23 >Unified Logons between Windows NT and UNIX using Winbind</A
35 >Integration of UNIX and Microsoft Windows NT through
36 a unified logon has been considered a "holy grail" in heterogeneous
37 computing environments for a long time. We present
41 >, a component of the Samba suite
42 of programs as a solution to the unified logon problem. Winbind
43 uses a UNIX implementation
44 of Microsoft RPC calls, Pluggable Authentication Modules, and the Name
45 Service Switch to allow Windows NT domain users to appear and operate
46 as UNIX users on a UNIX machine. This paper describes the winbind
47 system, explaining the functionality it provides, how it is configured,
48 and how it works internally.</P
59 >It is well known that UNIX and Microsoft Windows NT have
60 different models for representing user and group information and
61 use different technologies for implementing them. This fact has
62 made it difficult to integrate the two systems in a satisfactory
65 >One common solution in use today has been to create
66 identically named user accounts on both the UNIX and Windows systems
67 and use the Samba suite of programs to provide file and print services
68 between the two. This solution is far from perfect however, as
69 adding and deleting users on both sets of machines becomes a chore
70 and two sets of passwords are required both of which
71 can lead to synchronization problems between the UNIX and Windows
72 systems and confusion for users.</P
74 >We divide the unified logon problem for UNIX machines into
75 three smaller problems:</P
81 >Obtaining Windows NT user and group information
86 >Authenticating Windows NT users
91 >Password changing for Windows NT users
96 >Ideally, a prospective solution to the unified logon problem
97 would satisfy all the above components without duplication of
98 information on the UNIX machines and without creating additional
99 tasks for the system administrator when maintaining users and
100 groups on either system. The winbind system provides a simple
101 and elegant solution to all three components of the unified logon
110 >What Winbind Provides</A
113 >Winbind unifies UNIX and Windows NT account management by
114 allowing a UNIX box to become a full member of a NT domain. Once
115 this is done the UNIX box will see NT users and groups as if
116 they were native UNIX users and groups, allowing the NT domain
117 to be used in much the same manner that NIS+ is used within
118 UNIX-only environments.</P
120 >The end result is that whenever any
121 program on the UNIX machine asks the operating system to lookup
122 a user or group name, the query will be resolved by asking the
123 NT domain controller for the specified domain to do the lookup.
124 Because Winbind hooks into the operating system at a low level
125 (via the NSS name resolution modules in the C library) this
126 redirection to the NT domain controller is completely
129 >Users on the UNIX machine can then use NT user and group
130 names as they would use "native" UNIX names. They can chown files
131 so that they are owned by NT domain users or even login to the
132 UNIX machine and run a UNIX X-Window session as a domain user.</P
134 >The only obvious indication that Winbind is being used is
135 that user and group names take the form DOMAIN\user and
136 DOMAIN\group. This is necessary as it allows Winbind to determine
137 that redirection to a domain controller is wanted for a particular
138 lookup and which trusted domain is being referenced.</P
140 >Additionally, Winbind provides an authentication service
141 that hooks into the Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) system
142 to provide authentication via a NT domain to any PAM enabled
143 applications. This capability solves the problem of synchronizing
144 passwords between systems since all passwords are stored in a single
145 location (on the domain controller).</P
155 >Winbind is targeted at organizations that have an
156 existing NT based domain infrastructure into which they wish
157 to put UNIX workstations or servers. Winbind will allow these
158 organizations to deploy UNIX workstations without having to
159 maintain a separate account infrastructure. This greatly
160 simplifies the administrative overhead of deploying UNIX
161 workstations into a NT based organization.</P
163 >Another interesting way in which we expect Winbind to
164 be used is as a central part of UNIX based appliances. Appliances
165 that provide file and print services to Microsoft based networks
166 will be able to use Winbind to provide seamless integration of
167 the appliance into the domain.</P
176 >How Winbind Works</A
179 >The winbind system is designed around a client/server
180 architecture. A long running <B
184 listens on a UNIX domain socket waiting for requests
185 to arrive. These requests are generated by the NSS and PAM
186 clients and processed sequentially.</P
188 >The technologies used to implement winbind are described
196 >Microsoft Remote Procedure Calls</A
199 >Over the last two years, efforts have been underway
200 by various Samba Team members to decode various aspects of
201 the Microsoft Remote Procedure Call (MSRPC) system. This
202 system is used for most network related operations between
203 Windows NT machines including remote management, user authentication
204 and print spooling. Although initially this work was done
205 to aid the implementation of Primary Domain Controller (PDC)
206 functionality in Samba, it has also yielded a body of code which
207 can be used for other purposes.</P
209 >Winbind uses various MSRPC calls to enumerate domain users
210 and groups and to obtain detailed information about individual
211 users or groups. Other MSRPC calls can be used to authenticate
212 NT domain users and to change user passwords. By directly querying
213 a Windows PDC for user and group information, winbind maps the
214 NT account information onto UNIX user and group names.</P
222 >Name Service Switch</A
225 >The Name Service Switch, or NSS, is a feature that is
226 present in many UNIX operating systems. It allows system
227 information such as hostnames, mail aliases and user information
228 to be resolved from different sources. For example, a standalone
229 UNIX workstation may resolve system information from a series of
230 flat files stored on the local filesystem. A networked workstation
231 may first attempt to resolve system information from local files,
232 and then consult a NIS database for user information or a DNS server
233 for hostname information.</P
235 >The NSS application programming interface allows winbind
236 to present itself as a source of system information when
237 resolving UNIX usernames and groups. Winbind uses this interface,
238 and information obtained from a Windows NT server using MSRPC
239 calls to provide a new source of account enumeration. Using standard
240 UNIX library calls, one can enumerate the users and groups on
241 a UNIX machine running winbind and see all users and groups in
242 a NT domain plus any trusted domain as though they were local
245 >The primary control file for NSS is
248 >/etc/nsswitch.conf</TT
250 When a UNIX application makes a request to do a lookup
251 the C library looks in <TT
253 >/etc/nsswitch.conf</TT
255 for a line which matches the service type being requested, for
256 example the "passwd" service type is used when user or group names
257 are looked up. This config line species which implementations
258 of that service should be tried and in what order. If the passwd
263 >passwd: files example</B
266 >then the C library will first load a module called
269 >/lib/libnss_files.so</TT
273 >/lib/libnss_example.so</TT
275 C library will dynamically load each of these modules in turn
276 and call resolver functions within the modules to try to resolve
277 the request. Once the request is resolved the C library returns the
278 result to the application.</P
280 >This NSS interface provides a very easy way for Winbind
281 to hook into the operating system. All that needs to be done
284 >libnss_winbind.so</TT
289 then add "winbind" into <TT
291 >/etc/nsswitch.conf</TT
293 the appropriate place. The C library will then call Winbind to
294 resolve user and group names.</P
302 >Pluggable Authentication Modules</A
305 >Pluggable Authentication Modules, also known as PAM,
306 is a system for abstracting authentication and authorization
307 technologies. With a PAM module it is possible to specify different
308 authentication methods for different system applications without
309 having to recompile these applications. PAM is also useful
310 for implementing a particular policy for authorization. For example,
311 a system administrator may only allow console logins from users
312 stored in the local password file but only allow users resolved from
313 a NIS database to log in over the network.</P
315 >Winbind uses the authentication management and password
316 management PAM interface to integrate Windows NT users into a
317 UNIX system. This allows Windows NT users to log in to a UNIX
318 machine and be authenticated against a suitable Primary Domain
319 Controller. These users can also change their passwords and have
320 this change take effect directly on the Primary Domain Controller.
323 >PAM is configured by providing control files in the directory
327 > for each of the services that
328 require authentication. When an authentication request is made
329 by an application the PAM code in the C library looks up this
330 control file to determine what modules to load to do the
331 authentication check and in what order. This interface makes adding
332 a new authentication service for Winbind very easy, all that needs
333 to be done is that the <TT
341 control files for relevant services are updated to allow
342 authentication via winbind. See the PAM documentation
351 >User and Group ID Allocation</A
354 >When a user or group is created under Windows NT
355 is it allocated a numerical relative identifier (RID). This is
356 slightly different to UNIX which has a range of numbers that are
357 used to identify users, and the same range in which to identify
358 groups. It is winbind's job to convert RIDs to UNIX id numbers and
359 vice versa. When winbind is configured it is given part of the UNIX
360 user id space and a part of the UNIX group id space in which to
361 store Windows NT users and groups. If a Windows NT user is
362 resolved for the first time, it is allocated the next UNIX id from
363 the range. The same process applies for Windows NT groups. Over
364 time, winbind will have mapped all Windows NT users and groups
365 to UNIX user ids and group ids.</P
367 >The results of this mapping are stored persistently in
368 an ID mapping database held in a tdb database). This ensures that
369 RIDs are mapped to UNIX IDs in a consistent way.</P
380 >An active system can generate a lot of user and group
381 name lookups. To reduce the network cost of these lookups winbind
382 uses a caching scheme based on the SAM sequence number supplied
383 by NT domain controllers. User or group information returned
384 by a PDC is cached by winbind along with a sequence number also
385 returned by the PDC. This sequence number is incremented by
386 Windows NT whenever any user or group information is modified. If
387 a cached entry has expired, the sequence number is requested from
388 the PDC and compared against the sequence number of the cached entry.
389 If the sequence numbers do not match, then the cached information
390 is discarded and up to date information is requested directly

522 SAMBA machine, PAM (pluggable authentication modules) must
523 be setup properly on your machine. In order to compile the
524 winbind modules, you should have at least the pam libraries resident
525 on your system. For recent RedHat systems (7.1, for instance), that

1477 >Winbind has a number of limitations in its current
1478 released version that we hope to overcome in future
1485 >Winbind is currently only available for
1486 the Linux operating system, although ports to other operating
1487 systems are certainly possible. For such ports to be feasible,
1488 we require the C library of the target operating system to
1489 support the Name Service Switch and Pluggable Authentication
1490 Modules systems. This is becoming more common as NSS and
1491 PAM gain support among UNIX vendors.</P
1495 >The mappings of Windows NT RIDs to UNIX ids
1496 is not made algorithmically and depends on the order in which
1497 unmapped users or groups are seen by winbind. It may be difficult
1498 to recover the mappings of rid to UNIX id mapping if the file
1499 containing this information is corrupted or destroyed.</P
1503 >Currently the winbind PAM module does not take
1504 into account possible workstation and logon time restrictions
1505 that may be been set for Windows NT users.</P
1518 >The winbind system, through the use of the Name Service
1519 Switch, Pluggable Authentication Modules, and appropriate
1520 Microsoft RPC calls have allowed us to provide seamless
1521 integration of Microsoft Windows NT domain users on a
1522 UNIX system. The result is a great reduction in the administrative
1523 cost of running a mixed UNIX and NT network.</P
