I don't know if I should post this here or in the samba bugzilla but
here goes...
I am trying to get samba-ldap (editposix) to use the Inetorgperson
schema so that I can setup a samba domain using our existing ldap
directory. Our websites users are held in a LDAP directory that has user
info stored in the Intetorgperson schema where user names are in
cn=Username but smba-ldap users are stored in the 'account' schema as
uid=Username.
I think these patches https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4597
will change samba to use the InetOrgPerson schema so have built
Samba-ldap from the OpenBSD ports tree along with the two included
patches. I've read about the patches and have had a look at them but
don't realy understand how they work and whether I need to modify the
patches to enable the correct schema but have blindly started up samba
and my ldap server and have run the "net sam provision" command to
populate the directory but the users are still have uid= and not cn=
The ldap server that I am using with samba doesn't actually have the
inetorgperson schema in it yet as I haven't been able to figure out how
to get a working tree structure setup that contains InetOrgPerson
schema. I was hoping that as because I have applied the patches that the
"net sam provision" command would fail as the schema was wrong but as
it's not I am wondering if the patches have worked.
Can anyone give me some advice on what I could try next ?
Thanks
Keith
