-Subject: NT Domain Logons
-===========================================================================
-
-As of 1.9.18alpha1, Samba supports logins for NT 3.51 and 4.0 Workstations,
-without the need, use or intervention of NT Server. This document describes
-how to set this up. Over the continued development of the 1.9.18alpha
-series, this process (and therefore this document) should become simpler.
-
-One useful thing to do is to get this version of Samba up and running
-with Win95 profiles, as you would for the current stable version of
-Samba (currently at 1.9.17p4), and is fully documented. You will need
-to set up encrypted passwords. Even if you don't have any Win95 machines,
-using your Samba Server to store the profile for one of your NT Workstation
-users is a good test that you have 1.9.18alpha1 correctly configured *prior*
-to attempting NT Domain Logons.
-
-The support is still experimental, so should be used at your own risk.
-
-NT is not as robust as you might have been led to believe: during the
-development of the Domain Logon Support, one person reported having to
-reinstall NT from scratch: their workstation had become totally unuseable.
-
-[further reports on ntsec@iss.net by independent administrators showing
- similar symptoms lead us to believe that the SAM database file may be
- corruptible. this _is_ recoverable (or, at least the machine is accessible),
- by deleting the SAM file, under which circumstances all user account details
- are lost, but at least the Administrator can log in with a blank password.
- this is *not* possible except if the NT system is installed in a FAT
- partition.]
-
-This *has* been reported to the NTBUGTRAQ@LISTSERV.NTBUGTRAQ.COM digest.

-Domain Logons using 1.9.18alpha1
-================================
-
-1) compile samba with -DNTDOMAIN
-
-2) set up samba with encrypted passwords: see ENCRYPTION.txt (probably out
- of date: you no longer need the DES libraries, but other than that,
- ENCRYPTION.txt is current).
-
- at this point, you ought to test that your samba server is accessible
- correctly with encrypted passwords, before progressing with any of the
- NT workstation-specific bits: it's up to you.
-
-3) [ for each workstation, add a line to smbpasswd with a username of MACHINE$
- and a password of "machine". this process will be automated in further
- releases. lkcl02nov97 - done, as of 1.9.18alpha11! added new options
- "domain hosts allow/deny" too :-) ]
-
-4) if using NT server to log in, run the User Manager for Domains, and
- add the capability to "Log in Locally" to the policies, which you would
- have to do even if you were logging in to another NT PDC instead of a
- Samba PDC.
-
-5) set up the following parameters in smb.conf
-
-; substitute your workgroup here
- workgroup = SAMBA
-
-; a description of domain sids can be found elsewhere.
-; you **MUST** begin the domain SID with S-1-5-21.
-; the rest is up to you.
- domain sid = S-1-5-21-123-456-789-123
-
-; tells workstations to use SAMBA as its Primary Domain Controller.
- domain logons = yes
-
-6) make sure samba is running before the next step is carried out. if
- this is your first time, just for fun you might like to switch the
- debug log level to about 10. the NT pipes produces some very pretty
- output when decoding requests and generating responses, which would
- be particularly useful to see in tcpdump at some point.
-
-7) In the NT Network Settings, change the domain to SAMBA. Do
- not attempt to create an account using the other part of the dialog:
- it will fail at present.
-
- You should get a wonderful message saying "Welcome to the SAMBA Domain."
-
- If you don't, then please first increase your debug log levels and also
- get a tcpdump (or preferably NetMonitor) trace and examine it carefully.
- You should see a NETLOGON, a SAMLOGON on UDP port 138. If you don't,
- then you probably don't have "domain logons = yes" or there is some other
- problem in resolving the NetBIOS name SAMBA<1c>.
-
- On port 139, you should see a LSA_OPEN_POLICY, two LSA_QUERY_INFOs (one
- for a domain SID of S-1-3... and another for S-1-5) and then an LSA_CLOSE
- or two.
-
- You may see a pipe connection to a wksta service being refused: this
- is acceptable, we have found. You may also see a "Net Server Get Info"
- being issued on the srvsvc pipe.
-
- Assuming you got the Welcome message, go through the obligatory reboot...
-
-8) When pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete, the NT login box should have three entries.
- If there is a delay of about twenty seconds between pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete
- and the appearance of this login dialog, then there might be a problem:
- at this stage the workstation is issuing an LSA_ENUMTRUSTEDDOMAIN request
-
- The domain box should have two entries: the hostname and the SAMBA domain.
- Any local accounts are under the hostname domain, from which you will be
- able to shut down the machine etc. At present, we do not specify that
- the NT user logging in is a member of any groups, so will have no
- priveleges, including the ability to shut down the machine [lkcl02nov97 -
- done, as of samba-1.9.18alpha3! see "domain admin/guest users" and
- "domain groups" parameters].
-
- Select the SAMBA domain, and type in a valid username and password for
- which there is a valid entry in the samba server's smbpasswd LM/NT OWF
- database. At present, the password is ignored, to allow access to the
- domain, but *not* ignored for accesses to Samba's SMB services: that's
- completely separate from the SAM Logon process. Even if you log in a
- user to a domain, your users will still need to connect to Samba SMB
- shares with valid username / passwords, for that share.
-
- You should see an LSA_REQ_CHAL, followed by LSA_AUTH2, LSA_NET_SRV_PWSET,
- and LSA_SAM_LOGON. The SAM Logon will be particularly large (the response
- can be approximately 600 bytes) as it contains user info.
-
- Also, there will probably be a "Net Server Get Info" and a "Net Share Enum"
- amongst this lot. If the SAM Logon is successful, the dialog should
- disappear, and a standard SMB connection established to download the
- profile specified in the SAM Logon (if it was).
-
- At this point, you _may_ encounter difficulties in creating a remote
- profile, and the login may terminate (generating an LSA_SAM_LOGOFF). If
- this occurs, then either find an existing profile on the samba server and
- copy it into the location specified by the "logon path" smb.conf parameter
- for the user logging in, or log in on the local machine, and use the
- System | Profiles control panel to make a copy of the _local_ profile onto
- the samba server. This process is described and documented in the NT
- Help Files.
-
-9) Play around. Look at the Samba Server: see if it can be found in the
- browse lists. Check that it is accessible; run some applications.
- Generally stress things. Laugh a lot. Logout of the NT machine
- (generating an LSA_SAM_LOGOFF) and log back in again. Try logging in
- two users simultaneously. Try logging the same user in twice.
- Make Samba fall over, and then send bug reports to us, with NTDOM: at
- the start of the subject line, as "samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au".
-
-Your reports, testing, patches, criticism and encouragement will help us
-get this right.
