and groups. These ranges are configurable. There are several winbind models as
well. The default and most common involves assigning uids and gids in the order
they are read from the domain. Another common model uses the RID portion of the
Windows SID along with a formula to determine the uid or gid values.
Permissions to Linux resources are granted through the group memberships defined
in ADS using the IDs assigned through winbind. Winbind users cannot be mixed
with Linux users in common groups.
Winbind users and groups can be mapped to native Linux uids; however, there are
some issues with doing this. See the Samba Official HOWTO on the www.samba.org
website for more details and limitations.
Configure the Samba solution with ADS
Each cluster node running Samba needs to be joined to the domain individually using
the hostname. The computer account should be kept on a non-shared path. Several
Samba parameters will need to be changed to allow Samba to be joined to the
domain. It is best to get the Samba deployment pack installed and working before
changing the Samba configuration so it can be joined to the domain.
The following parameters need to be changed before Samba can be joined to a
domain.
Changes for domain level security
Set these parameters:
• Workgroup = [short Domain Name]
• security = domain
• password server = [IPs of DCs of domain]
See the Samba Official HOWTO for more information about using net rpc join
to join Samba to a domain using domain level security.
NOTE:
As an example of a short domain name, if the domain is “nevada.usa.com”, the
short domain name is “nevada”.
Use net rpc testjoin to test the join after the join has completed successfully.
