Overview

Some of the attribute types and object classes in Active Directory schema are incompatible with the standard LDAP schema. When Samba is running by itself on DS it only includes the core standard LDAP schema so there is no issue. However, when integrated with IPA this becomes a problem because IPA uses the full standard LDAP schema so there are some conflicts.

This problem can be solved by renaming the conflicting AD schema. Samba already has a mechanism to translates object classes and attribute types. It needs to be expanded to include all conflicting schema.

For example, the standard the person object class requires cn and sn. However, in AD schema the object class person only requires cn. With this solution the AD person will be renamed to samba4Person when stored in DS.

For other AD attribute types and object classes that have identical/compatible definitions in the standard LDAP schema, Samba should just use the standard LDAP schema.

Conflicting Attribute Types

The following AD attributes are incompatible with DS attributes. The solution is to rename the attributes and/or change the OID's.

AD Attribute	DS Attribute	Solution
fRSDirectoryFilter OID: 1.2.840.113556.1.4.484	calOtherCAPURIs (60rfc2739.ldif) OID: 1.2.840.113556.1.4.484	fRSDirectoryFilter OID: fRSDirectoryFilter-oid

[edit]

Conflicting Object Classes

The following AD object classes are incompatible with DS object classes. The solution is to rename the object class and/or change the OID's.

AD Object Class	DS Object Class	Solution
domain	domain (05rfc4524.ldif)	samba4Domain
rFC822LocalPart OID: 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.14	rFC822localPart (05rfc4524.ldif) OID: 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.14	samba4RFC822LocalPart OID: samba4RFC822LocalPart-oid

Current Code

[edit]

Schema Conversion

Some of the schema conversions are already configured at source4/setup/schema-map-fedora-ds-1.0. The file uses the following format:

# Skip attribute/object class
<attribute/object class>
...
# Rename OID/attribute/object class
<old OID/attribute/object class>:<new OID/attribute/object class>
...

The conversion code is located in source4/dsdb/schema/schema_convert_to_ol.c:

char *dsdb_convert_schema_to_openldap(struct ldb_context *ldb,
    char *target_str, const char *mappings) 
{
}

Current the code doesn't map the object class parent.

[edit]

Mapping Module

The mapping module is located at source4/dsdb/samdb/ldb_modules/simple_ldap_map.c. It maintains a separate mapping configuration:

Local Name	Remote Name	Convert Local	Convert Remote
objectGUID	nsuniqueid	guid_ns_string	encode_ns_guid
objectSid	objectSid	sid_always_binary	val_copy
whenCreated	createTimestamp
whenChanged	modifyTimestamp
objectCategory	objectCategory	objectCategory_always_dn	val_copy
distinguishedName	entryDN
primaryGroupID	primaryGroupID	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy
groupType	groupType	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy
userAccountControl	userAccountControl	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy
sAMAccountType	sAMAccountType	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy
systemFlags	systemFlags	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy
usnChanged	modifyTimestamp	usn_to_timestamp	timestamp_to_usn
usnCreated	createTimestamp	usn_to_timestamp	timestamp_to_usn

The attribute mapping is stored in the following structure:

static const struct ldb_map_attribute nsuniqueid_attributes[] = 
{
    {
        .local_name = "...",
        .type = MAP_CONVERT | MAP_RENAME | MAP_KEEP,
        .u = {
            .convert = {
                .remote_name = "...",
                .convert_local = ...,
                .convert_remote = ...,
            }
        }
    },
    {
        .local_name = NULL
    }
};

Currently there is no object class mapping for DS.

The module is initialized in the following method:

static int nsuniqueid_init(struct ldb_module *module)
{
    ldb_map_init(module, nsuniqueid_attributes, NULL,
        nsuniqueid_wildcard_attributes, "extensibleObject", NULL);

    return ldb_next_init(module);
}

Proposed Changes

[edit]

Adding Samba 3 Schema

Samba 3 schema and its dependencies have to be included during DS instance creation. The following lines should be added into source4/setup/fedorads.inf:

SchemaFile=/etc/dirsrv/schema/10rfc2307.ldif
SchemaFile=/etc/dirsrv/schema/05rfc4523.ldif
SchemaFile=/etc/dirsrv/schema/05rfc4524.ldif
SchemaFile=/etc/dirsrv/schema/06inetorgperson.ldif
SchemaFile=/usr/share/dirsrv/data/60samba3.ldif

[edit]

Schema Conversion

The following schema conversion should be added:

#Standard FDS attributes
homePostalAddress
info
displayName
employeeNumber
employeeType
personalTitle
co
userSMIMECertificate

#Remap into existing schema
unixHomeDirectory
unixHomeDirectory:homeDirectory
pwdLastSet
pwdLastSet:sambaPwdLastSet
lastLogon
lastLogon:sambaLogonTime
lastLogoff
lastLogoff:sambaLogoffTime
badPwdCount
badPwdCount:sambaBadPasswordCount
logonHours
logonHours:sambaLogonHours
homeDrive
homeDrive:sambaHomeDrive
scriptPath
scriptPath:sambaLogonScript
profilePath
profilePath:sambaProfilePath
userWorkstations
userWorkstations:sambaUserWorkstations
homeDirectory
homeDirectory:sambaHomePath
groupType
groupType:sambaGroupType
nextRid
nextRid:sambaNextRid
privilegeDisplayName
privilegeDisplayName:sambaPrivName

#Resolve conflicting attributes

#Resolve conflicting object classes

rFC822LocalPart:samba4RFC822LocalPart
mailRecipient:samba4MailRecipient
nisMap:samba4NisMap

organizationalPerson:samba4OrganizationalPerson
2.5.6.7:samba4OrganizationalPerson-oid

inetOrgPerson:samba4InetOrgPerson
2.16.840.1.113730.3.2.2:samba4InetOrgPerson-oid

The conversion code should be modified map the object class parent:

static char *print_schema_recursive(
    char *append_to_string, struct dsdb_schema *schema, const char *print_class,
    enum dsdb_schema_convert_target target, 
    const char **attrs_skip, const struct attr_map *attr_map, const struct oid_map *oid_map) 
{
    for (j=0; subClassOf && attr_map && attr_map[j].old_attr; j++) {
        if (strcasecmp(subClassOf, attr_map[j].old_attr) == 0) {
            subClassOf =  attr_map[j].new_attr;
            break;
        }
    }
}

[edit]

Mapping Module

The following attribute mapping should be modified:

Local Name	Remote Name	Convert Local	Convert Remote
groupType	sambaGroupType	normalise_to_signed32	val_copy

The following attribute mapping should be added:

Local Name	Remote Name	Convert Local	Convert Remote
unixHomeDirectory	homeDirectory
pwdLastSet	sambaPwdLastSet
lastLogon	sambaLogonTime
lastLogoff	sambaLogoffTime
badPwdCount	sambaBadPasswordCount
logonHours	sambaLogonHours
homeDrive	sambaHomeDrive
scriptPath	sambaLogonScript
profilePath	sambaProfilePath
userWorkstations	sambaUserWorkstations
homeDirectory	sambaHomePath
nextRid	sambaNextRid
privilegeDisplayName	sambaPrivName

The following object class mapping should be added:

Local Name	Remote Name
domain	samba4Domain
rFC822LocalPart	samba4RFC822LocalPart
mailRecipient	samba4MailRecipient
nisMap	samba4NisMap
person	samba4Person
organizationalPerson	samba4OrganizationalPerson
residentialPerson	samba4ResidentialPerson
inetOrgPerson	samba4InetOrgPerson

The object class mapping should stored in the following structure:

const struct ldb_map_objectclass nsuniqueid_objectclasses[] =
{
    {
        .local_name = "...",
        .remote_name = "..."
    },
    {
        .local_name = NULL
    }
};

The module initialization should be changed to use the object class mapping:

static int nsuniqueid_init(struct ldb_module *module)
{
    ldb_map_init(module, nsuniqueid_attributes, nsuniqueid_objectclasses,
        nsuniqueid_wildcard_attributes, "extensibleObject", NULL);

    return ldb_next_init(module);
}
