Can you give some specific details?
Have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVT-0t4d48I for a demo of using likewise to join an AD domain. What is different from your situation compared to the video?
How did you configure your AD domain?

As a sidenote: don't you think it is kind of strange to try and mimic a Windows environment with 100% linux server and client?

[afzalbhutto]

I am not working with Microsoft AD . I have installed zentyal 3.0 as domain controller and ubuntu 11.4 as client. when i am going to join ubuntu client to zentyal domain then it is showing errors. some times DNS_error or some time Kerbros errors.

i am joining ubuntu using likewise 6.

why aren't you using  pam lpdap

[afzalbhutto]

yes i have enable PAM , but still problem exist.. even windows clients joined successfully

[half_life]

When using AD, the domain controller IP must be the first DNS search entry in the client. Might this be your problem?

[afzalbhutto]

I defined zentyal DNS ip as primary on ubuntu client. I told you that i have successfully joined windows 7 pc to zentyal domain

Error : DNS_ERROR_BAD_PACKET  [code 0x0000251e]

A bad packet was recieved from a DNS server. Potentially the request Address does not exist.

Do you happen to use the domain.local as domain name?
When searching on the error you receive, I get the following blogpost:

(Samba4 is a replacement for AD, so you can expect similar behaviour for ubuntu clients on Samba4 as you wpould get from AD)

I resolve the problem to join ubuntu.


First : Access to domain users as sudoers

[/size]$ sudo nano /etc/sudoers[/color][/size]%YOURDOMAINNAME\\domain^admins ALL=(ALL) ALL

Second : Set IP Address
[/size]Gedit /etc/network/interfaces[/font][/size][/font][/color]
[/size]iface eth1 inet static        address 192.168.10.10        netmask 255.255.255.0Third : DNS names from the file/etc/resolv.conf search mehran.edunameserver 192.168.10.1
3Rd : Join Domain

sudo domainjoin-cli join mehran.edu Administrator

It is succed say restart, after restarting the ubuntu client than not showing domain login screen? But i iam able to login localy

[ichat]

[afzalbhutto]
