Hello. I have a LDAP database with user data. For that I use posixAccout schema. Now I installed Samba 3, and want to use it as a file server ( and wins server for network browsing of course ). after I added samba.schema to my LDAP database, LDAP wont start anymore.. then I saw that Samba needs SID in its schema. My question now is - what number should I enter for SID?? I don't use

Hi, I've reported this before but I guess I'll have to do it again, since it's not fixed yet or I'm understanding something wrong here. The problem is that smbldap-useradd -w 'machinename' will add only posixAccount entrys into ldap but it should add both posixAccount and sambaSAMAccount entrys. So if one doesn't add correct machine account entrys manually to ldap

I'm trying to set up my LDAP in preparation to configure my Samba PDC.

Hello, I'm new in Samba Ldap. I use samba-2.2.3a and openldap2-2.1.4-46. I am going to load in Ldap a lot of users in a ldif file as it is shown below. But I don't know how to put samba password.

Hello folks, I am kinda confused as to how to get some values for ldap.

Hi Everybody, maybe we are just too stupid, but for me it seems that there is some problem with holding passwords completely sync between *NIX-world and WIN-world when I use LDAP & Samba. If a user changes a password under Windows, with "passwd chat" the *NIX-Password (attribute: userPassword) can be changend very well besides the both Samba-LDAP-attributes lmPassword and

Hi, is anybody out there who is using Novell Edir. with samba? I have searched the archive and found some random notes but no real success story. Here is what I have achived so far. Maybe someone can give me some hints. I have tried the samba-nds.schema that comes with the 2.2.7a tar ball.

Another question ... When using the LDAP SAM, should smpasswd change the POSIX password?

hi, I've a problem with adding workstations to my samba/ldap pdc - if i add the workstation with win2000 to the pdc then the workstation gets registered in ldap with the following entry: (i am using smbldap-useradd.pl -w -d /dev/null -g computers -c 'Computer Account' -s /bin/false %u) which seems to me to be ok, but the workstation tells me that it couldn't get attached to the
