The Winbind domain join solution, a Kerberos-based authentication solution, is another method of authenticating with Active Directory.
Use the following high-level steps to set up the Winbind domain join solution.
Procedure
-
Install the
winbind,samba, and Kerberos packages on the Linux virtual machine. -
Join the Linux desktop to Microsoft Active Directory (AD).
What to do next
If you use the Winbind Domain Join solution or another Kerberos authentication-based solution, join the template virtual machine to AD, and rejoin the cloned virtual machine to AD. For example, use the following command:
sudo /usr/bin/net ads join -U *<domain\_user\>%<domain\_password\>*
To run the domain rejoin command on a cloned virtual machine for the Winbind solution, include the command to a shell script and set the script path to the RunOnceScript option in the viewagent-custom.conf file. For more information, see Edit Configuration Files on a Linux Desktop.
