Hai, I need to add some extra indexing on my AD DB, and im not sure if what the correct/best methode is. And is there any reason i should not do this, i did search on the wiki, but could not find the info i searched for. I know the following. Checked the current index. ( source info : https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/LDB ) ldbsearch -H /var/lib/samba/private/sam.ldb -s base -b @INDEXLIST So i have a current list of indexes set and i did see that i miss and what i want. I want to index one/several of my mail attributes for zarafa/kopano. zarafaAccount/kopanoAccount Can someone or guide me a bit or point my to the correct info howto do this, since i dont want to mess up my AD. ;-) I did see an instruction for Zentyal, but vanilla samba, does not contain the searchFlags attribute. (source : https://exekias.me/2015/05/06/samba-indexes/ ) So to me the link here is not correct for me. Anyone? Tips examples very apriciated. Greetz, Louis

Tips examples very apriciated.This link looks correct, setting this via searchFlags is the correct approach. The @INDEXLIST is then updated by Samba at or before the next startup, triggering a re-index (possibly slow). Also note that Samba 4.7 is much, much faster than previous versions in the un-indexed case.

Hi Louis, I just checked and I can confirm that this does work, I have my own custom attributes in the @INDEXLIST in my AD: root at dc1:/# ldbsearch -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb -s base -b @INDEXLIST # record 1 dn: @INDEXLIST @IDXONE: 1 @IDXVERSION: 2 @IDXATTR: mycustomattrib1 @IDXATTR: mycustomattrib2 @IDXATTR: volTableIdxGUID @IDXATTR: USNIntersite @IDXATTR: uSNCreated @IDXATTR: uSNChanged [...] distinguishedName: @INDEXLIST # returned 1 records # 1 entries # 0 referrals I've gone back over my notes from when I created this, and I think that in my case I added the searchFlags: 1 attribute directly whilst adding my custom attributes to my AD schema; but I can't imagine it wouldn't also work if you add it later. Mine have been in place for the last 2.5 years, at any rate.
