Hi !
I'm in trouble...
I'm in the way of building a FreeBSD Samba server with LDAP support.
So far, everything works great except password synchronization.
It is the only thing I need left to do before my server goes into production, so I'm really looking for help.
What I need is to be able to synchronize the Windows passwords with the Unix passwords. All passwords are stored in LDAP (ntPassword, lmPassword, userPassword), so there're no real Unix accounts (I use pam_ldap+nss_ldap).
I read a lot of docs, tried a lot of scripts (ldapsync, ldapchpasswd...) but I cannot make it work.
First, I think "passwd program" is never launched, and second, I doubt those scripts work well with FreeBSD and crypted passwords.
If there's anyone out there willing to help, I'd really appreciate, I'm out of ideas...
Thanks.
Antoine
In samba 3.0.0 (if you use it) you have 'ldap password sync = yes' to sync when SMB's passwords change.
For the reverse, I'm still trying without any results yet.
My current tries are about pam_smbpass.so module, but it seems to be more difficult than i'd expect.
In my oppinion, when using ldap password sync, the passord program isn't used any more.
I hope you'll have more chance than me.
