Using Likewise

Likewise is easier to get to work. But configuring it is not as easy as that.

  1. Installing packages

    apprentice@testbox:~$ apt-get install -y likewise-open

  2. Joining the domain

    apprentice@testbox:~$ sudo domainjoin-cli join mywg.domain.com AdminUser VerySecretPasswd
    Joining to AD Domain:   mywg.domain.com
    With Computer DNS Name: test-box-13-12.mywg.domain.com

    SUCCESS
    You should reboot this system before attempting GUI logins as a domain user.

  3. Test:

    (without rebooting!)

    apprentice@remote:~$ ssh 'mywg\aduser'@192.168.13.35
    Password: 
    MYWG\aduser@test-box-13-12:~$

  4. After reboot

    It still works.
