Hi guys,

I thought I would look into moving from running 2 naming services (LDAP and AD) and transferring to AD.
I see I have two options:

1) Setup the "NIS unix service on Windows" and use ldapclient to point to AD server. This looks a good solution which I see many people have tried, but the only downfall is I would lose the automount maps, which I can see how they can be import into AD.


2) Use the Solaris 11 nss_ad Naming Service module.
This may work, but I have had no luck yet, so just wonder if any one has got it working yet, since Oracle Support and the internet does not have any information about it! I am using oracle.com doc site: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/821-1455/adsetup-10.html#scrolltoc

    - Setup Windows 2008 Server
- After the following command krb5.conf is created and a machine is created in AD

    - #/usr/sbin/kclient -T ms_ad
    Starting client setup

    Setting up /etc/krb5/krb5.conf.
    Attempting to join 'SOLARIS' to the 'TEST1.INT' domain.
    Password for administra...@test1.int:
    Forest name found: test1.int
    Site name not found.  Local DCs/GCs will not be discovered.

    Computer account 'SOLARIS' already exists in the 'TEST1.INT' domain.
    Do you wish to recreate this computer account ? [y/n]: y

Would you like to delete any sub-object found for this computer account ? [y/n]: y
    Looking to see if the machine account contains other objects...
    Creating the machine account in AD via LDAP.

    Warning: unable to set smb domain, server and password information.
    Warning: unable to create DNS records for client.
This could mean that 'testaw1.test1.int' is not included as a 'nameserver' in the /etc/resolv.conf file or some other type of error.

    Setup COMPLETE.
