Looking through this chapter today and ran across the following inconsistency under the section NT4 Migration Using LDAP Backend. Step 3 says "3. Create a file called preload.LDIF as shown in Example 8.1. Edit the contents so that the domain name and SID are correct for the site being installed." Then step 4 says "4. Preload the LDAP database so it is ready to receive the

Hi, I'm trying to setup a Samba with ldap backend, I followed tha samba by example chapter 6, followed the instcution in the book, and when it says to add an idmap data container, LDAP won't allow me to add the idmap something like this : adding new entry "ou=Idmap,dc=test,dc=co,dc=id" ldapadd: update failed: ou=Idmap,dc=test,dc=co,dc=id ldap_add: Constraint violation (19)

Quick question: In the Samba-by-example, (Chapter 5, Page 188 of PDF) ---quote--- 4. Edit the /etc/smbldap-tools/smbldap.conf file so that the following information is changed from: # Where to store next uidNumber and gidNumber available sambaUnixIdPooldn="cn=NextFreeUnixId,${suffix}" to read, after modification: # Where to store next uidNumber and gidNumber available

Hi! I have been reading the Samba 3 by example avaible on the web site (samba-guide.pdf), I think it is very good, but have a question: - In section 6.3.5 (page 150, numerated), there is a note wich says that the computers account must be inside the People container due to an error in samba. Is this true?, or can it be due to the config of the nss-ldap and the pam-ldap modules wich is on

Hi there, I am reading the Samba3-By-Example dated 29Dec2005. I've found that there's no information on telling how to make a successful deployment on interdomain trust, but this is the missing Chapter that I am really looking for. Anyway, my question is beside Winbind, do I need to configure krb5 on Samba (Domain A) when talking to Win2003SP1 on Domain B? Best Wishes and Happy New Year

I have spent a solid two weeks trying to implement the "Secure Office Networking" example in the book "Samba-3 by Example, to no avail. In the example, the system sets the server up as a Samba PDC, and also as a router for two local subnets. There are three network interfaces on the computer: eth0 for the WAN/Internet, firewalled; eth1 & eth2 for two LAN subnets, bound to

Hi All, I am going through a setup of a test samba3 box with rh9 with my self rolled copy of 3.0.10. I have removed the old rpm version of samba. I compiled 3.0.10 with all defaults except for the install prefix which I set to /usr/local/samba3. I followed the steps given in Chap 6 - making users happy in the online html version. I changed a few things. Instead of MASSIVE as the PDC name I

If I have read the documentation correctly, it looks like you can not have a fail over LDAP server defined in the smb.conf file for the passdb backend. It looks like this feature was taken away in an earlier release. Is this correct? If not could somebody steer me in the right direction. Thanks, Gary

Hi, I am using Samba 3.0.10 PDC with LDAP as password DB. Before we use smbpasswd as passwd DB and every time I need to add a machine account into /etc/passwd so that the mahcine can join the domain. My understanding for LDAP is, this step is not needed any more since we will put all machine account into "ou=Computers". But I am proved to be wrong. Is this the way Samba works? I

Hi All, Has any one got an idea of how to make clients automatically find the BDC when the PDC is stopped. Both PDC and BDC are running by Samba authenticating again a LDAPSAM backend replicated on both the PDC with master LDAP database and BDC with replicated LDAP database. But when I stop PDC the clients are not detecting the BDC broadcast. I can see that the replication is of

Hi. I'm having some trouble when trying to join a SAMBA machine, acting as a member server, to a NT-style domain server managed by a SAMBA PDC using an LDAP back-end. Both machines are running samba-3.0.10-1.4E.6 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.1 Update 3 for AMD64. When trying to add the member server to the domain, it fails with an error message. However, if I try to add it again, the
