Schar Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I had an existing unRAID Server Pro version: 5.0-beta1 I have managed to join my UNRAID server to Active Directory without issue, as per below: - AD join status: Joined - AD domain: myplaydomain.int - AD account login: Administrator - AD account password: The server object is in AD Users and Computers. I have rebooted the server. The question I have: how do I set permissions up? Trying to connect to any part of the server in this mode pops up an NTLM challenge, and it does not matter what I enter it just responds "invalid user or password". I have tried my account, the Domain Administrator all with no success (the latter used to join the domain). I cannot browse any users shares or even see \\STORAGE02 (the Server name / DNS name of my box). Am I missing something silly? File permissions on the server are default (i.e. users/nobody). Second question: there was a quirky error message in the log about not being able to set a DNS name due to a missing suffix, but that has gone now. Should that be a concern? - No DNS domain configured for STORAGE02. Unable to perform DNS Update. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment
Schar Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Has no-one attempted this or got it working? That would surprise me. As things stand, AD mode is completely useless for me as I cannot access a single file when in that mode. At least going back and forward is pretty simple. Quote Link to comment
vca Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I'm running things a bit differently than you, I have a little Samba 3 Linux box that is acting as my domain controller (so I can have domain logins on all machines) and I have the unRAID file server as a domain member server. All worked well with Windows XP clients, but when I switched to using Windows 7 I ran into an issue with getting those machines to join the domain. Perhaps you are seeing another aspect of this? The relevant fixes were two new registry settings, for details see: http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows7 and http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee681622(v=ws.10).aspx Regards, Stephen Quote Link to comment
GSWatson Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 After going digging on this one quite seriously today, and rolling around in 5b14 for a while, I can say that the version of Winbind/Samba is an issue in the 5.x releases. In 4.7, AD works properly, but I am yet to see AD working properly in my environment on a 5.x release. Looks like an update to the Winbind/Samba system broke this feature. Try using wbinfo -u at the command prompt once you think you've joined active directory properly. You should see all users in AD. The pick your favourite user, and try wbinfo -i domain\\username and see what happens. In 4.7 this works swell, and so does AD auth, etc. In 5.x this does not. Seems to be people on FreeNAS and various other flavours of Linux having this same issue. The universally accepted solution, use an earlier version of Winbind/Samba. Quote Link to comment
