I'm trying to set up a PPTP server to allow Windows clients to authenticate using Active Directory logins.
It's all working fine, apart from one thing: every time the Linux box is restarted, I have to remove the linux box's machine from Active Directory, then run the following commands on the Linux box:
Code:
kinit -V administrator@EXAMPLE.DOMAIN
net ads join -U administrator@EXAMPLE.DOMAIN
(so, basically, I have to remove the machine's account, then re-create it)
The Linux box is a custom-built internet appliance, running a highly customised Linux, originally based on Fedora Core, but stripped as far as possible (so I don't have handy things like yum, man, etc).
I used
this HowTo to get as far as I have (I'm using winbind rather than radius).
I haven't installed the samba server package, only the samba-client and samba-common packages.
Does anyone know any way I can get it to work without having to re-create the Linux box's machine account on AD every time it's restarted? Would installing the samba server package help?
