samba - Apr 2009 - set up for Active Directory

Running Sun OS 5.10 sparc.

 

OK, I am trying to establish an Active Directory connection from my Sun
Solaris box and am trying to utilize Samba to accomplish this task. I've
installed OpenLDAP & Samba, but when I run a few checks, it appears that
Samba is not seeing KRB or ADS, but is seeing LDAP & WINBIND. 

 

(This is Samba 3.3.3)

# cd /usr/local/samba/sbin

# smbd -b|grep LDAP

   HAVE_LDAP_H

   HAVE_LDAP

   HAVE_LDAP_INIT

   HAVE_LDAP_SASL_WRAPPING

   HAVE_LDAP_SET_REBIND_PROC

   HAVE_LIBLDAP

   LDAP_SET_REBIND_PROC_ARGS

# smbd -b|grep KRB

# smbd -b|grep ADS

# smbd -b|grep WINBIND

   WITH_WINBIND

   WITH_WINBIND

 

I thought it might have been something with my ./configure script I ran
for samba, so I tried it again, but this time it tells me ldap is not
initialized:

 

configure:59398: checking whether LDAP support is used

configure:59400: result: yes

configure:59423: checking for Active Directory and krb5 support

configure:59437: result: yes

configure:59580: checking for ldap_initialize

configure:59663: result: no

configure:59676: error: Active Directory support requires
ldap_initialize

 

UGH! So frustrating. I've been at this one project for a week now and
still have not been able to get this to work. Please - any guidance you
can provide would be a great help! Thank you!

Did the howto that was previously posted not help?

My advice is to get the latest OpenLDAP and MIT krb5
libs and install those.  Then rebuild Samba.  Life is
to short to spend it trying to get code compiling :-)
But it's your call.
