irc discussion about account policies

[Volker Lendecke]

Hi!

Taking it to the mailing list...

02/02/06 14:59:49 <vl> coffeedude: I had a little argument with gd about accoun
t policies in ldap vs tdb and migration policy. What's the plan here?
02/02/06 14:59:53 <coffeedude> hey vl
02/02/06 15:00:18 <coffeedude> vl: we decided to force the admin to migrate the
 policies manually
02/02/06 15:00:26 <vl> Why???
02/02/06 15:00:57 <vl> It happened to me (with 3.0.21a to be honest) that I use
d to have them in LDAP, in between switched to pdb_tdb and returned to LDAP. Th
e changes I made via usrmgr did not arrive in LDAP although the attributes were
 there.
02/02/06 15:00:57 <coffeedude> vl: do you not remember this discussion ?
02/02/06 15:01:08 <vl> No, not really.
02/02/06 15:01:17 <vl> I did discuss that? I'm getting old...
02/02/06 15:01:34 <coffeedude> vl: maybe you weren't in on the thread......
02/02/06 15:01:57 * coffeedude membles that this is why we should always carry 
on discussions on the samba-technical ml
02/02/06 15:02:28 <vl> But I think this is broken. With the same argument we co
uld refuse to store password changes in LDAP when we find a user of the same na
me in a local tdb.
02/02/06 15:02:36 <coffeedude> vl: I'll reply but on the samba-technical ml in
case anyone else wants to jump in.
02/02/06 15:03:10 <vl> You can paste this little irclog :-)
02/02/06 15:03:14 * coffeedude vaguely remember vl complaining about how hard i
t is to get automatic upgrades working smoothly....
02/02/06 15:04:35 <vl> Yes, that sounds like me. But then I would not mind to j
ust ignore the tdb based values if we happen to have ldapsam.
02/02/06 15:04:37 <coffeedude> vl: IRC is *evil* :-)
02/02/06 15:04:38 <gd> coffeedude: yes, I will try to take care of the pam_winb
ind issue. Need access to a Solaris box though.
02/02/06 15:04:52 <coffeedude> I can give you access.
02/02/06 15:05:03 <coffeedude> gd: I'll mail you the details.
02/02/06 15:05:16 <vl> Ignore them as we do with smbpasswd and group mapping as
 well.
02/02/06 15:05:48 <coffeedude> vl: mailing list.  I can't  spend the time to di
scuss this right now.  I will reply to the ml though.

Volker
