I can replicate this same behavior in RHEL 8.6, we should definitely report this to them. I'm still looking at a possible workaround. I noticed previous Samba versions were based on the 4.14 release and don't appear to have samba-tool. Is it possible to (temporarily) use the traditional "net" command to achieve what you want? I think we will look at the various 4.15 versions of Samba out there and figure out exactly where this broke upstream. |

hi, no, i guess the net command can't help me. all documentation i have found are written for the samba-tool [root@ad ~]# samba-tool domain provision --server-role=dc --use-rfc2307 --dns-backend=SAMBA_INTERNAL --realm=SAMDOM.EXAMPLE.COM --domain=SAMDOM --adminpass=Passw0rd ERROR(<class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>): uncaught exception - No module named 'samba.samdb' File "/usr/bin/samba-tool", line 44, in <module> retval = cmd._run("samba-tool", subcommand, *args) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/samba/netcmd/__init__.py", line 235, in _run return self.subcommands[subcommand]._run( File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/samba/netcmd/main.py", line 36, in __getitem__ fromlist=['cmd_%s' % attr]), File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/samba/netcmd/domain.py", line 43, in <module> from samba.join import join_RODC, join_DC File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/samba/join.py", line 22, in <module> from samba.samdb import SamDB |

Ah, figured this out. RHEL 8 (and thus Rocky 8) don't support running Samba as a domain controller: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/deploying_different_types_of_servers/assembly_using-samba-as-a-server_deploying-different-types-of-servers Rocky's Samba package will be identical to the RHEL one, as they're built from the same sources. I notice previous versions of Samba in the distro didn't even include "samba-tool", I'm honestly not sure why it's included in this version. The recommended course if you want a domain controller is FreeIPA with a trust relationship to your existing Windows domain. Failing that, it's possible to build Samba from source code with the feature enabled. Thanks, -Skip |
