How to join an ESX to an Active Directory domain

I want to join an ESX host to an AD domain, but I can't understand how to do this in a workflow of vco.

Has anyone who does already?

How should I use the joinDomain_Task()?

Thank you very much.

I know that this answer is quite an old thread, but I still felt, it would be beneficial for the answer I have come to be asked for the same thing... I don't know why I didn't see or respond to this previously

I just put together a package for this example. Please see the document here: http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-21821

  • Printingsharing in an Active Directory domain cannot be used?

    Well, I do support funds for a University that has all their PC on an Active Directory domain and all computers running Windows XP, essentially a user asked me to attach a USB printer to his PC just to share it with others in the Office of the Pc... simple right? So I did and printer sharing worked well, but it works just fine if I turn the firewall the host PC that is attached to the printer off or if I take the PC out of Active Directory. So if I reset the PC host on Active Directory or put the firewall on you cannot share the printer. I checked the exception in the firewall to ensure that port TCP 139 is there and it is, I spoke with the it Department of the University on this topic and do not know what to say. So I come to you guys, if she is Active Directory, which is the cause then I would really the skills of a person on this issue please! Im just a desktop support guys I don't know much on Active Directory.

  • ESX - integration with Active Directory: Kerberos?

    Hi all

    We set up the integration of ads for SSH on ESX 3.5 U3 accounts.

    esxcfg-auth - enablead works very well:

    esxcfg-auth - enablead - addomain = our.domain.com - addc = our.domain.com

    For some reason, there was already an additional line in the configuration script: esxcfg-auth - enablekrb5

    esxcfg-auth--enablekrb5--krb5realm=our.domain.com--krb5kdc=our.domain.com--krb5adminserver=our.domain.com

    Things go awry as soon as the last command entered.

    Harold

    enablekrb5 is not necessary.  The enablead will set up your kerberos configuration to talk to ad.  the krb5 option is used when you use a KDC that does not have active directory.  In addition, when you create an account on the side ESX, it's pretty much an account without password.  At least no password in UNIX file perspective shadow.  Authentication works by checking the files local to the user name (since the announcement does not serve for the Pb of the user, only authentication), then check the password in the local files, which do not have a password, so failure, and continuing to the announcement through kerberos, for a successful verification.  If you try to create an account with a password on the ESX system, then this is the problem.  You don't need to put it, in fact, it must be without password, so without posting, the user can connect to the system via ssh not effectively or console.
