okay, I started to look into winbind and the /etc/nsswitch.conf (and
smb.conf)... and it wreaked havoc...
I was using the guide at
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_a_Samba_AD_Member_Server
- right guide?
the guide is talking about "samba member server that is part of an
active directory"
Is that correct? I mean, THE ad domain controller is member of the ad,
but it sounds like this guide is about samba being added to AD, not
samba being the AD
- added the idmap and winbind lines to smb.conf
- net [rpc|ads] join -u administrator
I do not exactly get what this does and if rpc or ads is the "right one"
which made me think. when I setup samba4 as ad controller (samba-tool
domain provision ...) does it not become member of the its own domain?
do I need to add it by hand? I always assumed not do...
- ln -s ... + ldconfig
here I ran into trouble. I saw the notice about needing to subsitute
lib64 with lib if running x86
Well, the pi is definately not x64. but neither is it x86. i chose to
use lib, betting it should fit.
x86_64-linux-gnu I replaced with i386-linux-gnu
- nsswitch.conf
I added the winbind as stated
- samba start
now samba wont start anymore. I guess samba will be replaced by smbd,
nmbd and winbindd (error message in daemon.log hints at that)
for which I have no startscripts. any quick solutions or do I have to
manually fix it?
the link for start script under starting the daemons will lead to the
site I got my script from though...
- testing
wbinfo -u and wbinfo -g show nothing and no error
- configure wrong?
I did not use --with-ads --with-shared-modules=idmap_ad
According to the guide I should have... Guess Ill have to start again
If only configure, make and make install wouldnt take ages...
- why winbind?
I dont exactly get the benefit of dealing with winbind. a quick test
yesterday let me add a pc to the domain and access the domain via
windows 7 server tools. I have not further tested the capabilities of
the samba ad. What wont work without winbind, what does it accomplish.
