[Samba] Samba LDAP PDC not working together

[Kevin Kimani]

Hi,

I have configured my machine to run samba and LDAP as the PDC. But whenever
i enter the passdb backend: ldapsam:ldap://localhost/ on my smb.conf, i see
from my SWAT that smdb is not running and i cannot join the domain. Below
are my smb.conf and slapd.conf files

smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0)

# The next three lines allow use of TLS for encrypting connections using a
# dummy test certificate which you can generate by changing to
# /etc/pki/tls/certs, running "make slapd.pem", and fixing permissions on
# slapd.pem so that the ldap user or group can read it.  Your client
software
# may balk at self-signed certificates, however.

# Sample security restrictions
#    Require integrity protection (prevent hijacking)
#    Require 112-bit (3DES or better) encryption for updates
#    Require 63-bit encryption for simple bind
# security ssf=1 update_ssf=112 simple_bind=64

# Sample access control policy:
#    Root DSE: allow anyone to read it
#    Subschema (sub)entry DSE: allow anyone to read it
#    Other DSEs:
#        Allow self write access
#        Allow authenticated users read access
#        Allow anonymous users to authenticate
#    Directives needed to implement policy:
# access to dn.base="" by * read
# access to dn.base="cn=Subschema" by * read
# access to *
#    by self write
#    by users read
#    by anonymous auth
#
# if no access controls are present, the default policy
# allows anyone and everyone to read anything but restricts
# updates to rootdn.  (e.g., "access to * by * read")
#
# rootdn can always read and write EVERYTHING!
