Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 111686
[RFE] Add simple domain joining on install
Last modified: 2014-08-31 19:25:37 EDT
When setting up a new machine, it should be more straightforward to have the machine join a Windows domain when installing. The ability to join the NT/AD domain when installing Fedora (and other redhat lines) should be part of the install process. Integration with an existing Windows domain via Samba that can easily occur during install would help the experience of setting up Redhat machines within an existing Windows network. Once the install is complete, users should be able to log in using their Windows login (if an account has been created for them on the local system) and mount file shares using their Windows credentials immediately without additional Samba setup.
Fedora Core 1 is maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thanks! NOTE: Fedora Core 1 is reaching the final end of support even by the Legacy project. After Fedora Core 6 Test 2 is released (currently scheduled for July 26th), there will be no more security updates for FC1. Please use these next two weeks to upgrade any remaining FC1 systems to a current release.
Note that FC1 and FC2 are no longer supported even by Fedora Legacy. Many changes have occurred since these older releases. Please install a supported version of Fedora Core and retest. If this still occurs on FC3 or FC4, please assign to that version and Fedora Legacy. If it still occurs on FC5 or FC6, please reopen and assign to the correct version. Thanks!
