Additional Linux Commands

authenticate --show [--login_group]

Syntax

authenticate --show --login_group

Result

Login group: acmeADS\Domain Admins

authenticate --join --domain <domain name> [--ou <org-unit name>] --user <user name>

Note: If you had previously joined the DR Series system to an ADS domain before running Restore Manager (RM), after it completes you must manually rejoin the desired ADS domain using the authenticate --join command.

Syntax

authenticate --join --domain ads.storage.local --user administrator

Result

Enter password for administrator@ads.storage.local:
Successfully joined domain ads.storage.local
Disabling NTP service... done.
Updated Windows Access Server Configuration.
Updated Kerberos configuration.
Updated machine password.
Updated DNS.
Restarting Windows Access Server... done.

Note: The --ou command is optional and allows for defining a specific organizational group in the ADS that may require its own administrative access rights (such as an executive management or finance group).

authenticate --leave [--user <user name>] [--force]

Syntax

authenticate --leave --user administrator

Result

Enter password for administrator@ads.storage.local:
Successfully left domain ads.storage.local.
Updated Windows Access Server configuration.
Updated Kerberos configuration
Restarting Windows Access Server... done.
Enabling NTP service... done.

Note: The --force command is optional and allows the DR Series system to leave the ADS domain when communication between the system and the ADS domain is lost and the --leave operation is pending or in progress.

authenticate --update --kerberos

Syntax

authenticate --update --kerberos

Result

Updated kerberos configuration.
