MIGRATING FROM SAMBA 3 TO SAMBA ACTIVE DIRECTORY

EDUCATION – ISAE-SUPAERO

Why migrate from Samba 3 to Samba AD? Institut Supérieur de l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace SUPAERO talks about its experience: challenges, solutions, results…

Presentation

ISAE-SUPAERO was using Samba 3 and needed to migrate to Samba Active Directory. We supported them in their migration and trained their system administrators in the uses of Active Directory.

ISAE-SUPAERO infrastructure

ISAE-SUPAERO has 1,200 machines on 1 site, 3 adminsys, 3 Samba 3 domain controllers and 6000 users.

Problems encountered:

Computer security and improving stability

  • Improve the security of information systems
  • Improve the comfort and productivity of IT staff
  • Integrate Windows 10 workstations into the domain
  • Enable use of Samba-AD domain GPOs

SAMBA’s contribution to ISAE-SUPAERO

Better compliance with current technological standards: We strongly recommend the implementation of an Active Directory on our customers’ IT fleets to facilitate their management. This makes it possible to unify authentication across the park and identify machines on the network more effectively.

Improving ease of management for the 3000-machine, 4000-user park: Identifying your users is importantto control their rights and differentiate them according to their profile. This is the role of Active Directory, which allows you to manage your users through a management console.

Saving time: Migrating from Samba3 to Samba Active Directory requires a good knowledge of Samba. Thanks to our intervention and the transfer of skills for on-site system administrators, Supaero will manage its users and machines more easily and be able to reserve the time saved for other tasks.
