I'm switching from OpenLDAP to the newly released Fedora Directory Server (formely known as the Netscape Directory Server) as a LDAP backend for my Samba domain. I'm now faced with a problem regarding how Fedora DS handles the userPassword field. Unlike OpenLDAP it encodes it in base64 so instead of reading userPassword: {SSHA}0lP+r3Z1NVan7Caf4CG9oSgnTbQRrv/p it reads: userPassword::

Hi, I'm back on the list ;-) I seem to be having some trouble getting W2K machines to join the domain in 3.0.1rc2. I haven't looked at this in detail since 2.2.8a but it looks like the account gets created in LDAP and then it has trouble setting the password appropriately. I believe this is the relevant part of the log: api_rpcTNP: samr op 0x3a - api_rpcTNP: rpc command:

Hello, I have problems connecting notebooks over wireless LAN to Samba 2.2.3a. I don't know, wether this is a problem about wireless LAN or a problem about subnetting (or an other reason).

Hi, I'am running a small samba server at work with 10+ users in the domain (all of them added with W2KSP1 and 2.2.3 or 2.2.4).

Dear list, I have a pretty small samba setup with one samba server acting as PDC and 6 pretty diverse clients. I had no problem joining two win98 clients and one XP client and two win2000 clients to the domain. There is only one win2000 client which I simply can't join. In the samba logs I find decode_pw_buffer: incorrect password length whenever I try to join this PC using the root user.

Strange. Both systems are Linux. I compiled the LDAP slave Samba with CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686" and SuSE's GCC 3.3.1. The fine working master got the same CFLAGS but SuSE's GCC 2.95.3. Without CFLAGS the GCC 3.3.1 works fine too. Didn't know that optimization (and GCC>3) is that dangerous.... Thanks anyway Daniel ------ Hi! We have a replicated LDAP Samba network. I
