> The current VCL application creates local user accounts for each reservation.
> There is a need to provide active directory authentication so as to provide
> access to domain resources like profile and network shares during the VCL
> reservation.
> This patch updates the VCL database by creating two additional tables:
> activedirectorydomain -> used to store active directory related information
> imageactivedirectorydomain -> used to store mapping of which images use which
> active directory domain.
> A new column is added to the reservation table to hold current active
> directory information for that particular reservation.
> The patch updates the VCL backed (vcld) to add functionality to make the
> windows images part of the active directory domain. It also sets the
> computer's hostname to be the same as defined in the database. This is done
> to prevent creation of a lot of temporary computer objects within Active
> Directory. The process of domain join add's two reboots (one for hostname
> update and one for domain join). After each reboot the cygwin_rebase scripts
> are run to reconfigure SSHD.
> The patch also updates the VCL frontend to allow management of Active
> directory domains within the system and also manage the association of VCL
> images and active directory domains. There is an option to enable moving
> computer objects to specific Active directory Organization Unit's for better
> grouping and ability to apply custom policies to custom group of images on
> the Active directory side. This option was working in Cygwin 1.5 but stopped
> working in Cygwin 1.7 due to some path issues. I left this option in the
> front-end while I look for resolution within Cygwin 1.7.
