[Samba] LDAP errors with v3.0.34 using the LDAP schema file with Sun DS 5.2

[Rob Mottishaw]

The format of the sambaDomainName object in the DIT (I've masked the 
sensitive information, don't let the ?'s and #'s throw you):


Distinguished Name: sambaDomainName=????,??=???,??=???
ObjectClasses sambaDomain
Attributes
sambaAlgorithmicRidBase 1000
sambaDomainName ????
sambaNextUserRid 1000
sambaSID #-#-#-##-##########-#########-##########

The attributes sambapwdhistorylength, sambalockoutthreshold, 
sambamaxpwdage are not included in the definition of the sambaDomainName 
object.  Any ideas?  The searching I've done indicates the attributes 
sambapwdhistorylength, sambalockoutthreshold, sambamaxpwdage should be 
included, in our case, they are not.

Thanks for any assistance,
Rob Mottishaw
