Samba4 Multi-Master replication

Morten Kramer
Hi guys,


I'm trying to get the Samba4 multi-master replication to work.



I set up the primary domain controller using this howto (under CentOS
6.2 x64):


http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO



I installed bind 9.8.3 and enabled encrypted dns updates.




I set up another VM with the same CentOS version and oriented myself on
this howto:

http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO/Join_a_domain_as_a_DC

to join the second DC into the domain. I edited /etc/resolv.conf and set
the nameserver to the IP of the primary DC (bind dns server).


Basic replication seems to work (not doing the rsync for sysvol yet).
However, when i take the primary DC offline (bind keeps running), I
can't use any of the .msc domain admin tools anymore.

I always get an error message, telling me that there is no RPC server
available.
When i run gpmc.msc i can choose the DC i want to work on and I can see
the secondary one, but it will come back with the RPC error.

I had Wireshark running on one of the Windows7 clients. It seems like it
tries to talk to the 2nd DC (DCERPC packets). But i'm not an expert in
packet analysis, could somebody give me a hint what to look for here?



User authentication does still work and Kerberos tickets are generated
by the 2nd DC.



I can find this in the log:


../source4/dsdb/kcc/kcc_topology.c:1402: failed to find nCName attribute
of object
CN=ac7bf69c-9458-4205-acba-6fe172412d1b,CN=Partitions,CN=Configuration,DC=aeriatest2,DC=dc,DC=loc
../source4/dsdb/kcc/kcc_topology.c:3158: failed to color vertices:
NT_STATUS_INTERNAL_DB_CORRUPTION
../source4/dsdb/kcc/kcc_topology.c:3415: failed to create connections:
NT_STATUS_INTERNAL_DB_CORRUPTION
...
Warning: 60 extra bytes in incoming RPC request
../source4/rpc_server/drsuapi/dcesrv_drsuapi.c:74: doing DsBind with
system_session



Do i need to configure something extra, so the secondary DC will be able
to act as an RPC server?





Thanks,
freezer

Hi,

With your setup DNS is the single point of failure, because with the
(default) DLZ setup bind9 is able to serve DNS records only when samba4
is running on that box.
My recommendation would be to try to set up DNS on the second DC too.

Regards.

You  always need to have two Samba4/dns and the entries of both dns in your
clients network settings too.

Re: Samba4 Multi-Master replication ( slave setup possible ?)

L.P.H. van Belle
Is it possible to create slave DNS servers of the samba server.

I would like to setup like this. ( this is also my running setup with samba 3)

                  SLAVEDNS1 \
SAMBA(DNS)  /  Clients pc's with dns servers slave1 and slave2
                \ SLAVEDNS2 /

I my case slavedns(1) is also master of an external lan which is replicated to slavedns2.
This was needed because of security and the way i extract the external dns settings,
dont ask why, i just created a solution which my ICT company could not.

so the question is, can i do this with samba4 and bind DLZ setup?

Louis

Short answer: Yes

Re: Samba4 Multi-Master replication

In reply to this post by Daniel Müller
Thanks for the info,


I did not try this setup yet.


Anyway,

Would you guys recommend a replication setup for production yet? The
samba internal dns implementation being still work in progresss?


I really wonder if I should just set up a single DC for starters and
wait until the whole DNS will be part of samba.
This Domain will only cater to about 100-150 clients and one DC should
be easily able to deal with this workload?!


A second DC would certainly a good idea, but i really wonder if it's
worth the hassle right now.

I can just take daily snapshots of a single DC and roll back if anything
goes terribly wrong.




Thanks for your input!

Re: Samba4 Multi-Master replication

Daniel Müller
I think a replication is only worth if you need high available servers.
If your dc fail and your clients can wait you can do a single one.
