.SH "GENERAL OVERVIEW"
.PP
\fBadcli\fR
is a command line tool that can perform actions in an Active Directory domain\&. Among other things it can be used to join a computer to a domain\&.
.PP
See the various sub commands below\&. The following global options can be used:
.PP
\fB\-D, \-\-domain=\fR\fB\fIdomain\fR\fR
.RS 4
The domain to connect to\&. If a domain is not specified, then the domain part of the local computer\*(Aqs host name is used\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-R, \-\-domain\-realm=\fR\fB\fIREALM\fR\fR
.RS 4
Kerberos realm for the domain\&. If not specified, then the upper cased domain name is used\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-S, \-\-domain\-controller=\fR\fB\fIserver\fR\fR
.RS 4
Connect to a specific domain controller\&. If not specified, then an appropriate domain controller is automatically discovered\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-C, \-\-login\-ccache=\fR\fB\fIccache_name\fR\fR
.RS 4
Use the specified kerberos credential cache to authenticate with the domain\&. If no credential cache is specified, the default kerberos credential cache will be used\&. Credential caches of type FILE can be given with the path to the file\&. For other credential cache types, e\&.g\&. DIR, KEYRING or KCM, the type must be specified explicitly together with a suitable identifier\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-U, \-\-login\-user=\fR\fB\fIUser\fR\fR
.RS 4
Use the specified user account to authenticate with the domain\&. If not specified, then the name \*(AqAdministrator\*(Aq will be used\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-no\-password\fR
.RS 4
Don\*(Aqt show prompts for or read a password from input\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-W, \-\-prompt\-password\fR
.RS 4
Prompt for a password if necessary\&. This is the default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-stdin\-password\fR
.RS 4
Read a password from stdin input instead of prompting for a password\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-v, \-\-verbose\fR
.RS 4
Run in verbose mode with debug output\&.
.RE
.SH "QUERYING DOMAIN INFORMATION"
.PP
\fBadcli info\fR
displays discovered information about an Active Directory domain or an Active Directory domain controller\&.
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
$ adcli info domain\&.example\&.com
\&.\&.\&.
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE

$ adcli info \-\-domain\-controller=dc\&.domain\&.example\&.com
\&.\&.\&.
.fi
.if n \{\
.RE
.\}
.PP
\fBadcli info\fR
will output as much information as it can about the domain\&. The information is designed to be both machine and human readable\&. The command will exit with a non\-zero exit code if the domain does not exist or cannot be reached\&.
.PP
To show domain info for a specific domain controller use the
\fB\-\-domain\-controller\fR
option to specify which domain controller to query\&.
.PP
Use the
\fB\-\-verbose\fR
option to show details of how the domain is discovered and queried\&. Many of the global options, in particular authentication options, are not usable with the
\fBadcli info\fR
command\&.
.SH "JOINING THE LOCAL MACHINE TO A DOMAIN"
.PP
\fBadcli join\fR
creates a computer account in the domain for the local machine, and sets up a keytab for the machine\&. It does not configure an authentication service (such as
\fBsssd\fR)\&.
.sp
.if n \{\
.RS 4
.\}
.nf
$ adcli join domain\&.example\&.com

.PP
In addition to the global options, you can specify the following options to control how this operation is done\&.
.PP
\fB\-N, \-\-computer\-name=\fR\fB\fIcomputer\fR\fR
.RS 4
The short non\-dotted name of the computer account that will be created in the domain\&. If not specified, then the first portion of the
\fB\-\-host\-fqdn\fR
is used\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-O, \-\-domain\-ou=\fR\fB\fIOU=xxx\fR\fR
.RS 4
The full distinguished name of the OU in which to create the computer account\&. If not specified, then the computer account will be created in a default location\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-H, \-\-host\-fqdn=\fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR
.RS 4
Override the local machine\*(Aqs fully qualified domain name\&. If not specified, the local machine\*(Aqs hostname will be retrieved via
\fBgethostname()\fR\&. If
\fBgethostname()\fR
only returns a short name
\fBgetaddrinfo()\fR
with the AI_CANONNAME hint is called to expand the name to a fully qualified domain name\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-K, \-\-host\-keytab=\fR\fB\fI/path/to/keytab\fR\fR
.RS 4
Specify the path to the host keytab where host credentials will be written after a successful join operation\&. If not specified, the default location will be used, usually
/etc/krb5\&.keytab\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-login\-type=\fR\fB\fI{computer|user}\fR\fR
.RS 4
Specify the type of authentication that will be performed before creating the machine account in the domain\&. If set to \*(Aqcomputer\*(Aq, then the computer must already have a preset account in the domain\&. If not specified and none of the other
\fB\-\-login\-xxx\fR
arguments have been specified, then will try both \*(Aqcomputer\*(Aq and \*(Aquser\*(Aq authentication\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-os\-name=\fR\fB\fIname\fR\fR
.RS 4
Set the operating system name on the computer account\&. The default depends on where adcli was built, but is usually something like \*(Aqlinux\-gnu\*(Aq\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-os\-service\-pack=\fR\fB\fIpack\fR\fR
.RS 4
Set the operating system service pack on the computer account\&. Not set by default\&.
.RE
.PP

.RS 4
Set the operating system version on the computer account\&. Not set by default\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-service\-name=\fR\fB\fIservice\fR\fR
.RS 4
Additional service name for a kerberos principal to be created on the computer account\&. This option may be specified multiple times\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-user\-principal=\fR\fB\fIhost/name@REALM\fR\fR
.RS 4
Set the userPrincipalName field of the computer account to this kerberos principal\&. If you omit the value for this option, then a principal will be set in the form of
host/host\&.example\&.com@REALM
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-one\-time\-password\fR
.RS 4
Specify a one time password for a preset computer account\&. This is equivalent to using
\fB\-\-login\-type=computer\fR
and providing a password as input\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-trusted\-for\-delegation=\fR\fB\fIyes|no|true|false\fR\fR
.RS 4
Set or unset the TRUSTED_FOR_DELEGATION flag in the userAccountControl attribute to allow or not allow that Kerberos tickets can be forwarded to the host\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-add\-service\-principal=\fR\fB\fIservice/hostname\fR\fR
.RS 4
Add a service principal name\&. In contrast to the
\fB\-\-service\-name\fR
the hostname part can be specified as well in case the service should be accessible with a different host name as well\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-show\-details\fR
.RS 4
After a successful join print out information about join operation\&. This is output in a format that should be both human and machine readable\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-show\-password\fR
.RS 4
After a successful join print out the computer machine account password\&. This is output in a format that should be both human and machine readable\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-add\-samba\-data\fR
.RS 4
After a successful join add the domain SID and the machine account password to the Samba specific databases by calling Samba\*(Aqs
\fBnet\fR
utility\&.
.sp
Please note that Samba\*(Aqs
\fBnet\fR
requires some settings in
smb\&.conf
to create the database entries correctly\&. Most important here is currently the
\fBworkgroup\fR
option, see
\fBsmb.conf\fR(5)
for details\&.
.sp
Note that if the machine account password is not older than 30 days, you have to pass
\fB\-\-computer\-password\-lifetime=0\fR
to force the update\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-\-samba\-data\-tool=\fR\fB\fI/path/to/net\fR\fR
.RS 4
If Samba\*(Aqs
\fBnet\fR
cannot be found at
/usr/bin/net, this option can be used to specific an alternative location with the help of an absolute path\&.
.RE
.PP
If supported on the AD side the
\fBmsDS\-supportedEncryptionTypes\fR
attribute will be set as well\&. Either the current value or the default list of AD\*(Aqs supported encryption types filtered by the permitted encryption types of the client\*(Aqs Kerberos configuration are written\&.
.SH "UPDATING THE MACHINE ACCOUNT PASSWORD AND OTHER ATTRIBUTES"
.PP
\fBadcli update\fR
updates the password of the computer account on the domain controller for the local machine, write the new keys to the keytab and removes older keys\&. It keeps the previous key on purpose because AD will need some time to replicate the new key to all DCs hence the previous key might still be used\&.
.sp
