Hello everyone,

I’m deploying samba on a CenOS Server following the guide  'Samba AD DC How To' at wiki.samba.org. Everything has gone right till I got to the section 'Configuring Bind as Samba Active Directory backend’. 

Firstly Bind could not access '/var/lib/samba/private/named.conf’ when adding the option 'include "/var/lib/samba/private/named.conf”;’ to /etc/named.conf. I got the error message of the subject. 

I “solved” this adding the content to the named.conf file at /etc/named.conf but it did not work neither. I got the following message:

Jul 30 00:33:27 braimone named[2299]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf'

SElinux is set to enforced but I’m not getting any error, the permissions are properly set and I don’t know what else I can do.

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advanced!
