ldap and Add Windows Clients fails. [SOLVED]

[mkugler]

Hello everyone, I installed last week for the first time a Zentyal server in version 6.1, basically everything is running now (I switched off Antivirus because all mail was ***Unchecked**). But my main problem is that I can't add the system with LDAP or a Windows client to the domain. In both cases I always get the message that the user (administrator) or the password should be wrong, but I can log on to the web interface and also to Zentyal itself with this account. I can't get any further here, does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks a lot in advance.

To join a client to the domain you have to use a domain account of the "Domain Admins" group not the administrative account used to manage the webadmin (this account doesn't belongs to the domain, it's a local account which belongs to the local server sudo group).

Don't try to use the Administrator account created by Zentyal. You have to create an user account and add it to the "Domain Admins" group whith webadmin. Use this account to joining the client machines.



Cheers!

One thing I also often come across: zentyal user names are case sensitive!
So it makes a difference if you use "administrator" or "Administrator"...

Thanks for the help, that was the problem, I created a new domain admin account and with this the setup of a Windows computer worked fine.

Thanks for the quick help.
