NOTE
Currently only a domain administrator account, such as Administrator, can
join SUSE Linux Enterprise into Active Directory.
To join an AD domain in a running system, proceed as follows:
Procedure 12.1 Joining an AD Domain
1 Log in as root and start YaST.
2 Start Network Services > Windows Domain Membership.
3 Enter the domain to join at Domain or Workgroup in the Windows Domain
Membership screen (see
bership" (page 311)). If the DNS settings on your host are properly integrated
with the Windows DNS server, enter the AD domain name in its DNS format
(mydomain.mycompany.com). If you enter the short name of your domain
(also known as the pre–Windows 2000 domain name), YaST must rely on
NetBIOS name resolution instead of DNS to find the correct domain controller.
To select from a list of available domains instead, use Browse to list the Net-
BIOS domains then select the desired domain.
