Hello: I am just wondering if anyone has any experience with Samba4 on OpenBSD.
I noticed that the package is available, and the included smb.conf file is set up for a standalone server. I have been tinkering with it, and have been able to get 2 separate machines (OpenBSD) set up as AD DC's. I have been able to "join" other machines (Windows 7 and a Mac) to the domain. I was also able to set up, and join, another OpenBSD machine as a domain member fileserver. But this is where I am stuck. While I can "see" the OpenBSD domain member from the Windows machine, I cannot access anything on it. The same is also true with the 2 DC's. When trying to access their shares, I get either RPC errors, or user not authorized type errors. Also, the one time I tried to login to the domain on the windows machine, it seemed unable to create the roaming profile (but this is just my faulty memory saying that). I think (and now I am talking way beyond my understanding) that the issue is how samba accounts interact (or don't) with local machine accounts. It appears that samba relies on winbind and nsswitch (which is unavailable in OpenBSD). But, samba now runs its own ldap server, and I was trying to get that working with ypldap (loosely from the advice at http://www.kernel-panic.it/openbsd/pdc/pdc4.html#pdc-4.3 and http://puffysecurity.com/wiki/ypldap.html). While it seems that I can get all the parts running, I am unable to pull account information from samba's ldap server through ypldap (no domain accounts with 'getent passwd', only local accounts). (I probably don't understand it well enough to set up ypldap.conf correctly?) So, I am just wondering, before I waste any more time, is this even possible? Or am I totally confused? Thanks [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/x-pkcs7-signature which had a name of smime.p7s]
