[Samba] Could not join the domain - Samba and Openldap
Our PDC accidentally crashed and to eliminate down time, I quickly set up one of the BDC to be the new PDC. I copied all the configuration file of PDC to the BDC. These files are slapd.conf, ldap.conf, smb.conf, etc.... Now that the PDC is up and running again, I want to put it back to the way it was since the BDC did not run to a functional state anyway. Here is a snippet of the debug when I run "net rpc testjoin -d 10" on PDC. [2008/09/30 00:43:29, 5] libsmb/namecache.c:namecache_fetch(214) name Domain Name#1B found.

I can ping the PDC by IP and by netbios name. Running nmblookup on the PDC gives me positive response. I am running samba 3.0.32 with openldap backend. Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks, -Ivan
