[Samba] Samba4 + Winbind

[Lukz Ferris]

Hello Marc,


Thanks for your documentation.

Well I followed what you wrote, perhaps my wbinfo command fails when I try to test the connectivity.


# wbinfo --ping-dc
checking the NETLOGON dc connection failed
failed to call wbcPingDc: WBC_ERR_WINBIND_NOT_AVAILABLE
Could not ping our DC


My smb.conf is now this:


# Global parameters
[global]
        netbios name = DEVLUCAS1
        realm = LUCAS.UFES.BR
        workgroup = LUCAS
        server role = active directory domain controller
        winbind nss info = template
        template shell = /bin/bash
        template homedir = /home/%U

[netlogon]
        path = /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvol/lucas.ufes.br/scripts
        read only = No

[sysvol]
        path = /usr/local/samba/var/locks/sysvol
        read only = No




I think that idmap is missing, but I didn't understand that properly (I also read other documentations). If you could help me what is missing I will be grateful.

Hi Lukz,

I'm replying off list, because I haven't finally validated the procedure
for all supported Samba versions yet.

I published a new documentation about Winbindd on a Samba AD DC this
evening. I think this was what you're are looking for:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Configuring_Winbindd_on_a_Samba_AD_DC

I have validated the procedure including PAM authentication on a 4.5.3
DC but I expect that it works on 4.4 and 4.3, too.

Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions on the doc.

Regards,
Marc
