Ralph, I bringed that issue on IRC (#samba-technical on freenode):
17:46 < bubulle> hmmm, I looking again at what we reported as #5886 (Debian bug
#505215). It seems that our
user's analysis is very complete and he probably proposes the
right patch
17:47 < bubulle> could someone with the right knowledge of what's inside
source/passdb/pdb_ldap.c look at this
bug?
17:53 <@idra> bubulle, N is not recognize by many ldap libraries and should not
be used indeed
17:53 <@idra> it adds really nothing, just changes the ASN.1 encoding
incompatibly
17:54 <@idra> bubulle, do you gave means to reproduce it ?
17:55 < bubulle> idra: the original bug submitter in Debian (mentioned in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505215)
probably has
17:55 <@idra> bubulle, ok you should try with a patch that removes N compeltely
and leaves only "}"
17:56 * bubulle no. I have no samba setup with LDAP...and I'm very dumb with
this
17:56 <@idra> I think I had the same error in FreeIPA and it even prevented
compiling against mozldap libraries
as N is something only recent openldap libraries understand
17:57 <@idra> (and is not necessary)
("idra" is Simo Sorce from the Samba Team)
Could you try reproducing the bug with the fix proposed by Simo?
