Hello,
Probably problem is numer 3... see below....
All of them are running after restart of computer:
# /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc status
● samba-ad-dc.service - LSB: start Samba daemons for the AD DC
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc)
Active: active (running) since Son 2015-10-04 23:14:36 CEST; 18h ago
# /etc/init.d/samba status
● samba-ad-dc.service - LSB: start Samba daemons for the AD DC
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc)
Active: active (running) since Son 2015-10-04 23:14:36 CEST; 18h ago
# /etc/init.d/nmbd status
● nmbd.service - LSB: start Samba NetBIOS nameserver (nmbd)
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/nmbd)
Active: active (exited) since Son 2015-10-04 23:14:36 CEST; 18h ago
# /etc/init.d/smbd status
● smbd.service - LSB: start Samba SMB/CIFS daemon (smbd)
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/smbd)
Active: active (exited) since Son 2015-10-04 23:14:36 CEST; 18h ago
winbind is not running.
And yes, nmbd is in /usr/sbin.
I checked my /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc and it is the same as
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-samba/samba.git;a=blob_plain;f=debian/samba.samba-ad-dc.init;h=3132d2e367675f822342a5b7bc2e50c046aa3b8f;hb=HEAD
which is recommended for Debian on
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/InitScript .
I got all those init scripts set to 755 like recommended:
/etc/init.d # ls -l samba samba-ad-dc nmbd smbd
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1948 Mär 7 2015 nmbd
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1266 Mär 7 2015 samba
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2299 Mär 7 2015 samba-ad-dc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1930 Mär 7 2015 smbd
As far as I understand /etc/init.d/samba starts samba-ad-dc, smbd and nmbd
and the init each of them themselves check if the process is needed or
not. As far as I can understand the /etc/init.d/nmbd file nmbd should not
be started but exit, because I have an active directory domain controller.
I tested on the command line:
>samba-tool testparm --parameter-name="server role"
active directory domain controller
I do not understand that behaviour. Furthermore I do not understand why I
do have to have a /etc/init.d/samba additionally to
/etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc. So what I did was stopping everything and just
start /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc (which does not start nmbd and smbd). Then I
did all recommended tests of the Wiki again. Everything's works fine. But
am I going to run into problems later on? Do I need to get rid of init
files? I attached /etc/init.d/samba and /etc/init.d/nmbd files below.
Please can somebody point out
1) which init scripts/processes are necessary for Samba 4 AD DC
2) and most important: how to deactivate the unnecessary ones at startup
3) do I have mixed up my installation? To me it seems I somehow have a
samba 4 pdc and a samba 4 AD DC simultaneusly installed. Ow, now I
remember at provision I was informed to remove /etc/samba/smb.conf (the
one that was produced at samba install with aptitude which included
"server role = standalone server"). I renamed it to smb_old.conf and then
the AD AC installation succeeded. But did it somehow install those
unnecessary processes as wellt? If yes, how to clean up? (I could also
start the whole installation from scratch if it is the easiest way to do
it.)
kind regards, birgit
