Hello all,

We are playing with trust-setups in our lab-environment. I was hoping
to create a setup with a "single computer active directory  domain"
acting as a domain controller and file-server (SMB and NFS), with a
one-way trust relationship to our main ipa-realm. That is this (mini)
AD-Realm trusts IPA and not the other way around.

I am not sure it will work though, so far windows will not resolve my
IPA users, even thought the trust-setup seems to validate (but neither
are ipa, so there is something wrong with the current config). If we
define a two-way trust relationship we are not able to do this:

Resolving IPA users on Windows machines is not supported and is not in
the scope of trust to Active Directory feature.

I know that full windows-logon won’t work. But I had hopes that file
services in question would. If manual user-mapping (via ksetup or
something similar, that can make windows-logon with kerberos
credentials work) is possible that would suffice as well.

See note at this page:
https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/using_external_red_hat_utilities_with_identity_management/setting-up-samba-on-an-idm-domain-member_using-external-red-hat-utilities-with-idm#setting-up-samba-on-an-idm-domain-member_using-external-red-hat-utilities-with-idm

And how about samba, does anyone know, if such a setup would work
there?  That is: A samba AD populated with the real users and groups,
and a Microsoft Server running it’s own AD trusting the samba realm,
but not the other way around? (yes I know that the server could join
the samba domain instead, but this is not the point in this
lab-excersise).

Samba AD implements most of AD DC compatibility, so it would work.

Is there any information about the work on IPA-to-IPA trust? I read
with great enjoyment lasts year’s progress report on this:
