[Samba] splitting services in samba4
Question: Right now samba4 is great as in all-in-one solution (samba, kerberos, ldap, dns) into one service. Is it possible to split it up so that for example, I run openldap on one server, kerberos on another server, and then dns/samba on a third server? br, Quinn -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
Re: [Samba] splitting services in samba4
Thanks for the quick response. So I guess if you wanted high availability, you would either have to implement a PDC/BDC solution with samba4 or use samba4 on top of a corosync/pacemaker cluster. Is this correct? br, Quinn On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 10:43 AM, Gémes Géza g...@kzsdabas.hu wrote: 2012-07-11 10:27 keltezéssel, Quinn Plattel írta: Question: Right now samba4 is great as in all-in-one solution (samba, kerberos, ldap, dns) into one service.

They also expect a schema (the AD schema) which is incompatible with OpenLDAP.

Re: [Samba] splitting services in samba4
Assuming samba 4 supports them, watch out for your FSMO roles; each role will be specific to one server in the domain. Recovering from the loss of a server that currenty owns one or more of the FMSO roles is a little trickier than just booting another peer-DC to handle requests.
