Windows Client domain logon, against backup samba ad domain controller, is not working

Hello,

here a short summary:

  • Version of all mentioned UCS-Server here ist UCS 4.4 errata 175
  • one AD DC on Samba4 (primary)
  • one AD DC Samba4 as backup domain controller (backup)
  • one ucs fileserver for windows profiles
  • Windows OS: Windows10 (client)

All is working fine. But when i shutdown the primary domain Controller. You cannot login at the domain with a user, that was not still logged in before. And when I am right samba 4 ad is a multimaster system and must work without promote the backup controller

Samba domain replication is working without failures.
with ldapsearch command on the backup domain controller (primary domain controller is down) i could successfull search after users in ldap and samba.
DNS is also working fine from windows10 client.
I also run the script:
/usr/share/univention-samba4/scripts/check_essential_samba4_dns_records.sh
all ist okay for every section I see two entrys.

At the windows 10 login. You can successful auth you see the name of the user.
But the login waits at the point “wait for user profile service”

If the primary ucs up again, you can login.

Has anyone an idea?

best regards
tko

Have you taken a look at the “system diagnostics” modules on both servers? Sounds like your Samba replication is broken.

You can also run those checks from the command line with univention-run-diagnostic-checks -t all

Thanks for help. Here is alle okay:

You should really run that on both servers.

okay, the output above, is from the backup domain controller:
the primary is successfull, but there is a reject at the s4 connector. This reject belongs to the backup domain controller.

that is something strange. The reject is as follows

valueError: Kopano users must have a primary e-mail address specified.

I have a ucs system with installed kopanotest system. But the uid dns-pdc2. where can i find this uid and can set an primary mail adress ?

The failure with the reject is now solved. But the users are still unable to login to the domain.
Nothing has changed. when i solved the reject.

Okay i have solved this issue.
if someone is interested in it, there was only one mistake.
The fileserver as i mentioned in my opening, has no second nameserver entry.
After i set the ip of the nameserver or backup domain controller on the fileserver as second nameserver, all is now working fine.
Little mistake, big problem.

Thanks all for your help
