Module Description

This module manages Samba installation, including samba as an Active Directory Domain Controler.

Any parameter in smb.conf can be added/modified/removed, keeping you free to customize the installation to your specific needs.

This module is licensed MIT.

The script additional-samba-tool is licensed GPLv3 (depends on python-samba which is GPLv3).

Setup

What samba affects

This module will install the samba packages and setup smb.conf.

In 'classic':

  • By default, it will enable winbind in nsswitch (through augeas, not modifying anything more than necessary).
  • By default, it will join the Domain Controller.
  • It will configure and enable the winbind service
  • It will deploy 'smb-create-home.sh', a small helper script to create user's home automatically

In 'dc':

  • It will deploy additional-samba-tool, a python script completing samba-tool This script handles users/groups and their attributes (list, add or remove attributes)

Setup Requirements

This module requires puppetlabs-stdlib module.

Usage

Examples

Look at the examples directory.

Samba 4 AD Domain Controller

Domain Controller

To provision the domain controller use the samba::dc class:

class { ::samba::dc:
  # Mandatory parameters
  domain                => 'ad',              # * AD domain name
  realm                 => 'ad.example.org',  # * Realm name (must match domain)

  # Optionnal parameters
  dnsbackend            => 'internal',        # * DNS backend ('internal',
                                              #   'bindFlat' or 'bindDLZ')
                                              #   default: internal
  adminpassword         => 'P455WordS',       # * Administrator password
                                              #   (default: undef)
  dnsforwarder          => '8.8.8.8',         # * Dns forwarder IP (default: undef)
  ip                    => '192.168.1.1'      # * DC listening IP (default undef)
  targetdir             => '/var/lib/samba/', # * Deployment directory
                                              #   (default: '/var/lib/samba/')
  domainlevel           => '2003',            # * Functionality level ('2003',
                                              #   '2008' or '2008 R2') (default 2003).
                                              #   Can be upgraded, but not downgraded
  domainprovargs        => '',                # * Additionnal arguments for domain
                                              #   provision (ex: --domain-sid)
  sambaloglevel         => 3,                 # * Log level (from 1 to 10) (default: 1)
  logtosyslog           => false,             # * Log not to file but to syslog
                                              #   (default: false)
  sambaclassloglevel    => {                  # * Set log level by log classes
    'printdrivers' => 1,                      #   (default: undef)
    'idmap'        => 5,
    'winbind'      => 3,
  },
  globaloptions         => {                  # * Custom options in section [global]
                                              #   Takes precedence.
                                              #   (default: {})
    'custom setting 1'   => 'custom value 1',
    'custom setting 2'   => 'custom value 2',
  },
  netlogonoptions       => {},                # * Custom options in section [netlogon]
  sysvoloptions         => {},                # * Custom options in section [sysvol]
  globalabsentoptions   => ['idmap_ldb:use'], # * Remove default settings put
                                              #   by this class in [global]
                                              #   (default: [])
  sysvolabsentoptions   => [],                # * remove default settings in [sysvol]
  netlogonabsentoptions => [],                # * Remove default settings in [netlogon]
}

Password Policy

Configuring password Policy:

class { ::samba::dc::ppolicy:
  ppolicycomplexity     => 'on',              # * Enable password policy (default: on)
  ppolicyplaintext      => 'off',             # * Store password in plain text
                                              #   (default: off)
  ppolicyhistorylength  => 24,                # * Password history length (default: 24)
  ppolicyminpwdlength   => 7,                 # * Minimum password length (default: 7)
  ppolicyminpwdage      => 1,                 # * Minimum password age (default: 1)
  ppolicymaxpwdage      => 42,                # * Maximum password age (default: 42)
}

If this class is not specified, default from samba-tool provisioning will be kept.

Password Policy parameters can be set individually:

samba::dc::ppolicy_param{'account-lockout-duration':
  option      => '--account-lockout-duration',         # option name in samba-tool
  show_string => 'Account lockout duration (mins):',   # string name in show
  value       => '45',                                 # value
}

Use the following commands to list available options for your samba version

# List available options:
$ samba-tool domain passwordsettings --help

# List available string_show:
$ samba-tool domain passwordsettings show

Logon Scripts

Adding logon scripts:

::samba::dc::script { 'login1.cmd':           # * name of the script
  content => 'echo login script 1             # * content of the script
ping -n 11 127.0.0.1 > nul                    #   will automaticaly be converted
',                                            #   to CRLF End of Line.
}

Adding users:

smb_user { 'test user':                       # * user name
  ensure         => present,                  # * absent | present

Idmap

Idmap is to map user ids to unix uid/uid numbers, it supports several back-ends which can be configured with the following resources.

Note that configuring a '*' domain seems necessary for Idmap to properly work.

Idmap nss, tdb or rid

::samba::idmap { 'Domain *':
  domain      => '*',           # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin  => 10000,         # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax  => 19999,         # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend     => 'tdb',         # * idmap backend
                                #   in [nss, tdb or rid]
}

Idmap ad

::samba::idmap { 'Domain DC':
  domain      => 'DC',          # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin  => 10000,         # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax  => 19999,         # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend     => 'ad',          # * idmap backend
  schema_mode => 'rfc2307',     # * Schema mode
                                #   in [rfc2307, sfu, sfu20]
}

Idmap autorid

::samba::idmap { 'Domain DC':
  domain         => 'DC',          # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin     => 10000,         # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax     => 19999,         # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend        => 'autorid',     # * idmap backend
  # Optionnal parameters
  rangesize      => 100000,        # * number of uid per domain
                                   #   default: 100000
  read_only      => 'yes',         # * Read only mappint
                                   #   Default no
  ignore_builtin => 'yes',         # * Ignore any mapping requests
                                   #   for the BUILTIN domain
}

Idmap hash

::samba::idmap { 'Domain DC':
  domain     => 'DC',                     # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin => 10000,                    # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax => 19999,                    # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend    => 'hash',                   # * idmap backend
  name_map   => '/etc/samba/name_map.cfg' # * mapping file
}

Idmap ldap

::samba::idmap { 'Domain DC':
  domain       => 'DC',                         # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin   => 10000,                        # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax   => 19999,                        # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend      => 'ldap',                       # * idmap backend
  ldap_base_dn => 'ou=users,dc=example,dc=com', # * users mapping ou
  ldap_user_dn => 'cn=smb,dc=example,dc=com',   # * bind account
  ldap_passwd  => 'password',                   # * bind password
  ldap_url     => 'ldap://ldap.example.com',    # * ldap url
}

Idmap tdb2

::samba::idmap { 'Domain DC':
  domain     => 'DC',                     # * name of the Domain or '*'
  idrangemin => 10000,                    # * Min uid for Domain users
  idrangemax => 19999,                    # * Max uid for Domain users
  backend    => 'tdb2',                   # * idmap backend
  script     => '/etc/samba/map.sh',      # * mapping sid/uid script
}

Multiple Realms

To add multiple realms in krb5.conf, use the following syntax:

class { '::samba::classic':
  default_realm => 'FOREST.EXAMPLE.COM'
  additional_realms => [
    'FOREST2.EXAMPLE.ORG'
  ]
}

Samba Shares

Shares

::samba::share { 'Test Share':
  # Mandatory parameters
  path            => '/srv/test/',
  
  # Optionnal parameters
  manage_directory  => true,        # * let the resource handle the shared 
                                    #   directory creation (default: true)
  owner             => 'root',      # * owner of the share directory
                                    #   (default: root)
  group             => 'root',      # * group of the share directory 
                                    #   (default: root)
  mode              => '0775',      # * mode of the share directory
                                    #   (default: 0777)
  acl               => [],          # * list of posix acls (default: undef)
  options           => {            # * Custom options in section [Test Share]
      'browsable'       => 'Yes',
      'root preexec'    => 'mkdir -p \'/home/home_%U\'',
  },
  absentoptions     => ['path'],    # * Remove default settings put by this resource
                                    #   default?: []
}

Directories

If you want to create subdirectory in a share with specific permissions/acls:

::samba::dir { 'Sub Dir':
  # Mandatory parameters
  path              => '/srv/test/sub',

  # Optionnal parameters
  owner             => 'root',      # * owner of the directory
                                    #   (default: root)
  group             => 'root',      # * group of the directory 
                                    #   (default: root)
  mode              => '0775',      # * mode of the directory
                                    #   (default: 770)
  acl               => [],          # * list of posix acls (default: undef)
}

DNS Zones

If you want to create a DNS zone (most useful for creating the reverse zone after DC creation):

::samba::dc::dnszone { 'Reverse Zone':
  # Mandatory parameters
  zone              => '0.168.192.in-addr.arpa'
}

DNS Entries

If you want to create a DNS entry (most useful for creating the reverse DNS entries):

::samba::dc::dnsentry { 'Reverse Entry':
  # Mandatory parameters
  zone              => '0.168.192.in-addr.arpa'
  host              => '1'
  type              => 'PTR'
  record            => 'dc.samdom.example.com.'
}

Limitations

class samba::dc (deploy Samba as a Domain Controller) needs Samba in version 4.0.0 or above.

This version is available in Debian Jessie and above, or in Wheezy using Debian backports.

As of May 2017, CentOS/RedHat doesn't support Samba 4 AD DC due to choices in kerberos implementations.

If you plan to deploy Samba as a DC on CentOS/RedHat you will need to build samba yourself. Another possibility is to use the Samba+ Sernet Packages which requires a paid subscription.

Formerly, this Puppet module handled installing Samba from the free packages Sernet packages, these packages are EOL and are no longer available. For security reasons please be advised to migrate to a properly maintained solution (samba+ subscription, Debian/Ubuntu, self-maintained samba package).
