[Fedora-directory-users] Challenges with Fedora DS

[Premod Dev]

Hi Oserome, 

Why cant you try as follows, 

    • Create multiple masters (multi master replication) 
    • Use a load balancer ( hardware or software ie like linux virtual server) for load balance between these multi master servers. 
    • Give a common fqdn in SAMBA which should resolve to load balancer and rest will do the load balancer. 

Thanks, 
Premod

Subject: [Fedora-directory-users] Challenges with Fedora DS 


Hi, 

I currently use Fedora-DS integrated with Samba as my domain controller in an organization with 141 offices. With only one domain controller I am able to authenticate a user population of 5000 users, however as my organization grows I have challenges daily with authentication. Every morning users trying to logon to my Windows domain keep getting errors while siging on and this frequently leads to account lockouts and frustation of users. 

After going through your documentation on multiple load balanced FDS server installation I still have all traffic coming to one server on the network. My challenge is setting up FDS in the data centre on multiple servers to authenticate my users while accommodating growth. Is there any suggestion you can offer me or documentation where I can go through setup of a centalized FDS cluster for a large user base? 

I will greatly appreciate any help you can proffer. 

Regards
