samba - Jan 2005 - samba with sun's ldap

Hello there

I'm also trying to get Sun Directory Server 5.1 (from Solaris9) to work 
with Samba 3.

I've loaded the DS5 schema file (from Samba 3.0.10) into Sun DS5, 
however when
Windows attempts to authenticate against Samba, Samba seems to be 
sending an invalid
request off to the Sun LDAP server:

[27/Jan/2005:12:22:39 +1100] - Entry 
"sambaDomainName=TESTDOMAIN,dc=our,dc=company,dc=com" -- attribute 
"objectClass" not allowed

It seems like Samba is sending a fundamentally invalid request off to 
the LDAP server?

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

The problem is the Samba-supplied file is not really well-formed in
terms of DS 5.x requirements. 

You can go on without a hassle turning schema validation off but I
wouldn't recommend it as a long-term solution (do not do this for
anything else then testing the setup).

I was able to reformat the schema a bit and it's been working OK since
then. I'd attach it in here but it is a Samba 2.2 schema. You will
have to experiment a bit and it should be OK (take other schema files
as examples).

Cheers,
