How to "Windows Authenticate"

More experimentation ...

I tried removing userdb and passdb from the dovecot NTLM config. That didn't
work. I then tried adding a static userdb as follows:

userdb {
  driver = static
#  allow_all_users = yes
  args = gid=100 home=/home/HPRS/%n
}

(Interestingly, when I uncommented "allow_all_users" I got an "unsupported
setting" [or something like that], even though that was in there from the
beginning and is shown in the example wiki http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm)

Anyway, in both tests my error messages were the same:

Sep 08 18:38:16 imap-login: Debug: SSL: elliptic curve secp384r1 will be used for ECDH and ECDHE key exchanges
Sep 08 18:38:16 imap-login: Debug: SSL: elliptic curve secp384r1 will be used for ECDH and ECDHE key exchanges
Sep 08 18:38:16 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=8758)
Sep 08 18:38:16 auth: Debug: client in: AUTH    1       NTLM    service=imap    session=vPWqBUQfeADAqAA6      lip=192.168.0.2  rip=192.168.0.58        lport=143       rport=56184
Sep 08 18:38:16 auth: Debug: client passdb out: CONT    1
Sep 08 18:38:16 auth: Info: ntlm(?,192.168.0.58,<vPWqBUQfeADAqAA6>): user not authenticated: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
Sep 08 18:38:18 auth: Debug: client passdb out: FAIL    1

Notice that my userid (mark or mark at ohprs) is nowhere to be found.  Whereas when
I specified the userdb passwd at least it had a user id in the error log.  From
my previous test with userdb passwd amd passdb shadow:

Sep 05 16:45:19 auth: Debug: client passdb out: OK      1      user=mark at hprs  original_user=mark at HPRS
Sep 05 16:45:19 auth-worker(5498): Debug: shadow(mark at hprs,192.168.0.58): lookup
Sep 05 16:45:19 auth-worker(5498): Info: shadow(mark at hprs,192.168.0.58): unknown user
Sep 05 16:45:19 auth: Debug: master userdb out: NOTFOUND       998899713

The "Info: ntml" log entry has ntlm(?,192.168.0.58,<vPWqBUQfeADAqAA6>), whereas
the previous test "Info shadow" log entry has Info: shadow(mark at hprs,192.168.0.58).

Of course I have no passdb specified which is right for NTML ... or is it?

I feel like this should be obvious to someone familiar with Dovecot. Once again,
it's difficult for me to believe no on on planet Earth (who also happens to
subscribe to this list) had ever done Dovecot/ntlm from Outlook before.

Help!!! If I can't get this last bit sorted out I'll be forced back to Server
2012 and Exchange.

Thanks, --Mark

Full user at domain would be mark at hprs.local

I was thinking this too.  I don't know why NTLM would need a userdb at all.  It
should just use something like ntlm_auth (which is configured in
auth_winbind_helper).

What if I simply removed the userdb?  What would you recommend for userdb, passdb?

$ wbinfo -u

These are all the AD users (most obfuscated for a bit of security). I am testing
with user mark.

Unless the Samba provision did something to nnswitch, I've done nothing; nor
have I seen anything in the Samba or dovecot wikis suggesting changes.  Remember
also that the Samba4 AD/DC works perfectly with redirected folders and users
logging on to any Windows workstations, and works perfectly with things wanting
"Windows Authentication" like SQLserver, so the "Windows Authentication" does
work at some level.  My /etc/nsswitch.conf is:

passwd:         compat
group:          compat

hosts:          files dns
networks:       files

services:       files
protocols:      files
rpc:            files
ethers:         files
netmasks:       files
netgroup:       files
bootparams:     files

automount:      files
aliases:        files

Yeah, I can't seem to find a soul on the planet who has actually done this. If I
get it figured out I'll post with a suggestion to Timo to wiki-ize it.

I'm a bit puzzled that no one appears to have done this. I would think that a
Samba4 AD/DC in a office environment with lots of Windows workstations running
Outlook would be about the most common environment there is; especially now that
Small Business Server is no longer sold and Server Essentials does not support
Exchange. What are all the SBS/Exchange/Outlook small businesses doing? Limping
along with SBS2008/11, or putting their email in Outlook.com? Seems like the
Samba4/dovecot/Outlook combo would be an ideal migration.

I appreciate your help.
