We have found that a line in /etc/ldap.conf is doing this query :)

pam_filter    objectclass=posixAccount

we have removed this line and we now see no queries! we have went 24hrs with no LDAP crash fingers crossed?

Any news why adding ldapsam:trusted = yes silently crashed smbd with version 3.0.13 as soon as i start smbd??

regards

Hi all,

We have samba 3.0.11 installed on suse 9.2, we are in the middle of a project of rolling out samba to about 15,000 users in our university, samba is configured to auth via LDAP (Sun One Directory Server 5.2),

For some reason samba is doing this query...

[13/Apr/2005:10:41:04 +0100] conn=9823 op=2 msgId=3 - SRCH
base="dc=sunderland,dc=ac,dc=uk" scope=2

First, that's not Samba directly, that is nss_ldap.  Some bright bit of
code is doing 'getent passwd' or the equivalent.   Now, this may be
triggered by Samba, and if your LDAP server is internally consistent
(all the things Samba cares about are in ldap), then you should try
setting 'ldapsam:trusted = yes' in your smb.conf.  This is meant to be
better with current Samba3 over 3.0.11, but that version does include an
older version of the code.
