01. Log into the Debian device and run the following commands in terminal:
sudo apt update
# set the fully qualified host name
sudo hostnamectl set-hostname nettools.i12bretro.local
# confirm or add domain controller to DNS entries
sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf
sudo systemctl disable systemd-resolved
sudo systemctl stop systemd-resolved
sudo apt-get upgrade
# install required packages
sudo apt -y install realmd libnss-sss libpam-sss sssd sssd-tools adcli samba-common-bin oddjob oddjob-mkhomedir packagekit
sudo realm discover i12bretro.local
02. Paste the following text into /etc/krb5.conf
[libdefaults]
dns_lookup_realm = false
ticket_lifetime = 24h
renew_lifetime = 7d
forwardable = true
rdns = false
default_realm = I12BRETRO.LOCAL
default_ccache_name = KEYRING:persistent:%{uid}
03. Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes to /etc/krb5.conf
04. Continue with the following commands in terminal:
sudo realm join -U i12bretro i12bretro.local
# check the configured value of the domain
sudo realm list
05. Paste the following lines into terminal together to enable automatically creating user home directories:
sudo bash -c "cat ≫ /usr/share/pam-configs/mkhomedir" ≪≪EOF Name: activate mkhomedir
Default: yes
Priority: 900
Session-Type: Additional
Session:
required pam_mkhomedir.so umask=0022 skel=/etc/skel
EOF
06. Continue with the following commands in terminal:
sudo pam-auth-update
07. Arrow down to activate mkhomedir ≫ Press spacebar to select ≫ Press Enter to confirm
08. Run one or more of the following commands in terminal to grant active directory users or groups access to log into the linux machine:
# add specific user(s )
realm permit user1@i12bretro.local user2@i12bretro.local
# add specific group(s)
sudo realm permit -g 'LinuxUsers' 'Linux Admins'
# add everyone
sudo realm permit --all
# deny everyone
sudo realm deny --all
09. Similarly, run the following command to edit /etc/sudoers.d/domain_admins to add specific users or groups to the sudoers file:
sudo nano /etc/sudoers.d/domain_admins
# add specific user(s )
user1@i12bretro.local ALL=(ALL) ALL
user2@i12bretro.local ALL=(ALL) ALL
# add specific group(s)
%LinuxUsers@i12bretro.local ALL=(ALL) ALL
%Linux\ Admins@i12bretro.local ALL=(ALL) ALL
10. Press CTRL+O, Enter, CTRL+X to write the changes to /etc/sudoers.d/domain_admins
