samba domain integration
-
Well that’s an interesting catch. The difference I see is that the output from the old client says
MachineAccountOU: (NULL)whereas the output from the new client seams to be empty but not NULL. Later on it fails withNetpJoinDomain: OU is specified but couldn’t get NT5 DC
@Jbob Can you think of why this is different? You know the client source code a lot better than I do! Maybe OU is send as empty string (“”) instead of NULL in the new client. -
On the client windows xp i try this command nltest.exe :
nltest.exe /dsgetdc:samba_domain
DC: \SAMBA
Address: \SAMBA
Dom Name: SAMBA_DOMAIN
The command completed successfully -
@Uncle-Frank Just for test i put “NULL” then “(NULL)” into “Organizational Unit” in AD configuration without success
-
Bug confirmed and isolated. Ticket has been made here:
https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-client/issues/22
Basic explanation:
For some reason the samba LDAP domain is returning an error code of 1355 instead of 2 or 50 (which correspond to OU errors). On OU errors the client will try using a null OU. I just have to add 1355 to the cases of OU errors. -
@Jbob Hello, does it means that the new client will works now or do i have to wait the new “patched” client ?
Any way thanks for your help -
@plegrand The patch will be applied next release.
-
@Jbob Just for information , as i don’t know if the client have the patch which permit to join samba domain, i made a test today without success.
Same problem. But may be I’ve to wait a little. -
The patch will only be applied on the next official release 0.9.6 or 0.10.0
-
@Jbob thanks for your answer, for the moment i use the 4103 .
Thanks again -
@Jbob is there a date for this new release ?
-
No release date is planned. For now keep using the legacy client. The next release of the client will be v0.10.0 which will include OSX + Linux compatibility.
