How to create domain in linux

[Asif]

In Linux we can creat two types of Domains. One is puerly Linux based(Server and Clients both are using Linux OS) and Second is Linux based Domain Controller Server is running Linux OS and clients are using Windows OS.


Steps:

check samba is installed or not by
rpm -q samba
if not then install from cd and open
vi /etc/samba/smb. conf
and set these configurations
==============
SIMPLE SAMBA
==============
Set WorkGroup
Set Directory
add user
set password with # smbpasswd -a khan
============ ========= =====
SAMBA AS DOMAIN CONTROLLER
============ ========= =====
Set domain name
enable netlogon folder + also create it
local master yes
OS level 64
domain master yes
prefer master yes
domain logons yes
wins support yes
Now add machine account
# useradd -M -s /bin/nologin computername$
if it’s not allowing you to create user with $ then create it without $ sign
then edit /ect/passwd and place $ sign in front of your user & it’s directory and save it.
Now Generate machine accunt
# smbpasswd -am computername
Now check log file
#tail -f /etc/samaba/ smbpasswd
Now you will see your computer account with $ sign which is necessary.
create a New user account to allow windows machine to log in to domain.
Let say
# useradd khan
Now set samba password not linux password
#smbpasswd -a khan
password—pakistan
Have fun———>100 % tested and written

TIP:After all this remove the $ sign placed in front of user and directory–> /etc/passwd


That's all, cheers
