ACtive Directory & Solaris integration

807559May 24 2006 — edited May 24 2006
Hello folks!!!

We have a Active directory & Linux/Solaris setup integrated.
Scenario -

1. AD Server [ OS- Windows 2000 Advanced server ]
2. CLients - Redhat Linux 9/Ad.server 2.1/Ad.server 3.0
3. Solaris 8 & Solaris 9
4. HP-UX 11.11i

Windows services for unix [SFU] has been installed on AD Server.All unix servers has been configured as LDAP client for AD.AD users logs into the these client using their domain id.


Problem facing -

If any user changes password from AD Windows client machine,he is unable to login to Solaris 8.Whereas after changing password login to Linux/Solaris 9 & HP-UX clients
it works without any error.

This login problem occurs only with SOLARIS 8 .
We are using SUNWlldap on solaris.

Observation - [On solairs 8 client]
1.I am able to get users list after changing password for any user .
2. I am able to su - username.

Action taken -
1.Rebooted system.
2.Checked for AD replciation from AD Site & services.
3.Restarted nscd service.
4.Tried by installing patch 108993-48 but it stopped login for all users.
Were unable to get userslist.
#getent passwd

Removed patch...users login started ok on it.


Workaround provided -
If user changes password from AD domain controller,he can login to Solaris 8 client.
But this is not a good solution.We can not provide access to domain controller for all users.

We need to solve this on priority.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Anup
