Hi,
Hello Steve,

The only way I have found to enable those options is to provision with
"--use-rfc2307". We are performing an upgrade from Samba3 and I noticed
that the options were not grayed out after performing a classicupgrade, but
were grayed out after a "clean" provision. I finally figured out that the
classicupgrade always uses the "--use-rfc2307" flag. This flag will add the
option "idmap_ldb:use rfc2307 = yes" to your smb.conf, however, it has been
my experience that adding that to smb.conf post-provision does not enable
the UNIX Attributes options, so the provision option must do something
else. I would like to know if there is a way to enable this after the fact,
but I've not come up with anything yet. I need to complete further testing
on the actual authentication of Linux clients, Apache, RADIUS and OpenVPN,
but have run into a show-stopper with DNS replication and have moved all my
efforts to this for the time being. I was able to get Linux clients
authenticating via winbind, but this was before I found out about the
"--use-rfc2307" option and winbind was using auto-generated UIDs and GIDs.
Any notes you come up with would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Thomas.

Provisioning with --use-rfc2307 also loads the "NIS" schema into AD and thus allows you to set that attributes via ADUC. To do the same after provision you would need to import the schema after provision. The skeleton of it is in /usr/local/samba/share/setup/ypServ30.ldif
on a default install.

Hello everyone,

I am trying to figure out a way to migrate NIS maps to SAMBA4 (I want to
replace NIS with SAMAB4 for a Linux domain. I have researched a fair bit on
the web but have not found out any solutions and was hoping I could find
some help here. What I have found so far pertains to Windows
implementations of Active Directory.

Here are my questions.

1) Is it possible with a default install of SAMBA4 or do I need to extend
the schema?
2) I notice there is a Unix attributes tab for users, when using Active
Directory users and groups to administer the Samba4 AD, but I am unable to
change the properties. Is there any way I can enable this?
3) Has anyone done this and if so, can you offer me some pointers?

Many thanks!

Steve
