I'm trying to iron out all the problems on my PDC. It's setup with a LDAP backend that's replicated to an ldap slave/BDC. Here's the problem: # smbldap-groupshow 'domain admins' dn: cn=Domain Admins,ou=People,dc=strozllc,dc=com objectClass: posixGroup,sambaGroupMapping gidNumber: 512 cn: Domain Admins memberUid: Administrator,root,astanley description: Netbios Domain

I'm trying to get Samba up but I can't seem to get the LDAP connection working correctly. I can run a search from ldapsearch, but samba is complaining that it can't connect. Here's the error from log.smbd [2004/12/29 16:04:04, 0] lib/smbldap.c:smbldap_connect_system(850) failed to bind to server with dn= cn=Manager Error: Invalid credentials [2004/12/29 16:04:04, 1]

I have no trouble joining the domain in our main office(samba PDC) or a branch office(samba BDC) but for some reason I can't join the domain at the branch office 2(also samba BDC) All three offices are running 3.0.11 and the 2 branch offices have identical configurations, aside from ip address'. The message I get from Windows XP is: The following error occured attempting to join the

I was currious about setting up load balancing for my company fileserver. This machine get's heavy usage and we would like to load balance the traffic over two 1 Gigabit NICS. How would this be best accomplished? Should we set up a firewall rules that will NAT for that machine or does samba have a built in mechinism? -- David Sonenberg Systems / Network Administrator Stroz Friedberg,

OK so I've got samba-3.0.11 compiled with ACL support. I've running 2.4.25 with the ACL/ATTR patch applied. I can read and set ACLS's using the getfacl/setfacl programs. ldd /usr/sbin/smbd shows it's linked to libattr.so.1 and libacl.so.1. I can read ACL with the smbcacls program, but when I try to set them I get: ERROR: Unable to open credentials file! Also from the

I recently upgraded my PDC's and BDC's to 3.0.14a but my member servers are still running 3.0.10. Today users complained that the couldn't logon to the member server.

Alright now that samba can talk to LDAP I have a blank slate. I know I need to setup group mappings, but I'm a little confused about this. Since it's an ldap backend do the groups need to have unix counterparts? Should I use the net groupmap command to add the mappings or should I use an LDIF file?

The machine name is getting loaded into ldap.
