[Freeipa-users] EXTERNAL: Re: Active Directory --> IPA Password Sync

[Joseph, Matthew (EXP)]

Thank you very much for that. Works like a charm.

How does this work though? You setup the winsync agreement between your IPA Server and AD server using the hostname.
How does IPA know that it can trust a second DC?

Hello,

I imagine this is a common issue/question when trying to implement the password sync between AD and IPA.

We have two Windows 2003 domain controllers (for redundancy) so when a user issues a password change on the Windows side there is no primary domain controller that it will always use for password changes.
So right now IPA is only getting 50% of the Password changes that are done through Windows due to password changes going through both domain controllers.
Looking through the documentation IPA will only allow a password sync agreement between 1 AD and 1 IPA server.

Is there a solution for this issue? How are people getting around this?

One winsync agreement but passsync should be installed on both DCs.


Thanks,

Matt
