This is source compiled on FreeBSD-5.0, configured with msdfs, acl, winbind, pam, krb5 and ldapsam. I use "net ads join" to join a W2K active directory server domain. Samba3.0a17 was able to do this, on the same machine, same environment and setup methods, but alpha18 is giving the following message: Assertion failed: (ld != NULL), function ldap_search_ext, file search.c, line 100. Abort (core dumped) Aug 14 20:53:25 x kernel: pid 2937 (net), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped) Anybody saw this? Is it a bug, or something I did wrong? Chere
