Sullego FAQ & How-To

Configuring LDAP and ADS from UI

Note: First configure LDAP server and client from “yast”. To configure LDAP server and client, please refer to document “LDAP configuration from yast”.

LDAP configuration from UI

1. In the UI “services page”, go to LDAP settings and provide info for “Base DN, Root bind DN, Root password” and submit. This should come out with message “complete”.
2. Now go to “Accounts” section of UI and in “Authentication” page, select “Use LDAP” and “Use TLS”. Provide information “server (127.0.0.1), Base DN, Root binds DN, Root bind password” and select “Login SMB server to root DN”. After providing the information click on submit.
3. Now wait for one minute and go to “LDAP account administration page”, try to create a “group” and “user”. If “groups” and “users” are getting created then LDAP is configured successfully.

   Note: Currently we are not trouble shooting LDAP if we get errors. We are removing the LDAP data base and creating a new one from yast.

ADS configuration from the UI

1. To join sullego box in ADS, select “Use windows domain controller and authentication” and select the radio button “active directory”.
2. Now provide the information for “Domain/workgroup”, “Domain controller”, “ADS realm” and select “join domain”.
3. We should have an ADS user account who is member of “domain admin group” or ADS administrator account details to provide the same in the UI.
4. After providing the user account details, click on submit and wait for one minute. To check it is configured properly, go to groups page and check for ADS groups or from the shell type “wbinfo –g” will list ADS groups.
