[Samba] Samba4alpha17 provisioning fails

[Clint Popovich]

Greetings everyone,

I've been trying to setup samba domain controller with an Fedora DS LDAP backend. Every time I attempt to provision samba I receive the error message. 


[root at Linux64test samba-4.0.0alpha17]# ./source4/setup/provision --realm=REDACTED.LOCAL --domain=REDACTED --server-role='domain controller' --ldapadminpass=Redacted --ldap-backend-type=fedora-ds --adminpass=Redacted --server-role=dc --ldap-backend-forced-uri='ldap://redacted:389'
You have specified to use an fixed URI ldap://threat03:389 for connecting to your LDAP server backend.  This is NOT RECOMMENDED, as our default communiation over ldapi:// is more secure and much less prone to unexpected failure or interaction

I have tried to run the provisioning with and without the --ldap-backend-forced-uri and receive the same error message.


Is anyone familiar with this issue and know a possible work around? I'm assuming this is a bug and not a feature.

If you need anymore info Please ask.

Thanks
