====== Ubuntu - Samba - Configure Samba Active Directory Domain Controller ====== This example configures on the environment bellow: * Domain name : SMB01 * Realm : SRV.SHAREWIZ * Hostname : smb.srv.sharewiz ---- ===== Install Samba ===== Install required packages sudo apt install samba krb5-config winbind smbclient and answer: # set Realm +------------------+ Configuring Kerberos Authentication +------------------+ | When users attempt to use Kerberos and specify a principal or user name | | without specifying what administrative Kerberos realm that principal | | belongs to, the system appends the default realm. The default realm may | | also be used as the realm of a Kerberos service running on the local | | machine. Often, the default realm is the uppercase version of the local | | DNS domain. | | | | Default Kerberos version 5 realm: | | | | SRV.SHAREWIZ_____________________________________________________________ | | | | | | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ # specify the hostname +------------------+ Configuring Kerberos Authentication +------------------+ | Enter the hostnames of Kerberos servers in the SRV.SHAREWIZ Kerberos | | realm separated by spaces. | | | | Kerberos servers for your realm: | | | | smb.srv.sharewiz_________________________________________________________ | | | | | | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ # specify the hostname +------------------+ Configuring Kerberos Authentication +------------------+ | Enter the hostname of the administrative (password changing) server for | | the SRV.SHAREWIZ Kerberos realm. | | | | Administrative server for your Kerberos realm: | | | | smb.srv.sharewiz_________________________________________________________ | | | | | | | +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ---- ===== Configure Samba AD DC ===== Rename or remove the default config. sudo mv /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.org samba-tool domain provision and # specify Realm Realm [SRV.SHAREWIZ]: # specify Domain name Domain [SRV]: SMB01 # Enter with default because it sets DC Server Role (dc, member, standalone) [dc]: # Enter with default because it uses Built-in DNS DNS backend (SAMBA_INTERNAL, BIND9_FLATFILE, BIND9_DLZ, NONE) [SAMBA_INTERNAL]: # if you set DNS forwarder, specify it, if not, specify [none] DNS forwarder IP address (write 'none' to disable forwarding) [127.0.0.53]: 192.168.1.8 # set admin password # Do not set trivial password, if you input it, configuration wizard shows error and stops Administrator password: Retype password: Looking up IPv4 addresses Looking up IPv6 addresses No IPv6 address will be assigned Setting up share.ldb Setting up secrets.ldb Setting up the registry Setting up the privileges database Setting up idmap db Setting up SAM db Setting up sam.ldb partitions and settings Setting up sam.ldb rootDSE Pre-loading the Samba 4 and AD schema Adding DomainDN: DC=srv,DC=sharewiz Adding configuration container Setting up sam.ldb schema Setting up sam.ldb configuration data Setting up display specifiers Modifying display specifiers Adding users container Modifying users container Adding computers container Modifying computers container Setting up sam.ldb data Setting up well known security principals Setting up sam.ldb users and groups Setting up self join Adding DNS accounts Creating CN=MicrosoftDNS,CN=System,DC=srv,DC=sharewiz Creating DomainDnsZones and ForestDnsZones partitions Populating DomainDnsZones and ForestDnsZones partitions Setting up sam.ldb rootDSE marking as synchronized Fixing provision GUIDs A Kerberos configuration suitable for Samba AD has been generated at /var/lib/samba/private/krb5.conf Once the above files are installed, your Samba AD server will be ready to use Server Role: active directory domain controller Hostname: smb NetBIOS Domain: SMB01 DNS Domain: srv.sharewiz DOMAIN SID: S-1-5-21-1186834725-214749683-942878845 Copy krb file. sudo cp /var/lib/samba/private/krb5.conf /etc/ Setup service which need to run. sudo systemctl stop smbd nmbd winbind systemd-resolved sudo systemctl disable smbd nmbd winbind systemd-resolved sudo systemctl unmask samba-ad-dc Removed /etc/systemd/system/samba-ad-dc.service.
