Done with some problems:

1. bugs reported here:

https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36496

and here

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13060

involved me - but and make workarounds and migration was done.


Basically AD samba works.


I have some questions:

I not currently understood - bind9 connected to AD server must be used 
by the LAN workstations - or only via AD server?

currently workstations are pointed to the another DNS server than AD - 
how must be it done correctly?

So i have, current open problems:

1. share:

[private]

path = %H

does not work:

  smbd[42055]:   make_connection_snum: canonicalize_connect_path failed 
for service private, path /%H

on console cd ~user works correctly

2. How to connect internal AD LDAP server?

I tried with:

oceanic:/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem# ldbsearch -H 
ldaps://oceanic.wsisiz.edu.pl
search error - 00002020: Operation unavailable without authentication

I want to add necessary attributes e.g.:

uidNumber: 10000
gidNumber: 10000

when creating the account.

3. How about password aging - i need it not only on Windows part but on 
unix part it is needed too (unix have acounts/password/etc. via ldap)?


I will be grateful for any help


Best Regards
