Univention Bugzilla – Bug 36110
Add AD member mode to system setup: Apply network settings immediately
Last modified: 2014-11-26 06:53:55 CET
As reported in the cloned bug, system-setup cannot check domains reliably unless the values given in the network page are applied immediately. We need to activate the settings while the wizard is running. Maybe we only need to do this if there was no network in the beginning (VM). +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #35653 +++ It should be possible to configure the AD member mode in the initial system setup wizard during the installation.
Ok, finally seems to work just fine. See also Bug#36285
As discussed, the root password should be asked if password is set in system/setup/boot/fields/blacklist

Fixed in univention-system-setup 8.1.34-3.741.201410310033
(In reply to Dirk Wiesenthal from comment #4) > Fixed in > univention-system-setup 8.1.34-3.741.201410310033 OK, the password field works. But I don't see that the network settings are changed for example the IP address.
I think I fixed it in univention-system-setup 8.1.49-2.761.201411061115 At least I could set a wrong DNS server in Debian installer, change it to the Master's IP in system-setup and the DC Master's name could be resolved when checking the credentials; join was successful. Done by running /usr/lib/univention-system-setup/scripts/30_net/* with the current values (and deleting the profile file afterwards). I have superficially checked for side effects and found none.

I think that it is a bad idea to apply the network settings now in any case, it takes too long and I would rather opt for a wizard were all settings are applied after the summary page. AFAIS, there are no validations being done server side when applying the settings. If not possible otherwise, I would apply the network settings after entering the AD credentials.

No validation is done. But only the network settings are applied, which have been validated at least "syntax-wise" by JS. The new network settings may also be needed for UCS domain members. In the installer / appliance mode, there are hopefully very few services installed that need to be restarted while applying the values. If the time it takes is a problem in these scenarios, please reopen the bug.
It works now as suggested. In appliance mode it took between 4 and 10 seconds in my tests. That's not an awesome value but I think it is OK.
