Hello

I'm trying to find the best way to join my OmniOS server to my AD domain network

I came across this Oracle page and I was wondering if anything similar exists for OmniOS r151030, etc.?

Overview of the nss_ad Naming Service Module - Oracle Solaris Administration: Naming and Directory Services

Thank you :)
Avery

Edit: I thought I would flesh out my post with where I'm at in the process right now:

I try to enable kclient, but this is what I get:

Code:
root@napp-it01:/usr/lib/ldap# kclient -T ms_ad

Starting client setup

---------------------------------------------------

Setting up /etc/krb5/krb5.conf.

Attempting to join 'NAPP-IT01' to the 'DOMAIN.COM' domain.

Password for Administrator@DOMAIN.COM:

Forest name found: domain.com

Site name not found.  Local DCs/GCs will not be discovered.

Creating the machine account in AD via LDAP.

Failed to create the AD object via LDAP.
---------------------------------------------------
Setup FAILED.
My /etc/nsswitch.conf:

Code:
passwd:     files ldap
group:      files ldap

# consult /etc "files" only if ldap is down.
hosts:      files [SUCCESS=return] dns

# Note that IPv4 addresses are searched for in all of the ipnodes databases
# before searching the hosts databases.
ipnodes:    files [SUCCESS=return] dns

networks:   files
protocols:  files
rpc:        files

                admin_server = 2012dc01.domain.com
                kpasswd_server = 2012dc01.domain.com
        }

[domain_realm]
        .domain.com = DOMAIN.COM

# how many versions of kdc.log to keep around (kdc.log.0, kdc.log.1, ...)

                versions = 10
        }

If you only want to join a Windows AD domain:

1. use dns in nsswitch.conf
There are different nsswitch templates in /etc.
"cp /etc/nsswitch.dns /etc/nsswitch.conf" activates the correct one for dns/ad

2. join the domain
ex via napp-it menu SMB > Services > Active Directory

Ohh, interesting

But is the connection adequate for logging in using domain users? I have file sharing working fine, I was hoping there'd be a way I could log in using a domain user.

# kclient -T ms_ad fails, unfortunately.

Thanks for your help

Edit: nsswitch.dns and nsswitch.conf are basically the same in my case (except 'ad' is after 'files' for passwd and group)

It looks like there's another issue with NTP that's complicating things

I'm noticing these error messages when I try to log in with an idmapped domain user:

upload_2020-1-2_8-34-27.png

You can see ntp is trying to run but doesn't appear to be able to - if I enable it, it still says its offline

Code:
root@napp-it01:~# svcs -v ntp
STATE          NSTATE        STIME    CTID   FMRI
offline        -             10:35:46      - svc:/network/ntp:default

root@napp-it01:~# svcadm -v enable ntp
svc:/network/ntp:default enabled.

root@napp-it01:~# svcs -v ntp
STATE          NSTATE        STIME    CTID   FMRI
offline        -             10:35:46      - svc:/network/ntp:default
my ntp.conf:

Code:
## NTP daemon configuration file. See ntp.conf(4) for full documentation.

## Always configure the drift file. It can take days for ntpd to completely
## stabilize and without the drift file, it has to start over on a reboot
## of if ntpd restarts.
driftfile /var/ntp/ntp.drift

## It is always wise to configure at least the loopstats and peerstats files.
## Otherwise when ntpd does something you don't expect there is no way to
## find out why.
statsdir /var/ntp/ntpstats/

## To track the events regarding the system clock, the protostats file can be useful
## as well.
filegen protostats file protostats type day enable

## The sysstats and rawstats output might be useful in debugging, but are
## not important otherwise.
filegen sysstats file sysstats type day enable
filegen rawstats file rawstats type day enable

## Default to ignore all for safety -- no incoming packets are trusted.
restrict default ignore
restrict -6 default ignore

## Permit localhost to connect to and manage ntpd
restrict 127.0.0.1      # Allow localhost full access
restrict -6 ::1         # Same, for IPv6

## Permit ntp server to reply to our queries
restrict source nomodify noquery notrap

# From Samba wiki - not sure if works.  Local clock. Note that is not the "localhost" address!
#server 127.127.1.0
#fudge  127.127.1.0 stratum 10

# Where to retrieve the time from
pool 192.168.1.2     burst iburst prefer minpoll 4
pool 192.168.1.3     burst iburst minpoll 4

# Enable the time sources only to only provide time to this host
restrict 192.168.1.2   mask 255.255.255.255    nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
restrict 192.168.1.3   mask 255.255.255.255    nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
/var/ntp/ntpstats is empty :(

I'm stumped.

Don't know about whether or not this has ntpdate available or not, but if you run ntpdate against your 192.168.1.[2|3] NTP servers what happens? Otherwise check the logs for the NTP service and see why it's failing. Here's what it should look like when being run against a working NTP server.

It looks like date/time matches my domain.

Now console complaining of botched LDAP config. Does anyone know how to clear LDAP cache? I do not know of any config files.

I am going to try this in the near future, does anyone know anything about it? idodeclare/adjoin-illumos
