With this fix to cut down the netbios name of the host, how can I confirm the name has been shortened?

I installed ipa-server-3.3.3-8.el7.x86_64 but, I still do not see user name lookup work:

[root@long-host-name12345678 sssd]# getent passwd 'AD2\Administrator'
[root@long-host-name12345678 sssd]#

And when I check the logs:

[root@long-host-name12345678 sssd]# grep -i GSSAPI * | grep -i KDC
sssd_testrelm.com.log:(Mon Jan  6 20:49:21 2014) [sssd[be[testrelm.com]]] [sasl_bind_send] (0x0080): Extended failure message: [SASL(-1): generic failure: GSSAPI Error: Unspecified GSS failure.  Minor code may provide more information (KDC policy rejects request)]

So, how can I confirm that the netbios name was truncated as expected?

Alexander or Tomas, please advise.

Scott, I think the easiest way is to capture the network packets and look at the CLDAP response with wireshark.

Yes, I think using network capture is best here.

Ok, I did a tcpdump capture during getent and ssh to see if I could get that.  I will attach that but, I don't see the hostname truncated anywhere in that capture.

I do see this though (from the ssh I think):

Is the above just confirmation of the problem?

I'll look at it.

I already have a fix for this which was successfully tested by Scott.

Version ::

ipa-server-3.3.3-12.el7.x86_64

Test Results ::

Manually ran the following to setup env:

echo "192.168.122.77 long-host-name12345678.ipa4.example.test long-host-name12345678" >> /etc/hosts
echo "long-host-name12345678.ipa4.example.test" > /etc/hostname

service firewall stop
iptables -F

yum -y update

ipa-server-install --setup-dns --forwarder=192.168.122.1 --hostname=$(hostname) \
    -r IPA4.EXAMPLE.TEST -n ipa4.example.test -p Secret123 -P Secret123 -a Secret123 -U

    --forward-policy=only --ip-address=192.168.122.21

ipa trust-add ad2.example.test --admin Administrator --range-type=ipa-ad-trust --password

Then manually ran automated test:

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
:: [   LOG    ] :: ipa_trust_func_bug_1030517:  RHEL7 ipa-adtrust-install should fail if netbios hostname longer than 15 characters

:: [   PASS   ] :: BZ1030517 not found

Sumit found out we do not set NetBIOS name to samba configuration. If IPA server would have a hostname longer than 15 characters, it would lead to invalid NetBIOS hostname:

https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4116

Moving back to ASSIGNED.

Wasn't that what ipa-3.3.3-12.el7 fixed?  Or something else missed?

Previous patches fixed the CLDAP responder. However, Sumit found that the actual IPA server Samba part may still have the NetBIOS name wrong so we decide to rather force the proper name to it's configuration. We decided to attach the fix to this Bugzilla.

Sumit will know better what would the wrong samba NetBIOS hostname cause, if you want to know more.

Scott, I think messages related to a too small buffer you were seeing in the network traces were caused by samba using a too long NetBIOS hostname.

Fixed upstream:
master: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/changeset/531ede2904608a2bfe24d09c94dc0b87d780f30a
ipa-3-3: https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/changeset/4679a3b8d3c093ea2ba3b32cafca9b42d47fce15

To verify the change manually, run:

# net conf list | grep "netbios name"

Note that the change does not apply on upgrade, but only after new installation (or ipa-adtrust-install) run.

Ok, I'll re-verify with this info too once it's ON_QA.

Thanks for the info.

Should the netbios name here be stripping hyphens?

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# net conf list | grep "netbios name"
	netbios name = LONGHOSTNAME123

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# hostname
long-host-name12345678.ipa9.example.test

I thought the cldap entry we saw during some debugging had the hyphens?

Thanks

Good catch, While the CLDAP plugin just cuts the name after 15 characters, ipa-adtrust-install tries to be smarter and checks the name for invalid characters as well. While doing this it is a bit too strict, it only allows upper-case letters and digits while a hyphen and a full-stop are allowed, but not as first or last character.

While there are different ways to solve the disconnect I think the safest would be to let the CLDAP plugin use the same scheme as ipa-adtrust-install to create a valid NetBIOS name. Alexander, do you agree?

I agree. (I had the same comment pending in a separate browser tab for couple hours) ;)

Ok, so, if the CLDAP plugin is changed, is there a way to see the name it's using other than a network trace?

Alexander or Sumit, is the fix required to land in RHEL-7.0? If yes, please reopen https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4116

If not, please file a new enhancement ticket.

Reopened https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/4116 and assigned to me.

You can run ldapsearch to get the binary CLDAP response

# ldapsearch -H cldap://ipa18-devel.ipa18.devel -b '' -s base '(&(DnsDomain=ipa18.devel)(NtVer=\06\00\00\00)(AAC=\00\00\00\00))' netlogon -LLL -t
dn:
netlogon:< file:///tmp/ldapsearch-netlogon-oSP7u0

I didn't found a tool which can decode the binary data properly, but looking at the hexdump will show the name:

]# od -c /tmp/ldapsearch-netlogon-oSP7u0 
0000000 027  \0  \0  \0 375 003  \0  \0   M 351  \r 374   S 003   :   J

The string before 'Default-First-Site-Name' is the NetBIOS name.

HTH

Very cool.  If that binary file is predictable, I think I might be able to do it like this:

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# NBNAME=$(hexdump -C /tmp/ldapsearch-netlogon-xAmsNj |cut -f2 -d'|'|tr -d '\n'|sed  -e 's/\.*Default-First-Site-Name.*$//' -e 's/^.*\.\.//')

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# echo $NBNAME
LONG-HOST-NAME1

That may be enough for my tests as long as I can rely on that delimiter between Netbios Realm(?) and Host names.

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# CLDAP_NAME=$(hexdump -C /tmp/ldapsearch-netlogon-xAmsNj |cut -f2 -d'|'|tr -d '\n'|sed  -e 's/\.*Default-First-Site-Name.*$//' -e 's/^.*\.\.//')

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# NET_CONF_NAME=$(net conf list|grep -i "netbios name"|awk '{print $4}')

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# if [ "$CLDAP_NAME" = "$NET_CONF_NAME" ]; then echo same; else echo different; fi
different

[root@long-host-name12345678 ~]# echo "$CLDAP_NAME : $NET_CONF_NAME"
LONG-HOST-NAME1 : LONGHOSTNAME123

So I should be able to get something usable for a test.  Just need to get the new fix.
