Samba Ldap experts,
I am trying to recompile samba to support ldap. After compiling samba
with --with-ldapsam, I had no errors with configure or
compilation. However, after starting up smbd and nmbd, I get these errors
in the log.smbd file when I try to connect to the server:
[2004/12/20 13:57:02, 0] lib/debug.c:reopen_logs(590)
Unable to open new log file /var/log/samba/smbd.log: No such file or
directory

Loading ldapsam:ldap://lincon.beloit.edu failed!
Is this a problem on the samba side or the ldap server side which is on
another server? Any hints about resolving it?
I am just not sure where to begin to look.

The --with-ldapsam configure option is for enabling the ldapsam_compat passdb backend, whith which you could use your old (samba2) ldap user database, until you convert it for using the newer (samba3) schema. I would recommend against using the ldapsam_compat passdb backend, as it there only for compatibility, and is not well tested. Cheers, Geza
Tim, It would help if you could include the smb.conf file! spike Tim Tyler wrote:> Samba Ldap experts, > I am trying to recompile samba to support ldap.
