Integrating Active Directory with NetVault Backup

NetVault Backup installed on a Windows or Linux machine can communicate with Microsoft Active Directory (AD). Additionally, NetVault Backup installed on a Linux machine can communicate with OpenLDAP Directory Services and Samba Active Directory. Integrating AD with NetVault Backup enables role-based access control in NetVault Backup. It lets users log in to NetVault Backup using their AD credentials. It also lets AD users manage NetVault Backup users.

 
* 
IMPORTANT: During Active Directory integration with NetVault Backup, the Active Directory service must always be available. Additionally, the NetVault Backup Server should be a member of the domain.

Adding an AD group to NetVault Backup and specifying privileges, levels of access, and notifications for the group ensures that members of the group have the corresponding access from the first time that they log on.

Considerations for Linux-based NetVault Backup

Before you integrate Active Directory (AD) with a Linux-based installation of NetVault Backup, consider the following conditions and prerequisites:

•
To let the Linux server communicate with AD, integrate NetVault Backup with the domain controller using Samba Winbind or System Security Services Daemon (SSSD).
•
Host name of the Linux machine should be set to its FQDN. (For example, mymachine.mydomain.com)
•
Enable the use of fully qualified domain names on the Linux machine on which NetVault Backup is installed. Short names are not permitted.
•
Samba Winbind: Under the [global] section, smb.conf must have the following entry:
winbind use default domain = no
•
SSSD: under the [domain/<domain name>] section, sssd.conf must have the following entry:
use_fully_qualified_names = True
•
On the Linux machine where NetVault Backup is installed, to retrieve all domain controller groups, enable enumeration of group databases.
•
Samba Winbind: Under the [global] section, smb.conf must have the following entry:
winbind enum groups = yes
•
SSSD: Under the [domain/<domain name>], to retrieve domain controller groups and to fetch groups from child and trusted domains, respectively, the sssd.conf must have the following entries:
enumerate = True
subdomain_enumerate = all

Managing AD users

The following list identifies what various users can and cannot do within NetVault Backup as it pertains to Active Directory (AD):

•
When an AD user logs in using an AD login, such as a domain name followed by the user name or a name that contains the @ symbol, NetVault Backup authenticates the login against Active Directory. This behavior lets an AD user log in to NetVault Backup even without a local NetVault Backup account.
•
If authentication succeeds and this is the first time that the user is logging in, NetVault Backup takes one of the following actions:
•
If a corresponding AD group exists in NetVault Backup, NetVault Backup adds the user and assigns the user the privileges, access levels, and notification settings that are defined for the corresponding AD group.
•
If the user does not have a NetVault Backup account, NetVault Backup adds the user but excludes all privileges, access levels, and notification settings. When the local NetVault Backup Administrator logs in, the administrator can view the AD user entry and assign the applicable privileges.
•
NetVault Backup automatically fetches the respective user details from the domain controller and stores it locally in the NetVault Backup database. In case of secure mode, the details are fetched from domain controller and overwritten in the NetVault Backup database on every successful login.
 
•
If authentication fails, NetVault Backup displays an error message and prevents the user from logging in.
•
All NetVault Backup administrators can view all local and AD NetVault Backup users.
•
An AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can add authenticated AD users; a local NetVault Backup Administrator cannot.
•
An AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can rename an existing NetVault Backup user to an authenticated AD NetVault Backup user; a local NetVault Backup Administrator cannot. You must ensure that the password fields remains empty to maintain the integrity of the user’s AD password.
•
Once the AD user is added in NetVault Backup, it cannot be renamed to any other user name.
•
No one can change an AD user’s password or set the password to use the Password never expires option.
•
A local NetVault Backup Administrator or an AD NetVault Backup user with administrative privileges can change user-based information that is accessed by using the Modify Details option as this information is stored in the NetVault Database. However, if the secure mode is enabled, the NetVault Backup administrator and other users are allowed to edit or change only E-mail 2 and E-mail 3 of an AD NetVault Backup user.
* 
NOTE: On Windows based NetVault Backup Server, if the Workstation attribute is set for a user in the AD database, then NetVault Backup fetches that information and stores it against the Workstation in the user details. If the user has multiple workstations, they display as separated by commas. If you want the AD user with the Workstation attribute set in AD to log in to the NetVault Backup Server, then the user must specify the NetVault Backup Server in the AD Workstations list.

On Linux-based NetVault Backup Server, the workstation field cannot be fetched, hence the user is unable to login. We recommended that workstation should not be set in AD for linux Server.

An administrator can perform the following tasks in NetVault Backup:

•
Adding an AD user
•
Deleting an AD user
