Windows Sync with NT4?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So I have a successful Windows Sync agreement set up between Fedora DS and 
Active Directory, but I'm having difficulty setting up a sync agreement with 
an NT4 domain.  I'm at the point where I've entered the NT server info in the 
agreement form.  When I click Next, I get an error message:

"Unable to contact Active Directory server.  Continue?"

I think this means I've entered something wrong in the form, and I'm hoping 
someone can narrow down the possible things that can be entered in the form.

For instance, Windows Domain Name.  The example given in the documentation 
is "example.com".  However, NT domains do not conform to DNS standards.  Will 
it work if I enter the NT domain name, e.g., "example"?  If not, is there a 
workaround?

The next item is Windows Subtree.  This field gets filled in automatically 
with "cn=Users,dc=example" using the example above.  Again, can Windows Sync 
use this NT domain name, or does it require a DNS name?

For Domain Controller Host, what is expected?  If I put in the host name 
alone, I get the error message.  If I put in the fully qualified DNS host 
name, the application locks up and must be terminated with Task Manager (I'm 
using the console on a Windows XP machine).

Bind As seems to expect an LDAP distinguished name.  How can I translate the 
NT replication user name into LDAP terminology, i.e., what in NT corresponds 
with cn, ou, dn, etc.?

Thanks for any ideas.   -G.
