samba - Oct 2005 - Redhat 9 Samba + LDAP PDC ./smbldap-populate issue

Hello Guys,

I have configured samba & ldap as a domain controller before, but never on a
redhat 9 system. I have updated samba & ldap as far as i can tell to the 
latest.

Firstly I have a smaller issue (I think) I get this error when trying to 
restart ldap, as usual I have followed the samba howto; however it's not the
documentation that is the problem more so an unusal problem or missing 
packages on my system.

ERROR1:

[root@Tini-Svr1 sbin]# service ldap restart
Stopping slapd:                                            [FAILED]
Starting slapd: Unrecognized database type (bdb)
                                                                 [FAILED]


ERROR2:

[root@Tini-Svr1 sbin]# ./smbldap-populate -a root -k 0 -m 0

[root@Tini-Svr1 sbin]#

As I have said, I don't think this is a configuration problem, more so 
missing modules or something.

Your help & time is appreciated.

As well as emailing the lists, can you please send me a personal email to >

Many Thanks,

So that speaks for itself does it? Your slapd is lacking bdb support,
you'll have to bite the bullet and use ldbm.

Install the ASN1 perl module.
