Hi... If you have successfully gotten samba 3.0.14a (or any other recent samba version) to work with ldap, can you perhaps email me your various config files so I can figure out what I am doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried every thing I can think of, but I can't get samba 3.0.14a to work with ldap. The ldap server seems to be working and smbclient seems to work for Administrator but not anyone else but I can't join any machines to the domain (XP has given me many different errors, but the most recent is "the specified network name is no longer available") I am assuming that posting long messages with every config file attatched is probably not going to win me any friends, so i have put them on the web at http://thor.ssfs.org/samba/ Thanks in advance, Rich

It is always a challenge to help them to find it. When they do find it, it is even more of a challenge to get them to help us to improve it so that others will have a perfect experience. Just this time, maybe you can help us to perfect our documentation. Please check out chapter 6 of the book "Samba-3 by Example" that is currently under copy edit before going into print. You can download this from our web site at: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf The documentation provides a step-by-step explanation of each file that must be configured to achive a working Samba+LDAP server. If any steps fails, please let me know as soon as possible so I can fix it before we lock this in. Thanks. PS: When you ran smbldap-useradd you did not include the -a option that creates the SambaSAM entries. - John T.
Rich I think you do not have all the .conf files that need edited for the IDEALX scripts setup correctly. When you performed the smbldap-populate, did you see the error message? "Can't call method "dn" on an undefined value at ./smbldap-populate line 433, line 15." Although I've never used the .8.7 version of the files, by following the directions, I did get .8.8 to work fairly easily.

Hi,
I read your output and I have some questions
1)
./net getlocalsid
"[2005/04/22 12:55:02, 0] param/params.c:OpenConfFile(537)
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file
"/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf":
No such file or directory
Where is your smb.conf ?
Normaly is /usr/local/samba/lib.
2)
What is the function of your samba server :
- PDC (idmap backend not necessary)
- AD member
- stand alone
3) in smbd.log, can you see that smbd connect correctly to ldap ?
4) in homes share, you can add path = /home/%U
5) where is the user administrator, in LDAP ?
this user must have the uid 0 or root right.
