The Microsoft Windows operating system has a number of features that impose specific challenges
to interoperability with operating system on which Samba is implemented. This chapter deals
explicitly with the mechanisms Samba-3 (version 3.0.8 and later) uses to overcome one of the
key challenges in the integration of Samba servers into an MS Windows networking environment.
This chapter deals with Identify Mapping (IDMAP) of Windows Security Identifers (SIDs)
to UNIX UIDs and GIDs.
</para>

<para>
To ensure good sufficient coverage each possible Samba deployment type will be discussed.
This is followed by an overview of how the IDMAP facility may be implemented.
</para>

<para>
<indexterm><primary>network client</primary></indexterm>
The IDMAP facility is usually of concern where more than one Samba server (or Samba network client)
is installed in the one Domain. Where there is a single Samba server do not be too concerned regarding
the IDMAP infrastructure - the default behavior of Samba is nearly always sufficient.
</para>

<para>
<indexterm><primary>one domain</primary></indexterm>
The use of IDMAP is important where the Samba server will be accessed by workstations or servers from
more than one domain, in which case it is important to run winbind so it can handle the resolution (ID mapping)
of foreign SIDs to local UNIX UIDs and GIDs.
</para>

<para>
<indexterm><primary>winbindd</primary></indexterm>
The use of the IDMAP facility requires that the <command>winbindd</command> be executed on Samba start-up.

<indexterm><primary>Server Types</primary></indexterm>
There are four (4) basic server deployment types, as documented in <link linkend="ServerType">the chapter
on Server Types and Security Modes</link>.
</para>

	<title>Stand-Alone Samba Server</title>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>stand-alone server</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>Active Directory</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>NT4 Domain</primary></indexterm>
	A stand-alone Samba server is an implementation that is not a member of a Windows NT4 Domain,
	a Windows 200X Active Directory Domain, or of a Samba Domain.
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>IDMAP</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>identity</primary></indexterm>
	By definition, this means that users and groups will be created and controlled locally and
	the identity of a network user must match a local UNIX/Linux user login. The IDMAP facility
	is therefore of little to no interest, winbind will not be necessary, and the IDMAP facility
	will not be relevant or of interest.

	Samba-3 can act as a Windows NT4 PDC or BDC thereby providing domain control protocols that
	are compatible with Windows NT4. Samba-3 file and print sharing protocols are compatible with
	all version of Microsoft Windows products. Windows NT4, as with Microsoft Active Directory,
	extensively makes use of Windows security identifiers (SIDs).

	<indexterm><primary>UID</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>GID</primary></indexterm>
	Samba-3 Domain Member servers and clients must interact correctly with MS Windows SIDs. Incoming
	Windows SIDs must be translated to local UNIX UIDs and GIDs. Outgoing information from the Samba
	server must provide to MS Windows clients and servers appropriate SIDs.

	<indexterm><primary>ADS</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>winbind</primary></indexterm>
	A Samba member of a Windows networking domain (NT4-style or ADS) can be configured to handle 
	identity mapping in a variety of ways. The mechanism is will use depends on whether or not
	the <command>winbindd</command> daemon is used, and how the winbind functionality is configured.
	The configuration options are briefly described here:
	</para>

	<variablelist>
		<varlistentry><term>Winbind is not used, users and groups are local: &smbmdash; </term>
			<listitem>
				<para>
				Where <command>winbindd</command> is not used Samba (<command>smbd</command>)
				uses the underlying UNIX/Linux mechanisms to resolve the identity of incoming
				network traffic. This will be done using the LoginID (account name) in the
				session setup request and passing it to the getpwnam() system function call.
				This call is implemented using the name service switch (NSS) mechanism on
				modern UNIX/Linux systems. By saying <quote>users and groups are local</quote>
				we are implying that they are stored only on the local system, in the
				<filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and <filename>/etc/group</filename> respectively.
				</para>

				<para>
				For example, if an incoming SessionSetupAndX request is owned by the user
				<constant>BERYLIUM\WambatW</constant>, a system call will be made to look up
				the user <constant>WambatW</constant> in the <filename>/etc/passwd</filename>
				file.
				</para>

				<para>
				This configuration may be used with stand-alone Samba servers, Domain Member
				servers (NT4 or ADS), and may be used for a PDC that uses either an smbpasswd
				or a tdbsam based Samba passdb backend.

		<varlistentry><term>Winbind is not used, users and groups resolved via NSS: &smbmdash; </term>
			<listitem>
				<para>
				In this situation user and group accounts are treated as if they are local
				accounts, the only way in which this differs from having local accounts is
				that the accounts are stored in a repository that can be shared. In practice
				this means that they will reside in either a NIS type database or else in LDAP.
				</para>

				<para>
				This configuration may be used with stand-alone Samba servers, Domain Member
				servers (NT4 or ADS), and may be used for a PDC that uses either an smbpasswd
				or a tdbsam based Samba passdb backend.

			</listitem>
		</varlistentry>

		<varlistentry><term>Winbind/NSS with the default local IDMAP table: &smbmdash; </term>
			<listitem>
				<para>
				There are many sites that require only a simple Samba server, or a single Samba
				server that is a member of a Windows NT4 Domain or an ADS Domain. A typical example
				is an appliance like file server on which no local accounts are configured and
				winbind is used to obtain account credentials from the domain controllers for the
				domain. The domain control can be provided by Samba-3, MS Windows NT4 or MS Windows
				Active Directory.
				</para>

				<para>
				Winbind is a great convenience in this situation. All that is needed is a range of
				UID numbers and GID numbers that can be defined in the &smb.conf; file, the
				<filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> file is configured to use <command>winbind</command>
				which does all the difficult work of mapping incoming SIDs to appropriate UIDs and GIDs.
				The SIDs are allocated a UID/GID in the order in which winbind receives them.
				</para>

				<para>
				This configuration is not convenient or practical in sites that have more than one
				Samba server and that require the same UID or GID for the same user or group across
				all servers. One of the hazards of this method is that in the event that the winbind
				IDMAP file may become corrupted or lost, the repaired or rebuilt IDMAP file may allocate
				UIDs and GIDs to differing users and groups from what was there previously with the
				result that MS Windows files that are stored on the Samba server may now not belong to
				to rightful owner.

				The IDMAP_RID facility is new to Samba version 3.0.8. It was added to make life easier
				for a number of sites that are committed to use of MS ADS, who do not want to apply
				an ADS schema extension, and who do not wish to install an LDAP directory server just for
				the purpose of maintaining an IDMAP table. If you have a single ADS domain (not a forest of
				domains, and not multiple domain trees) and you want a simple cookie-cutter solution to the
				IDMAP table problem, then IDMAP_RID is an obvious choice.

				This facility requires the allocation of the <parameter>idmap uid</parameter> and the

				it is possible to allocate a sub-set of this range for automatic mapping of the relative
				identifier (RID) portion of the SID directly to the base of the UID plus the RID value.
				For example, if the <parameter>idmap uid</parameter> range is <constant>1000-100000000</constant>
				and the <parameter>idmap backend = idmap_rid:DOMAIN_NAME=1000-50000000</parameter>, and
				a SID is encountered that has the value <constant>S-1-5-21-34567898-12529001-32973135-1234</constant>,
				the resulting UID will be <constant>1000 + 1234 = 2234</constant>.

			<listitem>
				<para>
				When Samba is being used as the PDC and BDC the of an LDAP passdb backend is a smart
				solution, certainly for the domain controllers, but also for Domain Member servers.
				It is a neat method for assuring that UIDs, GIDs and the matching SIDs will be consistent

				</para>

				<para>
				<indexterm><primary>LDAP</primary></indexterm>
				<indexterm><primary>PADL</primary></indexterm>
				The use of the LDAP based passdb backend requires use of the PADL nss_ldap utility, or
				an equivalent. In this situation winbind is used to handle foreign SIDs; ie: SIDs from
				stand-alone Windows clients (i.e.: not a member of our domain) as well as SIDs from 
				another domain. The foreign UID/GID is mapped from allocated ranges (idmap uid and idmap gid)
				in precisely the same manner as when using winbind with a local IDMAP table.

				<indexterm><primary>MMC</primary></indexterm>
				The nss_ldap tool set can be used to access UIDs and GIDs via LDAP as well as via Active
				Directory. In order to use Active Directory it is necessary to modify the ADS schema by
				installing either the AD4UNIX schema extension or else use the Microsoft Services for UNIX
				version 3.5 of later to extend the ADS schema so it maintains UNIX account credentials.
				Where the ADS schema is extended a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in in also
				installed to permit the UNIX credentials to be set and managed from the ADS User and Computer
				management tool. Each account must be separately UNIX enabled before the UID and GID data can
				be used by Samba.

	<indexterm><primary>RID</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>algorithmic mapping</primary></indexterm>
	Microsoft Windows domain security systems generate the user and group security identifier (SID) as part
	of the process of creation of an account. Windows does not have a concept of the UNIX UID or a GID, rather
	it has its own type of security descriptor. When Samba is used as a Domain Controller, it provides a method
	of producing a unique SID for each user and group. Samba generates a machine and a domain SID to which it
	adds a relative identifier (RID) that is calculated algorithmically from a base value that can be specified
	in the &smb.conf; file, plus twice (2X) the UID or GID. This method is called <quote>algorithmic mapping</quote>.
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>RID base</primary></indexterm>
	For example, a user has a UID of 4321, and the algorithmic RID base has a value of 1000, the RID will
	be <constant>1000 + (2 x 4321) = 9642</constant>. Thus, if the domain SID is
	<constant>S-1-5-21-89238497-92787123-12341112</constant>, the resulting SID is
	<constant>S-1-5-21-89238497-92787123-12341112-9642</constant>.
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>on-the-fly</primary></indexterm>
	The foregoing type SID is produced by Samba as an automatic function and is either produced on-the-fly
	(as in the case when using a <parameter>passdb backend = [tdbsam | smbpasswd]</parameter>, or may be stored
	as a permanent part of an account in an LDAP based ldapsam.
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>SFU 3.5</primary></indexterm>
	MS Active Directory Server (ADS) uses a directory schema that can be extended to accommodate additional
	account attributes such as UIDs and GIDs. The installation of Microsoft Service for UNIX 3.5 will expand
	the normal ADS schema to include UNIX account attributes. These must of course be managed separately
	through a snap-in module to the normal ADS account management MMC interface.
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>PDC</primary></indexterm>
	Security identifiers used within a domain must be managed to avoid conflict and to preserve itegrity.
	In an NT4 domain context that PDC manages the distribution of all security credentials to the backup
	domain controllers. At this time the only passdb backend for a Samba domain controller that is suitable
	for such information is an LDAP backend.
	</para>

	</sect2>

	<sect2>
	<title>Backup Domain Controller</title>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>BDC</primary></indexterm>
	Backup Domain Controllers (BDCs) have read-only access to security credentials that are stored in LDAP.
	Changes in user or group account information are passed by the BDC to the PDC. Only the PDC can write
	changes to the directory.
	</para>

	<para>
	IDMAP information can however be written directly to the LDAP server so long as all domain controllers
	have access to the master (writable) LDAP server. Samba-3 at this time does not handle LDAP redirects
	in the IDMAP backend. This means that it is is unsafe to use a slave (replicate) LDAP server with
	the IDMAP facility.

	The <command>idmap_rid</command> facility is a new tool that, unlike native winbind, creates a
	predictable mapping of MS Windows SIDs to UNIX UIDs and GIDs. The key benefit of this method
	of implementing the Samba IDMAP facility is that it eliminates the need to store the IDMAP data
	in a central place. The down-side is that it can be used only within a single ADS Domain and
	is not compatible with trusted domain implementations.

	<indexterm><primary>allow trusted domains</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>idmap uid</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>idmap gid</primary></indexterm>
	This alternate method of SID to UID/GID  mapping can be achieved uses the idmap_rid
        plug-in. This plug-in uses the RID of the user SID to derive the UID and GID by adding the
        RID to a base value specified. This utility requires that the parameter
        <quote>allow trusted domains = No</quote> must be specified, as it is not compatible
        with multiple domain environments. The <parameter>idmap uid</parameter> and 
	<parameter>idmap gid</parameter> ranges must be specified.

	The idmap_rid facility can be used both for NT4/Samba style domains as well as with Active Directory.
	To use this with an NT4 Domain the <parameter>realm</parameter> is not used, additionally the
	method used to join the domain uses the <constant>net rpc join</constant> process.

	group resolution is unavailable for nearly 12 minutes following first start-up of 
	<command>winbind</command>. Disabling of such enumeration resulted in instantaneous response.
	The disabling of user and group enumeration means that it will not be possible to list users
	or groups using the <command>getent passwd</command> and <command>getent group</command>
	commands. It will be possible to perform the lookup for individual users, as shown in the procedure
	below.

	<title>IDMAP Storage in LDAP using Winbind</title>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>ADAM</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>ADS</primary></indexterm>
	The storage of IDMAP information in LDAP can be used with both NT4/Samba-3 style domains as well as
	with ADS domains. OpenLDAP is a commonly used LDAP server for this purpose, although any standards
	complying LDAP server can be used. It is therefore possible to deploy this IDMAP configuration using
	the Sun iPlanet LDAP server, Novell eDirectory, Microsoft ADS plus ADAM, and so on.
	</para>

	<para>
	The following example is for an ADS style domain:
	</para>

	<para>
<screen>
# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = SNOWSHOW
        netbios name = GOODELF
        realm = SNOWSHOW.COM
        server string = Samba Server
        security = ADS
        log level = 1 ads:10 auth:10 sam:10 rpc:10
        ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=SNOWSHOW,dc=COM
        ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap
        ldap suffix = dc=SNOWSHOW,dc=COM
        idmap backend = ldap:ldap://ldap.snowshow.com
        idmap uid = 150000-550000
        idmap gid = 150000-550000
        template shell = /bin/bash
        winbind use default domain = Yes
</screen>
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>realm</primary></indexterm>
	In the case of an NT4 or Samba-3 style Domain the <parameter>realm</parameter> is not used and the
	command used to join the domain is: <command>net rpc join</command>. The above example also demonstrates
	advanced error reporting techniques that are documented in <link linkend="dbglvl">the chapter called
	Reporting Bugs</link>.
	</para>

	<indexterm><primary>MIT kerberos</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>Heimdal kerberos</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>/etc/krb5.conf</primary></indexterm>
	Where MIT kerberos is installed (version 1.3.4 or later) edit the <filename>/etc/krb5.conf</filename> 
	file so it has the following contents:
<screen>
[logging]
 default = FILE:/var/log/krb5libs.log
 kdc = FILE:/var/log/krb5kdc.log
 admin_server = FILE:/var/log/kadmind.log

[libdefaults]

 }
</screen>
	</para>

	<para>
	Where Heimdal kerberos is installed edit the <filename>/etc/krb5.conf</filename>
        file so it is either empty (i.e.: no contents) or it has the following contents:
<screen>
[libdefaults]
        default_realm = SNOWSHOW.COM
        clockskew = 300

[realms]
        SNOWSHOW.COM = {
                kdc = ADSDC.SHOWSHOW.COM
        }
        
[domain_realm]
        .snowshow.com = SNOWSHOW.COM
</screen>
	</para>

	<note><para>
	Samba can not use the Heimdal libraries if there is no <filename>/etc/krb5.conf</filename> file.
	So long as there is an empty file the Heimdal kerberos libraries will be usable. There is no
	need to specify any settings as Samba using the Heimdal libraries can figure this out automatically.
	</para></note>

	Edit the NSS control file <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> so it has the following entries:

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>nss_ldap</primary></indexterm>
	The DMS must be joined to the domain using the usual procedure. Additionally, it is necessary
	to build and install the PADL nss_ldap tool set. Be sure to build this tool set with the
	following:
<screen>
./configure --enable-rfc2307bis --enable-schema-mapping
make install
</screen> 
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>/etc/nsswitch.conf</primary></indexterm>

<screen>
...
passwd: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
group:  files ldap
...
hosts:  files wins
...
</screen>
	</para>

	<para>
	<indexterm><primary>/etc/ldap.conf</primary></indexterm>
	<indexterm><primary>nss_ldap</primary></indexterm>
	The <filename>/etc/ldap.conf</filename> file must be configured also. Refer to the PADL documentation
	and source code for nss_ldap to specific instructions.
