Hello guys,

We have written a new entry in the official documentation where we propose a workaround until Zentyal 8.0 is released or Samba fixes the bug in Ubuntu 20.04. Below you have the links:

Hello,

I just configured my own Ubuntu Servers with Samba 4.17.2.

You have good documentation here:

https://samba.tranquil.it/doc/en/samba_config_server/samba_conf_index.html#samba-ad-under-debian

And if you use Ubuntu Server 22.02 like I do, you can use this repo:

https://launchpad.net/~linux-schools/+archive/ubuntu/samba-latest

So this is my goodbye to Zentyal as, in fact, I prefer my own configurations and to have a better control.

Thank you everyone!

So the workaround involves setting up an entire extra domain controller?
That seems more then a little ham-fisted to me. 

Samba cannot be just updated for this on a component level?

There's talk on backporting the fix on ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1993934
We need to wait for this?

What is the timeline on Zentyal 8 currently?

I'm running into this right now but am currently just electing not to update to W11 22h2. I really feel there has to be a better way.

Hi guys,

We have added an additional workaround in the documentation that allows upgrading Samba to 4.16. As you will see, this workaround is easier than the other but it has some points to consider.

So, all of you have two ways to approach this bug and it depends on you what way you chose.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best regards, Daniel Joven.

Hi,

For me, after a long research, feature and process testing, and more than 20 lab test migrations of my current systems (and after completing the first production transparent migration), my alternative is Univention (https://www.univention.com/).

Univention even has a plugin called adtakeover, that can migrate a whole domain (users, groups, passwords, etc.)

On their forums I noticed that you had some issues with the migration to Univention. You got no response there. Did you solve those issues? And if you did then how?

Hi, sorry for the delay.  I don't monitor this forum anymore...

Sure, I just made a simple script to correct the homedirectory attribute after migrating to Univention.  Just delete the attribute, save, insert attribute, save.

Works like a charm, ty

See that mentioned package on launchpad 2:4.13.17~dfsg-0ubuntu1.20.04.2 is offered as update to Zentyal. (7 and 6)
Will test this out of production hours.

Hi,

Did you just join the domain, or have you made a comprehensive test with GPO, Shares, Permissions, domain replication, etc.?

thank you.

I do the test, the only you can't do it is change password vía ctrl + alt  + del.

Hi,

I just want to inform you that Ubuntu has released the packages that fix the Windows 11 bug with Samba, so if you did not apply any of the proposal workarounds, you just need to update your system packages.

Best regards, Daniel Joven.

Yes I can confirm Samba update installed and then 22h2 works fine, never applied any workarounds.

[fmoreira86]

Yep!

I also confirm!

I commented out the repositories that I added for the initial workaround, once Samba level catches up to that level, it will resume keeping up to date? anything else I should do other than comment out the repositories?
