DNS sockets exhausting system about samba-domain

[aczwink]

I have found the issue.
The problem is that init.sh puts the dns forwarder at the top of the [global] section in smb.conf, however, the "samba-tool domain provision" (and maybe also join) command adds already a dns forwarder (the one from /etc/resolv.conf) far more down already, overriding the desired one (see my screenshot).
Samba will use the second one, which is the docker internal DNS server (127.0.0.11). Since the container is configured to have itself as its DNS server, this will cause a loop for every DNS lookup outside of the AD zone itself.
I fixed the issue and created a pull request.

Hi,

tried to replicate your problem with my version. I changed the naming of some config params and didn't updated the README examples. My bad.

Following command was run:

#build and cleanup
git clone https://github.com/burnbabyburn/docker-ubuntu-samba-dc
cd docker-ubuntu-samba-dc
docker build . -t samba-ad-dc
docker volume rm samba-data samba-config samba-etc

# create and run
docker volume create samba-data

docker volume create samba-config

docker run -t -i \
    -e "DOMAIN=OFFICE.COMPANY.COM" \
    -e "DOMAIN_PASS=Password1" \
    -e "ENABLE_DNSFORWARDER=192.168.1.1" \
    -e "HOSTIP=192.168.1.250" \

    --dns-search office.company.com \
    --dns 127.0.0.1 \
    --add-host localdc.office.company.com:192.168.1.250\
    -h localdc \
    --name samba-bbb \
    --privileged \
    --restart unless-stopped \
    samba-ad-dc

My docker Host with samba-ad-dc has 192.168.10 but i kept your IP address of 250 for localdc. so some output may look a little wierd

on win client

nslookup localdc.office.company.com 192.168.1.10

on docker host

dig @192.168.1.10 localdc.office.company.com

looks good to me. if the error persist, could you provide a log?

Yep, that's done the trick thank you. I have a couple of errors during the run from ntpd:

but after the sleep 300s expires, everything seems to run normally then. I also tried adding in --dns 192.168.1.1 to the run command but it made no difference. The server is remote so I haven't had a chance to try really using it yet, but the DNS queries seems to work properly now.

Can this be closed?

[frasou]

Actually not. It is still a problem.

docker version
Version: 20.10.24+dfsg1

uname -r
6.1.0-10-amd64

docker pull nowsci/samba-domain:latest

So with latest version, with exact configuration template , using docker-compose up -d
(samba-ad-dc runs on 192.168.100.252, docker-compose.yml is below)

from a PC in LAN:
host google.com 192.168.100.252

then on docker host:
ss -4pn | grep 53| wc -l
28231

and in htop process samba: task[dns] pre-fork master shows 100% CPU occupation
