[Samba] test platform - samba + ldap issue smbldap-useradd hangs
Hello Guys, About a week ago I wrote in with a issue with smbldap-populate; it wouldn't populate because it was missing some packages. This has since been resolved. I am running redhat 9 on a test server, just for more experience really; I am using redhat 9 because of a scsi raid driver needed, please do not ask about this. Ok so here is where I am at> I have been using Samba 3 by example as it is a fantastic reference; ./smbldap-populate has populated the database perfectly. When i try to add a user smbldap-useradd -m -a username it just sits there; hanging. I press cntrl + c and repeat the process - it says username exists. I can id username and it shows the user in the correct groups; however pdbedit -Lv username reports username cannot be found. smbldap-userdel username also hangs. smbpasswd username also reports username not to be found. getent passwd & getent group shows that ldap is working. ldapsearch -x -h 127.0.0.1 -b "dc=tinistuff,dc=com" -D "cn=Manager,dc=tinistuff,dc=com" -W - this returns the ldap database as expected. I am having a few issues with debugging so at this stage I cannot provide a log file for ldap. Any ideas or suggestions is more then welcome and very much appreciated. I really appologise in advanced for the lack of the log file; I will try and get this sorted out. Could you also CC your reply to adrian_au1@hotmail.com Cheers, Adrian Sender.
