Hi there,

I'm attempting a classicupgrade from Samba3 to Samba4 with an LDAP 
backend and encountering this error:
dpadmin at samba4-dev0:~$ samba-tool domain classicupgrade 
--dbdir=/var/lib/samba --use-xattrs=yes  --realm=ad.digipen.edu 
/home/dpadmin/smb.conf 2>&1 | tee SambaMigration10.log

Next rid = 132072

in upgrade_from_samba3
     raise ProvisiongError("Could not open ldb connection to %s, the 
error message is: %s" % (url, e))

I have this in my config files:
# Password Database
#---------------------
# passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost
# passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ldap.digipen.edu 
ldap://ldap-primary.digipen.edu
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://204.174.42.81
ldap admin dn = uid=redacted,ou=system,dc=digipen,dc=edu
ldap ssl = start tls
ldap passwd sync = yes
ldap delete dn = no
ldap suffix = dc=digipen,dc=edu
ldap user suffix = ou=people
ldap group suffix = ou=groups
ldap machine suffix = ou=computers
ldapsam:trusted = yes

The rest of the migration (including a lot of init_sam_from_ldap) works 
fine, and back on 4.0-beta it did *not* produce this issue. 
Unfortunately I can't go back to that version.

Help wanted :(
