windows_ad

This is the windows_ad puppet module.

##Introduction This is the windows_ad puppet module. Inspired from opentable/windows_feature module and from martezr/windows_domain_controller for the installation and configuration of a windows domain

This module have two main roles :

  • Install & configure AD
  • Manage Users/OU/Groups in your Active Directory

This module permit you to install a Windows AD Domain controller on a Windows Server.

Moreover, it allows you to create/Remove User in Active Directory, but also permit you to create/Remove Organisational Unit in Active Directory

This module have been tested on Windows Server 2012 r2, should work on Windows Server since 2008 R2. Puppet open source v3.5.1 and v3.6.2, the puppetmaster version is v3.4.3 (on ubuntu 14.04 LTS). Should work since version 3.5.1 of puppet

##Last Fix/Update V 0.3.1 :

  • Fix add user. (dsquery.exe doesn't seem to work anymore) - Works with fullname value
  • Add Pull Request #8 (fix readme for Group) V 0.3.2 :
  • Fix add group and groupmember dsquery.exe doesn't seem to work anymore).

##Module Description

For now, the module allow the installation and creation of new domain, in a new forest. You can also do :

  • Manage object in your AD :
  • User,
  • Users,
  • OU,
  • Group,
  • Group Members

###Setup Requirements

Your puppet.conf need to have this following line:

ordering=manifest

For using windows_ad::users resource you need to put parser=future in your puppet.conf Adding multiple users it's possible with or WITHOUT parser=future parameter. Please read the next sections

Depends on the following modules:

##Usage

Class: windows_ad

present, installmanagementtools => true, restart => true, installflag => true, configure => present, configureflag => true, domain => 'forest', domainname => 'jre.local', netbiosdomainname => 'jre', domainlevel => '6', forestlevel => '6', databasepath => 'c:\\windows\\ntds', logpath => 'c:\\windows\\ntds', sysvolpath => 'c:\\windows\\sysvol', installtype => 'domain', dsrmpassword => 'password', installdns => 'yes', localadminpassword => 'password', }">Example - Create a new forest

Other install and configuration parameters can be set check the init.pp in manifests folder.

For adding Organisational Unit :

present, path => 'DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', ouName => 'PLOP', }"> windows_ad::organisationalunit{'PLOP':
ensure => present,
path => 'DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
ouName => 'PLOP',
}

For adding a simple User :

present, domainname => 'jre.local', path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', accountname => 'test', lastname => 'test', ## Not mandatory. But for this 2 parameters you need to declare at least one firstname => 'test', ## or use fullname parameter ! passwordneverexpires => true, passwordlength => 15, # must be number so don't put '' password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd', # You can specify a password for the account you declare xmlpath => 'C:\\users.xml', # must contain the full path, and the name of the file. Default value C:\\users.xml writetoxmlflag => true, # need to be set to false if you doesn't want to write the xml file. Default set to true emailaddress => 'test@jre.local', }"> windows_ad::user{'Add_user':
ensure => present,
domainname => 'jre.local',
path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
accountname => 'test',
lastname => 'test', ## Not mandatory. But for this 2 parameters you need to declare at least one
firstname => 'test', ## or use fullname parameter !
passwordneverexpires => true,
passwordlength => 15, # must be number so don't put ''
password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd', # You can specify a password for the account you declare
xmlpath => 'C:\\users.xml', # must contain the full path, and the name of the file. Default value C:\\users.xml
writetoxmlflag => true, # need to be set to false if you doesn't want to write the xml file. Default set to true
emailaddress => 'test@jre.local',
}

For adding multiple Users WITH parser=future:

'test', lastname => 'test', firstname => 'testtest', passwordneverexpires => true, passwordlength => 15, fullname => 'The test', }, { ensure => present, path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', accountname => 'test2', lastname => 'test2', firstname => 'test22', passwordneverexpires => true, passwordlength => 9, password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd', emailaddress => 'test2@jre.local', } ] windows_ad::users{'Add_Users': domainname => 'jre.local', users => $users, xmlpath => 'C:\\users.xml', # must contain the full path, and the name of the file. Default value C:\\users.xml writetoxmlflag => true, # need to be set to false if you doesn't want to write the xml file. Default set to true }"> $users = [
{
ensure => present,
path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
accountname => 'test',
lastname => 'test',
firstname => 'testtest',
passwordneverexpires => true,
passwordlength => 15,
fullname => 'The test',
},
{
ensure => present,
path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
accountname => 'test2',
lastname => 'test2',
firstname => 'test22',
passwordneverexpires => true,
passwordlength => 9,
password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd',
emailaddress => 'test2@jre.local',
}
]

windows_ad::users{'Add_Users':
domainname => 'jre.local',
users => $users,
xmlpath => 'C:\\users.xml', # must contain the full path, and the name of the file. Default value C:\\users.xml
writetoxmlflag => true, # need to be set to false if you doesn't want to write the xml file. Default set to true
}

For adding multiple Users WITHOUT parser=future:

{ ensure => present, path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', accountname => 'test', lastname => 'test', firstname => 'testtest', passwordneverexpires => true, passwordlength => 15, fullname => 'The test', }, 'test2' => { ensure => present, path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', accountname => 'test2', lastname => 'test2', firstname => 'test22', passwordneverexpires => true, passwordlength => 9, password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd', emailaddress => 'test2@jre.local', }, } create_resources(windows_ad::user, $userhash) "> $userhash = {
'test' => {
ensure => present,
path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
accountname => 'test',
lastname => 'test',
firstname => 'testtest',
passwordneverexpires => true,
passwordlength => 15,
fullname => 'The test',
},
'test2' => {
ensure => present,
path => 'OU=PLOP,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
accountname => 'test2',
lastname => 'test2',
firstname => 'test22',
passwordneverexpires => true,
passwordlength => 9,
password => 'M1Gr3atP@ssw0rd',
emailaddress => 'test2@jre.local',
},
}

create_resources(windows_ad::user, $userhash)

About password: the password will be auto-generated or now you can specify your own password (min 8 characters, one alpha, one numeric, one special characters at least) Passwords will be saved to users.xml on your c: drive (C:\users.xml)

For adding a Group :

present, displayname => 'Test', path => 'CN=Users,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL', groupname => 'test', groupscope => 'Global', groupcategory => 'Security', description => 'desc group', }"> windows_ad::group{'test':
ensure => present,
displayname => 'Test',
path => 'CN=Users,DC=JRE,DC=LOCAL',
groupname => 'test',
groupscope => 'Global',
groupcategory => 'Security',
description => 'desc group',
}

For adding members to a Group :

present, groupname => 'groupplop', members => '"jre","test2"', }"> windows_ad::groupmembers{'Member groupplop':
ensure => present,
groupname => 'groupplop',
members => '"jre","test2"',
}

For the group members respect the syntax : '"samaccountname","samaccountname"' and if only one member :'"jre"' The module doesn't delete users if you let ensure to present, and modify only the members list Otherwise, if you let in the list of the members you want to delete and put ensure to absent, then the module will delete only the members in the list
