[Samba] MS Sharepoint 2010 configuration fails with Samba/Openldap PDC

[Andreas Krupp]

Thank you very much Gents for the hint with Alfresco & Samba4.
I will try out the Samba4 thingy first.
Daniel, I am trying to set-up a POC for an integrated enterprise resource
management system using MS Sharepoint, Project, Exchange. 

Would anybody know anyway how to add the proper way the
"sambaTrustedDomainPassword" objectClass???

Cheers & thx a lot!
Andreas

If sharepoint is expecting an AD DC, then you really have no option but to
run an AD DC.  See our wiki at
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/samba3upgrade/HOWTO for an
explanation of the process of upgrading to Samba 4.0 as an AD DC.

An OpenLDAP server simply won't have the right structure that sharepoint is
looking for.

Using "Alfresco" for certain Sharepoint things would do the job with
samba3/Ldap.
