Hi, I am running into a bit of a strange problem. I have a Perl script that creates usernames for mass-adding users. This script used to use the standard Linux 'adduser' command to add users to the system. I am now switching everything over to LDAP, including Samba. I have modified the custom Perl script to add users in bulk for smbldap-tools. system("smbldap_tools/smbldap-useradd -a

Trying to migrate NT4 to samba 3.0.0 or 3.0.1pre3 with an ldap backend. I add a backup server account to the domain and joined. Getting the SID and the ldap init seem to work, and I start windbind.

Hello, I'm trying to get Samba to work as a PDC for a group of Windows clients. I followed two tutorials form IBM developers works: 1) using Samba as a PDC (which is missing domain controller = yes), 2) Using an LDAP Directory for Samba authentication.

I tried to tune with some h help of openLDAP mailinglist members (indices, nscd), but i didn't
