Cannot setup SAMBA to work!

MarkoSan · 02-03-2012, 08:05 AM

Hello!

I am getting desperated, since I cannot setup SAMBA as PDC and join Windows 7 machine into domain. Can someone explain me, why? Here is error (after command clear && net rpc join -d10 -S PDC -U root:

In the book, there is not kerberos needed for allowing to join windows 7 machine. Now I am totaly lost!

Integrating a Samba server into a Windows Domain is definitely an advanced task.

You might take a look at Samba by Example.

Chapter 7 addresses Windows Domains. I haven't read it and have no way of testing it, not having a Windows Domain, but I have found Samba by Example to be an excellent reference.

The most important part is the by Example. The book is illustrated with sample configuration files.

Good luck. Wish I could help more.

Well, I need for SAMBA to be PDC.

lithos · 02-05-2012, 04:19 AM

Hi,

did you look at the tutorial samba
or samba pdc

it might pop out something you need/missed to configure
(I don't know it so I'm just suggesting)

good luck

I have been looking those damn examples (and many other) for 3 months, SAMBA PDC still does not work. I am desperate.
Question one:
If computer acts as SAMBA PDC, is it automaticly member of domain or it must be joined into domain, whose "seeder" is itself?
Question two:
Is kerberos mandatory to be installed and configured with SAMBA if I want to join Windows 7 Pro & Windows 7 Ult boxes into domain (The Official Samba-3 Referemce Guide and Linux Samba Server Administrator BOOKS say IT IS NOT MANDATORY)?

No experience with Win7 (yet, but that is next) or using Samba as a PDC but Windoze uses encrypted passwords since version Win2000. To get samba to work with Windoze machines you either need to use kerberos or configure Windoze to use plain text passwords. I considered plain text passwords to be a non-acceptable answer so didn't try but my understanding is doing so involves a registery hack (on the Windoze boxes) that involves telling Windoze to use plain test passwords instead of encrypted ones. These are then stored in a file on the Linux box in plain text form which obviously isn't to secure. Getting kerberos to work didn't seem to difficult to me although my project only involves using Samba to join the domain using security = ads as a member server. Basically it involved loading the packages up and configuring Samba to use winbind.
I agree with your decision to not use SWAT and learn to write the smb.conf yourself, learning how in the process, that is how I did it and it can be done although like I said, I am just trying to do a member server, not PDC and have yet to tackle Win7 although that must happen for this to work in my situation. I'm not at the site so can't post my config file but will do so tommorow if it would help. I found that actually, a lot of the files online in these tutorials everyone is giving links to had a bunch of unnecessary stuff in them. The more I learned about what each parameter does, the more stuff I deleted out of the file. I lot of the examples are rather old and are for earlier versions. Ultimately this is the one I used to accomplish my task (not a PDC)

Now, I did not get answer to my 2nd question: Does my machine with Ubuntu Server Samba (as PDC) needs to be joined into domain, since if I try to testjoin it into domain, I get:

Quote:

installer@kilimanjaro:~$ net rpc testjoin
Failed to open /var/lib/samba/secrets.tdb
Failed to open /var/lib/samba/secrets.tdb
Failed to open /var/lib/samba/secrets.tdb

net_rpc_join_ok: failed to get schannel session key from server KILIMANJARO for domain MOUNTAINS. Error was NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO
Join to domain 'MOUNTAINS' is not valid: NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO
installer@kilimanjaro:~$

If is sudo testjoin, I get:

Quote:

installer@kilimanjaro:~$ sudo net rpc testjoin
[sudo] password for installer:
get_schannel_session_key: could not fetch trust account password for domain 'MOUNTAINS'
net_rpc_join_ok: failed to get schannel session key from server KILIMANJARO for domain MOUNTAINS. Error was NT_STATUS_CANT_ACCESS_DOMAIN_INFO

installer@kilimanjaro:~$

Why???

Well, at step 2, adding Linux to Windows domain, I get:

Code:

installer@kilimanjaro:~$ net rpc join -S KILIMANJARO -Uroot
Failed to open /var/lib/samba/secrets.tdb
error storing domain sid for MOUNTAINS
Enter root's password:
Creation of workstation account failed
Unable to join domain MOUNTAINS.

Then I tried to sudo mentioned command and I get:

Code:

installer@kilimanjaro:~$ sudo net rpc join -S KILIMANJARO -Uroot
Enter root's password:
Creation of workstation account failed
Unable to join domain MOUNTAINS.
installer@kilimanjaro:~$

Now what?

Thanks man for the guide, the script cannot find group machines:

Quote:

installer@kilimanjaro:~$ sudo /usr/sbin/useradd -N -g machines -c Machine -d /var/lib/samba -s /bin/false root
useradd: group 'machines' does not exist
installer@kilimanjaro:~$

What is the purpose of this group 'machines'? Do I create it in normal fashion way via smbgroupadd?
