Solaris 11: Mount SMB Share Locally

Tue, 31 May 2011 00:00:00 +0000

Currently I have been working on a method of migrating some of our data from Windows file servers to Solaris ZFS CIFS servers, of course trying to retain as much feature parity as possible. Permissions are an issue, however I have worked through most of those issues (look for this article in the future), now it is time to migrate data from Windows onto ZFS. This first crack will be about 1TB of data. Enter rsync. The “easiest” way to do this would be to use a Linux box in the middle to mount both the Solaris CIFS share and with Windows CIFS share and perform the rsync from there. A far more efficient way would be to mount the Windows CIFS share on the Solaris box or vice versa and perform the rsync between the two boxes. This article will document how to mount a Windows CIFS file share onto the local file system of the Solaris 11 Express box.

Configure Kerberos

Make a backup of our original, just in case.

bash

cp /etc/krb5/krb5.conf /etc/krb5/krb5.original.conf

These sections already exist in the file so you will want to replace them with the correct values for your environment.

 bash
 
 
vi /etc/krb5/krb5.conf

[libdefaults]
default_realm = ALLANGLESIT.COM

[realms]
allanglesit.com = {
kdc = dc.allanglesit.com
admin_server = dc.allanglesit.com
kpasswd_server = dc.allanglesit.com
kpasswd_protocol = SET_CHANGE
}

[domain_realm]
.allanglesit.com = ALLANGLESIT.COM

Quick recycle of the services or a start if they aren’t running.
