Here is what I know about this problem
1. Here is the crux of the problem, from the crash report;
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 510, in <module>
get_credentials(lp)
File "/usr/sbin/samba_dnsupdate", line 123, in get_credentials
raise e
RuntimeError: kinit for SERVERNAME$@DOMAIN-NAME.LOCAL failed (Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm)
2. Known bug with samba4, see here;
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba4/+bug/8096383. Did the suggested fix\work around, did not work
modify /etc/krb5.conf
------------ snip snip -------------------
[libdefaults]
default_realm = VMNET.US
dns_lookup_realm = false
dns_lookup_kdc = true
ticket_lifetime = 24h
renew_lifetime = 7d
forwardable = true
[realms]
VMNET.US = {
kdc = vmnet-dc1.vmnet.us
admin_server = vmnet-dc1.vmnet.us
}
[domain_realm]
.vmnet.us = VMNET.US
vmnet.us = VMNET.US
Made the changes, modified as needed to match my domain, restarted DNS, still suffering from the same issue, now what??
Supposedly zentyal to drop openladp and go with samba4 only, attempt to overcome this problem???
4.No official response on how to fix this issue
In the meantime any idea's anyone, anyone, anyone.
