[Samba] Problem logon to PDC

Hi John,

I am currently working on a document with samba, openldap, drbd + heartbeat;

I strongly suggest you make one of your nodes a backup domain controller 
using openldap to replicate the database; this will avoid many issues that 
you are experiencing.

I point users home directories, profiles & shares to the virtual cluster IP; 
this allows domain logons to load roaming profiles whether you login to the 
pdc or bdc. I do this through the smbldap.conf file.

Document should be ready in a few months.

Thanks,

Adrian Sender.

Hello,

I have setup a cluster system with drbd and heartbeat. I have samba running
as a PDC. Everything works great when I am on server1 But when failover
ocuurs I cannot seem to log on the domain anymore.
I Have symlinks to my home share : /var/cache/samba , /etc/samba/ who are
synced between 2 servers.
Do I have to sync another files ??

greets
John
