Hi,
I got the following setup.
I got a openLDAP server. This server is the master server for LDAP functions. I named this ldapsrv.
I got a samba server with openLDAP install on it as well. This LDAP server is the slave to ldapsrv. I named this sambasrv.
The sambasrv currently have the following setup in /etc/smb.conf:-
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ldapsrv.domain
idmap backend = ldap://ldapsrv.domain
add user script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -a -m '%u'
delete user script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-userdel.pl '%u'
add group script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-groupadd.pl -p '%g'
delete group script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-groupdel.pl '%g'
add user to group script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -m '%u' '%g'
delete user from group script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-groupmod.pl -x '%u' '%g'
set primary group script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-usermod.pl -g '%g' '%u'
add machine script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -w '%u'
shutdown script = /var/lib/samba/scripts/shutdown.sh
I want to use sambasrv's openldap directory to read off the passwords instead of reading it off the network from ldapsrv. Note that all changes have to be done on ldapsrv in order to be propogated to sambasrv. Will I have any issues if I shift the 'passdb backend' and 'idmap backend' to point to ldapsrv?
Can i do the above with the smbldap_conf.pm file untouched? The smbldap_conf.pm files currently point to ldapsrv as the changes will need to be done on it.
The reason I asked is that during clients authentication or connecting to the sambasrv, will it modify the ldap entries since smb.conf will point to sambasrv which is the slave LDAP. I think all changes need to start from ldapsrv.
Any feedback will be great.
Thanks.
