I tried to use samba4 (alpha8) with openldap backend and followed the
instructions on:
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/LDAP_Backend/OpenLDAP
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO/Ubuntu_Server_9.04
and different other sources.
First try with debian packages, second with self compiled from git.
The script provision-backend is gone, so I only called provision (realm,
domain, role, etc ). After modifying the slapd.conf template it run
successful. In the template were the overlay options missing.
I can run slapd without errors. But how could I tell samba to use this
backend?
I know the "server service" directive and options like "sam database"
sam database = ldapi://%2fvar%2flib%2fsamba%2fprivate%2fldap%2fldapi
server services = smb, rpc, nbt, wrepl, cldap, kdc, drepl, winbind,
ntp_signd, kcc # But i am not familiar with the meaning of all.
slapd in debug mode shows some action on starting samba4, thats all.
Is there a need to add connection credentials like "smbpasswd -w"
Could someone, who has this configuration running, be so kind to send me
an example smb.conf
thanks in advance
Chris
