Hello, I'd like to use pam_ldap and nss_ldap to authenticate my samba users against a LDAP directory. I compiled samba 2.0.7 with the --with-pam option, configured my samba file in the pam.d directory as follows (default file supplied with the package): auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so auth required /lib/security/pam_unix_auth.so try_first_pass account sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so account required /lib/security/pam_unix_acct.so as well as the ldap.conf file according to the recommendations supplied with the RPM (my ldap.conf file is located in /etc/openldap): base, hostname etc... pam_ldap.so is located in the convenient directory and has the correct libraries linked to it. When I want to get connected to the samba server (from a NT workstation), I enter my login and a password and the connection is refused. I checked and the LDAP server does not receive any request for authentication (I put it in debug mode) (when I try to get connected to the server using a declared user on the machine, authentication fails as well, the LDAP server does not receive any request). Can anybody help ? Does it come from the smb.conf file ? Is there a howto ? Could someone that had this solution implemented send me his/her smb.conf, ldap.conf pam.d/samba files ? Are there other configuration files ? I thank you in advance for your help. Fabrice.
