Fwd: Re: [Samba] smbpasswd fails to add machine account with ldapsam

[Christoph Rudorff]

Hello!

The test report from today:

I compiled the 3.0.1pre3 version because ChangeLog says something about 
"cannot access LDAP when not root.." -> Bug #281 but is not solved 100%. 
smbldap-useradd.pl is doing fine, but samba still does not create 
sambaSamAccount. Samba still looks up machine accounts with ou=People 
regardless what I configure.

Further testing is delayed until monday.

ps: if anyone needs the full log(s) - no problem.

ps: why must it be root? A connection to ldap as "Manager" should be 
sufficent.
