samba - Dec 2004 - Solaris 9 and secondary group info from LDAP (Bug 395) - PATCH AVAILABLE from Sun

Hi,

finally the compatibility problems between the LDAP libraries from Sun
and OpenLDAP on Solaris 9, known as bug# 395, are solved. With Patch-ID
112960-22 everything is working as it should.

Tests were OK for a Samba PDC with LDAP backend and a Samba fileserver
with "security = ADS", both on Solaris 9 with native Sun LDAP client.
Secondary group information is requested from the LDAP Server and file
access rights are honoured from Samba and Solaris. 
Many thanks to all the people from Sun who helped me!


cheers,
Reinhard

Why oh why couldn't this have come out BEFORE I spent like 4 days testing
Sol 9
boxes with padl libraries and almost reconfiguring one of our main servers with
them!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Anyway, I'll be the first to test this out when I get back to work after
vacation since we've been hacking around the bug for some quite time.  Very
good to hear!
