Ok, I had ldap with samba working perfectly a few weeks ago. however, I had no root account, since i was told not to have a root account on ldap server, so someone recommended i do this in smb.conf...
passdb backend = smbpasswd
adding root user to samba with smbpasswd -a
then changing smb.conf to this
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1 smbpasswd
so it could use both, right?
So a while later I let fedora up2date upgrade samba 3.0.0 rpms to 3.0.2. Everything seemed to work fine afterward.
I looked in smbpasswd today, and I noticed all the ldap accounts, including the machine accounts are in there, as well as the root account. I thought this odd, so I removed smbpasswd from the aforementioned line, and oddly enough, none of the ldap accounts could use samba anymore, getting nt_login_failure or whatever!
however, in a command line, i can still id username and it shows their username, through ldap, and i can log in to unix with them(ssh and everything), but samba no longer recognizes them. can someone tell me what i did wrong, or if this is a bug or something? below i paste relevant parts of smb.conf
