I'm trying to join an Ubuntu 16.04 server to a Windows 2003 R2 domain by following the Ubuntu SSSD and Active Directory Guide. My admin says that from the controller side, it is part of the domain. But SSSD can't seem to start and net ads join
fails.
The krb5.conf
was modified by the installer and now has this:
kyle@Server21:~$ cat /etc/krb5.conf
[libdefaults]
default_realm = COMAPNYNAME.LOCAL
On a previous install I thought there was something else in [realms]
that was asked for during the install but I can't remember what and it wasn't asked for this time around.
My smb.conf
:
[global]
## Browsing/Identification ###
# Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
workgroup = COMPANYNAME
client signing = yes
client use spnego = yes
kerberos method = secrets and keytab
realm = COMPANYNAME.LOCAL
security = ads
My sssd.conf
:
kyle@Server21:~$ sudo cat /etc/sssd/sssd.conf
[sssd]
services = nss, pam
config_file_version = 2
domains = COMPANYNAME.LOCAL
[domain/COMPANYNAME.LOCAL]
id_provider = ad
access_provider = ad
override_homedir = /home/%d/%u
Though the SSSD service can't seem to start:
kyle@Server21:~$ systemctl status sssd.service
● sssd.service - System Security Services Daemon

And since the guide says that ownership and permissions are important:
kyle@Server21:~$ sudo ls -la /etc/sssd
total 12
drwx--x--x 2 sssd sssd 4096 Jun 21 14:34 .
drwxr-xr-x 103 root root 4096 Jun 22 10:21 ..
-rw------- 1 root root 172 Jun 21 14:22 sssd.conf
My nsswitch.conf
:
kyle@Server21:~$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:

My hosts
:
kyle@Server21:~$ cat /etc/hosts

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
Here is where the trouble starts. Using sudo
to run kinit
results in the following:
kyle@Server21:~$ sudo kinit adminstrator
kinit: Client '[email protected]' not found in Kerberos database while getting initial credentials
It will authenticate if I drop the sudo
though:
kyle@Server21:~$ kinit -V administrator
Using default cache: /tmp/krb5cc_1000
Using principal: [email protected]
Password for [email protected]:
Authenticated to Kerberos v5
And I can verify the ticket:
kyle@Server21:~$ klist
Ticket cache: FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_1000
Default principal: [email protected]
Valid starting Expires Service principal
06/23/2016 13:41:55 06/23/2016 23:41:55 krbtgt/[email protected]
renew until 06/24/2016 13:41:48
But when I try to join the domain:
kyle@Server21:~$ sudo net ads join -k
Failed to join domain: failed to lookup DC info for domain 'COMPANYNAME.LOCAL' over rpc: An internal error occurred.
I had previously received the NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
message mentioned in the guide but was able to solve that by modifying my hosts
file.
The guide talks about verifying that the computer account was created in the Active Directory. And my admin says that he can see the machine just fine so I believe that is okay. The second verification option does not tell me what I'm supposed to get back from that command but I don't receive anything so I suppose it isn't working.
So where am I going wrong here?
Edit:
I'm not sure what I did, but SSSD is now running.
