Active Directory access via FreeNAS almost works
« on: February 10, 2010, 04:17:36 pm »
I finally got Active Directory working in FreeNAS. I figured out you can put an IP address where it asks for the hostname. It's one less DNS lookup which is fine by me.

Code: [Select]
MS Active Directory informations

Results for net rpc testjoin:
Password:
Join to 'OCTEN' is OK

Ping winbindd to see if it is alive:
Ping to winbindd succeeded on fd 4

Check shared secret:
checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded

List of imported users

Blah
Fake
Name
Here

Now while Active Directory works, Samba doesn't seem to understand this as you can see by this error from these settings: http://badmarkup.com/ebox/freenas/samba-settings-in-freenas.png. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but at least the Active Directory users show up. If you're wondering about LDAP, it seems impossible at the moment as I've not seen anyone able to get it to work.

Oops, can a mod move this to the Tips and Tricks area? That's where this goes correct?
