Hi,
I have set up a fresh DC from scratch using samba 4.5.1 with Bind9,
added another DC, all strictly following the instructions in the samba wiki.
Samba was built from the source tarball on debian/raspbian 8u8 (Jessie),
Bind9 is 9.9.5-9 coming with the OS.
Everything appears to be in a working order: I can join Windows
workstations, add Users with RSAT, etc.
Only when comparing the content of the two DCs I get a strange result,
some attribute names become upper-case on the second DC:
samba-tool ldapcmp ldap://dc1 ldap://dc2 domain --filter=whenChanged
shows countless records like
Comparing:
'OU=Domain Controllers,DC=ad,DC=sprungweg,DC=ch' [ldap://dc1]
'OU=Domain Controllers,DC=ad,DC=sprungweg,DC=ch' [ldap://dc2]
Attributes found only in ldap://dc1:
ou
Attributes found only in ldap://dc2:
OU
FAILED
and the final result
* Result for [DOMAIN]: FAILURE
SUMMARY
---------
Attributes found only in ldap://dc1:
ou
cn
dc
Attributes found only in ldap://dc2:
OU
CN
DC
ERROR: Compare failed: -1
Is that the expected behaviour, or did I do something wrong?
I assume that the attribute case does not matter, but why does then
ldapcmp complain about the difference in case?
regards,
Norbert
