Thread: ADS connection problems

  1. #1

    Default ADS connection problems

    I am trying to use ADS for authentication and i have strange problems.

    It works fine for a few days and then it stopped working and has connection problems.

    So first i have questions to solve maybe my problems:

    I found this in the Open-E Knowledgebase:

    There are no special settings you need to do. You need to sync with the ADS using Open-E GUI (Configuration->NAS resources) and chose the ADS option. Then, enter the realm (Domain+user) KDC IP and administrative account username and password.

    I don't understand the realm definition. Domain+user???? Which user? Can someone show me an example?
    Our realm is "ims.ea". I think ....

    In my logs i found this:

    kerberos_kinit_password ULTRIX$@IMS.EA failed: Preauthentication failed

    It is correct to disable kerberos preauthentication on ADS server side for my administrative user (only)???

    But my main problem is this:

    Database is empty or connection error!

    I see this when i am trying to start or restart the authentication method. It was working several days fine and now it does not work again ....

    May I ask if you have set DNS address to be your ADS IP?
