Hello,

Help!!  I'm struggling with ldapsam.

I'm trying to configure Samba to use our LDAP directory (Sun's directory server) for the storage of Samba user accounts. It already stores our unix system accounts. I have successfully imported the schema file into our directory server and have compiled samba with the "--prefix=/opt/btifs/samba --with-ldapsam" options. I did not notice any errors during compile.

When I go to start Samba (smbd -D), the daemon dies quickly and this error is written to the log:

 smbd version 3.0.14a started.

 Loading ldapsam_compat failed!

Here is my smb.conf file:

[global]
       workgroup = BTIWG1
       netbios name = FS1V
       encrypt passwords = Yes
       allow trusted domains = No
       log level = 1
       guest account = nobody
       map to guest = Bad User
#       passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://ce.btinet.net
#       ldap admin dn = cn=Directory Manager
#       ldap suffix = ou=People,o=tildebob.com,o=usergroups


[btifs]
       path = /opt/btifs
       read only = No
       browseable = No
       hosts allow =  . . .
       hosts deny = ALL
       guest ok = no

Do I need to install some client libraries for this to work? Or did the compilation not work as expected?
Any hints or suggestions would be a great help!

Thanks,
