G'Day Rowland,
The client-side log shows smbclient contacting smbd fine and getting to
the session setup, so it isn't the protocol version.
Emil,
The logs we need are from Samba on the server, not smbclient.
The use of LDAP by Samba in this configuration is all 'behind' smbd,
not related at all to the smbclient call.
eg
[smbclient] <- SMB -> [smbd] <- LDAP -> [slapd]
The use case here is for Samba as a standalone server using an LDAP
server for the passdb. This is a rare configuration, almost all users
of this mode have Samba as DC so that multiple Samba servers can share
the same LDAP backend (even if that functionality is unused). This is
because each server has an internal 'domain' if not a DC, and that has
a SID, and each LDAP entry can only have one SID.
Do you have multiple servers referring to this backend?
Thanks,
Andrew Bartlett
