Title
Authentication Services 4.1 is failing when specifying a Domain Controller -
Description
A join command that specifies the domain controller during the join is failing. The join command may look like this.
# /opt/quest/bin/vastool -u admin join domain.com dc.domain.com
The error would then state something like the below and the name has been verified.
ERROR: Server "dc.domain.com" does not match one of the provided names.
Please re-run with the server's full-qualified name (or let QAS choose). -
Cause
There is a defect in 4.1.0-21140 and below that fails to check the case of the domain controller name. Therefore if the name is actually returned as DC.DOMAIN.COM and the command uses dc.domain.com the join will fail. -
Resolution
WORKAROUND:
Ensure that the join command matches the case of the domain controller exactly. This includes mixed case names as well.
For a domain controller called Example1 the command should resemble this;
# /opt/quest/bin/vastool -u admin join domain.com Example1.domain.com
STATUS:
This has been logged as Defect # 380841 and will be resolved in the next Maintenance release that will be a revision higher than 4.1.0-21140
