Re: Configuring RHEL servers to authenticate with Windows Server 2008Active Directory

I've used this in the past to good effect with RHEL5.3 and W2K3. I'm sure you'll have to make adjustments with W2K8, but it may be a good starting point.

Thanks for your reply.

I would like the account and group information to be maintained in AD.
Possibly later on we'll implement kerberos too.

If you just care about authentication and not accounts, I'd set up kerberos
auth - much easier.  I have no experience setting up LDAP auth, sorry.

Subject: Configuring RHEL servers to authenticate with Windows Server 2008
     Active Directory

Hello all.


I'd like to set my RHEL 4 and 5 servers up to authenticate with our Windows
server 2008 Active Directory. Using "authconfig --update --enableldap
--enableldapauth --ldapserver=ldap.example.com--ldapbasedn=dn=example,dn=com"
and adding "binddn" and "bindpw" to the /etc/ldap.conf file, it looks like the linux box is connecting correctly to the AD server. But running "getent
passwd <some-linux-user-defined-on-AD>" doesn't return any result.

I'm suspecting that maybe it's my nss_ldap attribute mappings that are not
correct. I have no attribute mapping defined, since I would think that
there
would be some default mappings that would work. Are there any default
mapping, and in case what are they? Or maybe "authconfig" set up these
mappings automatically? Any advice is appreciated.

Best regards,
Kenneth Holter
