
latest version...

Anyone any pointers on the best approach?

smb.conf:

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = ACASTA
        realm = ACASTA.INTRA
        netbios name = KEPLER
        server role = active directory domain controller
        dns forwarder = 192.168.100.1
        idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes

[netlogon]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol/acasta.intra/scripts
        read only = No

[sysvol]
        path = /var/lib/samba/sysvol
        read only = No
