I’m running sssd version 1.11 with the AD backend in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (1.11.5-1ubuntu3) to authenticate users from Active Directory running on Windows Server 2012 R2, and I’m trying to achieve logins with the User Principal Name for all users of the domain. But the UPN are always
Enterprise Principal Names.
Let-me illustrate the problem with my user account:
Domain: local.example.com
sAMAccountName: ferrao
UPN:
[email protected] (there’s no local in the UPN)
I can successfully login with the sAMAccountName atribute, which is fine, but I can’t login with
[email protected] which is my UPN. The optimum solution for me is to allow logins from sAMAccountName and the UPN (User Principal Name). If’s not possible, the UPN should be the right way instead of the sAMAccountName.
Another annoyance is the homedir pattern with those options in sssd.conf:
default_shell = /bin/bash
fallback_homedir = /home/%d/%u
What I would like to achieve is separated home directories from the EPN. For example:
/home/example.com/user
/home/whatever.example.com/user
But with this pattern I can’t map the way I would like to do. I’ve looked through
man pages and was unable to find any answers for this issues.
Thanks,
