[Samba] OpenLDAP domain registering

[arun.sasi1 at wipro.com]

Hello Team,

I am using samba 3.6.3 in ubuntu as file server and also I have a domain controller in my organization both are different servers.

I am able to register SAMBA as domain controller successfully, and I could see SAMBA Domain with SID populated in my OpenLDAP. But my problem is when I configure samba as file server. SAMBA is pulling the host name and registering to OpenLDAP as domain.

Example My Domain name is test.

My file server host name is fileserver01

I could see test and fileserver01 in my openldap with SID. why this is happening, since this is just configured as file server. and also I do not have winbind configured in my file server. below are my configuration details.
