Hello,

All the files are stored in /etc/

The following files get modified if you join a Linux Machine to Domain.

  1. /etc/krb5.conf
  2. /etc/nsswitch.conf
  3. /etc/samba/smb.conf
  4. /etc/ntp.conf
  5. pam files in /etc/pam.d/

All the files are not stored in a single location but the above mentioned files get modified.

Thanks.

many thanks nishanth9042

Next upcoming question is where the “Mount Server Directories” config file of the Expert Settings Dialog is stored.
I have a problem there. The /home/<domain>/<user>-Dir is mounted correctly but a /groups-Dir isn’t.
With the mount command i cannot see the mount points of /home/<domain>/<user> and /groups.

I am unable to mount server directories. So I can’t say where those settings are saved. I doubt these two files /etc/fstab and /etc/samba/cifstab

I’m not running what your’e describing so can’t check but systemd also can mount through its own service(s).
A long time ago when systemd was new, there was only one mount service but now I’m seeing many. Perhaps one is what you’re looking for.

To list various mount services on your system

systemctl -a | grep mount

To inspect the configuration of the particular service, query the status as follows

systemctl status *systemd-Unitfile*

HTH,

Hello again,
I am now able to answer my question myself :slight_smile:
The concerning file is /etc/security/pam_mount.conf.xml. There is a debug switch inside, which can help further.
I am now able to mount home-dirs and group-dirs automatically at login BUT NOT with ssh-login.
So I think I have to create another thread with pam_mount and ssh :frowning:
Anyone who needs help for the first results can ask me. I will help as far as I can.
Thx to all
