samba domain integration
-
@Tom-Elliott sorry i made some tests with the legacy client and some with the new one.
Actually i try with the new client -
@Tom-Elliott
To summarize i use a trunk version of fog : In th e litle cloud at the top of the page : 4700
I use the “new client”
I’m sure of my user wich is able to join windows client into samba domain.
I can join my windows machine test manually and with powershell script
On the “Active Directory” Host configuration i dont use the “Domain Password Legacy” field only the “Domain Password”.
Here is how i do :
Join Domain after image task “checked”
Domain name “samba_domain”
Organizational Unit “blanck”
Domain Username administrateur
Domain Password : contain this " ’ "
i’ve got this error message :
HostnameChanger Logon failure: unknown username or bad password, code = 1326I didnt configure anything else on fog server
Thanks for your help

@Tom-Elliott Is it possible that the problem comes from an apostrophe in the password of the Samba domain administrator?

Can you try with an account test with a simple password ?
-
@ch3i YESSSS it works with a password without apostrophe
May be it could be possible to correct the client to make possible the utilization of specials characters in the password ?Thanks for your help
-
@Tom-Elliott As i said just before it seems that the problem come from an apostrophe into the domain administrator password, it works if i use an other domain admin test without apostrophe .
Is it a bug ? -
@Tom-Elliott Hello, Is it planned to correct the problem concerning specials characters in the domain administrator password ? Or do i have to use a password without special characters ?
I’ve got another little problem, on the host page : i’ve got “No response” with an exclamation point in a red circle as fog didnt see the host .
Nevertheless i can see the host add snapins etc…
Thanks for your helpFor informations, for each tests i make on fog (installation, download, upload, samba domain, snapins…), i write a little (french) procedure, are you interested by that ?
Thanks again -
New problem with the last svn version to join samba domain i’ve got this error message in fog.log file :
The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted , code = 1355And this in the apache error log :
PHP Warning: strpos(): needle is not a string or an integer in /var/www/fog/lib/client/HostnameChanger.class.php on line 12I use an admin password without special characters, and it works manually
Thanks for your help

Do you specify the ADuser like this: domain\user ??
There is a little coding error in HostnameChanger.class.php on line 12 which would cause trouble then. You could try to just put in the user as FOG can handle this by adding the domain by itself (see in the code).@Tom-Elliott I think you had this correct in an earlier version. Find some examples on how to do strpos with array here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11514302/searching-for-array-of-needle-values-with-strpos
@plegrand According your question about special characters in the password, I reckon that apostrophe is pretty special that way. It’s often used to begin and end strings in PHP and SQL. So it definitely can cause a lot of trouble. I think it would take quite some time to get this fixed and tested through all the layers of FOG/webinterface/database/client… I am sorry but I don’t find the time at the moment. Maybe you want to look through the code and see if you can find where it actually fails. Would be of great help.

@Uncle-Frank You are correct. For some idiotic reason I tried to pass through an array. Even though the php manual states the needle to search for can be a mixed sort, I’m guessing strpos just wasn’t smart enough. I’ve now fixed this issue. Now I suppose I really need to try figuring out the whole apostrophe in the password bit.
-
@Uncle-Frank Thanks a lot for your answer, for the moment i use a “classic” password and it works fine.
This morning it didnt works anymore with a classic password. If i understand i’ve got upgrade svn and it will work again?
Thanks again -
@Tom-Elliott i upgraded to 4059 but i cant join domain, there is no more error message in apache error.log
do i have to use domain\user ? -
@Uncle-Frank sorry but it’s not very clear for me, do i have to use domain\user now ?
I’ve got again this error message in fog.log :
The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted , code = 1355
But i can join domain manually
Thanks again -
@Tom-Elliott Hello i think it’s not fixed because i’ve got the same error.
There is no more error in error.log apache file but the same in fog.log
It worked with an older svn version
Thanks -
Please update and try again.
-
sorry but it’s not very clear for me, do i have to use domain\user now ?
As far as I understand the code you can go with either ‘user’ oder ‘domain\user’ (without the quotes). Both should work.
-
Actually,
You can have the user as: user@domain, domain\user, or user
-
@Tom-Elliott Thanks for your answer. I’ll try on monday and will tell you .
Thanks again -
I have no clue if the apostrophe in the password issue is fixed but I do want to inform my findings. I added a but of code to the client output that was intended to display the information to us in a more, dare I say friendly way. The issue I found was this one line of code was causing the data to be parsed by the html entity of the character being presented, such as ’ instead of '. Removing this one line corrects the output to display in the browser properly and I’m just guessing this was the failure of the apostrophe in the password

@Tom-Elliott apparently node is smart too, the code was & # 3 9 ; without the spaces
