[Freeipa-users] Question regarding “Samba on an IdM domain member”
Hello,
beginning of March I have received support running Samba on an IdM domain member from
Alexander. Back then my problem was what Alexander pinpoints in his
text https://vda.li/en/posts/2019/03/24/Kerberos-host-to-realm-translation/ under
"Mixed realm deployments” where the Linux machine running Samba was in the wrong DNS
zone.
After having fixed this things are running fine.
Now it came as it already was obvious back then and what is well noted already in the
RedHat
Docs https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-en/red_hat_enterprise_lin...
is stated “AD users logged into a Windows machine can not access Samba shares hosted on an
IdM domain member”.
So the customer has now stumbled exactly over this and I just wanted to confirm that my
understanding of this section in the docs is correct and that there’s no way to ensure
that an AD user on a Windows machine can access the shares on the Samba machine joined to
IdM.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Thomas
