Hi, Can anyone give me a link for a step-by-step guide how to openLDAP with samba only for store the idmap in the directory? Specially with LDAP side configuration files examples? Thank you a lot. Marco.

I will help you to resolve the issues. See previous emails. I just updated the IDMAP chapter of the Samba-HOWTO-Collection because I found that the step to set the LDAP server access password had been left out for the example that you appear to be following. I sent you an email about that already. The updates HOWTO will appear on our web servers within 48 hours. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Samba-Team Member Phone: +1 (650) 580-8668 Author: The Official Samba-3 HOWTO & Reference Guide, ISBN: 0131453556 Samba-3 by Example, ISBN: 0131472216 Hardening Linux, ISBN: 0072254971 Other books in production.
John, It's very kind of you, I will wait your email. To answer you about the previous message: No I don't have initialized the LDAP server as you have mentionated in the chapter 6 because I tought that it was not necessary if I want only to store the Idmap resolution and neither I have to include the samba.schema in slapd.conf file also because I don't want to replicate the users on the samba server but only resolve them. Yes, I have smbpasswd -w secret, the same password for the ldap entry with ldif. Aniway all is born because I would like to use the LDAP only for Idmap backend since every time I have to change samba release with tdb files, samba changes the users and groups resolution or better the ADSLDAP or NT4SAM source account change. So if there is a method to made this relocation clearly I will appreciated it since I use also the ACL features and setting them everytime is a lot of work, but I'm also interest into LDAP. Thanks a lot. Marco. marco.meli@tiscalinet.it
