[Samba] database got corrupted, users could not login

I'm running Samba with LDAP on SuSE. Users had trouble logging in - finally 
I just ran db_recover & restarted ldap and samba. It looks like the LDAP 
database got corrupted somehow because samba couldn't get the LDAP data. 
Also I created accounts with smbldap-useradd -m -a -B 1 username. Some of 
the users were just using the same password samba seemed to kick them out. I 
used pdbedit to tighten down the settings but it didn't seem to work with 
users of limited computer skills - they locked themselves out of the account 
with too many password tries. Maybe some of my settings for indexes are not 
the best...Here are some parts of the logs...

Thanks,

Anne
