I am still trying to troubleshoot my problem of not being able to join computers to the domain.
I have found this comment by John Terpstra:- >Newsgroups: linux.samba >From: John H Terpstra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Find messages by this author >Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2004 00:00:17 +0100 >Curtis, >Do not set the UID of Administrator to 0, it will break winbind use. >Instead, use the account root in LDAP, set UID=0, GID=0, RID=500 >With these setting winbind should be happy. >Also, add the '-a' option where appropriate, so you create in LDAP both >Posix and SambaSamAccounts. You must create both entries in one operation. >- John T. Two questions:- 1. Am I right to have the following line in smb.conf? add machine script = /var/lib/samba/sbin/smbldap-useradd.pl -a -w '%m' Samba by Example omits the -a and has '%u'. (Example 6.4) 2. Samba by Example 6.3.5.10 recommends setting uid=0 for the Administrator account:- ./smbldap-usermod.pl -u 0 Adminstrator which contradicts John's advice above. Could uid=0 be causing my problem? What uid should Administrator have? Back to the problem of not being able to join the domain ... John says that -a and -w must be used together so that both entries are created in one operation, however, even having done this, I see the following in slapd.log:- Nov 23 10:46:22 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3686 op=1 ADD dn="UID=GARYB-1000$,OU=PEOPLE,DC=COMMTECHGROUP,DC=CO.UK" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3686 op=1 RESULT tag=105 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3686 op=2 UNBIND Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=-1 fd=43 closed Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=-1 fd=42 closed Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=-1 fd=41 closed Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3682 op=5 SRCH base="ou=People,dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=1 filter="(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=garyb-1000$))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3682 op=5 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=12 SRCH base="ou=Groups,dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=2 filter="(&(objectClass=sambaGroupMapping)(gidNumber=553))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=12 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=13 SRCH base="dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=2 filter="(&(&(uid=garyb-1000$)(objectClass=sambaSamAccount))(objectClass=sambaSamAccount))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=13 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=14 SRCH base="dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=2 filter="(&(sambaSID=S-1-5-21-1504740027-1884281049-541626052-3100)(objectClass=sambaSamAccount))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=14 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=15 SRCH base="dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=2 filter="(&(uid=garyb-1000$)(objectClass=sambaSamAccount))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=15 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=16 SRCH base="dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=2 filter="(&(sambaSID=S-1-5-21-1504740027-1884281049-541626052-3100)(|(objectClass=sambaIdmapEntry)(objectClass=sambaSidEntry)))" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=16 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=17 ADD dn="UID=GARYB-1000$,OU=PEOPLE,DC=COMMTECHGROUP,DC=CO.UK" Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3681 op=17 RESULT tag=105 err=68 text= Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=-1 fd=39 closed Nov 23 10:46:23 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=-1 fd=40 closed Nov 23 10:46:27 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3659 op=86 SRCH base="ou=People,dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=1 filter="(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uidNumber=1034))" Nov 23 10:46:27 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3659 op=86 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 text= Nov 23 10:46:27 linux-server slapd[20034]: conn=3659 op=87 SRCH base="ou=People,dc=commtechgroup,dc=co.uk" scope=1 filter="(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uidNumber=1034))" which looks like it's doing 2 ADDs for UID=GARYB-1000$ and the second one fails with tag=105 err=68, which I have found from another source to mean "attempt to add duplicate object". Can anyone throw any light on what's going on here and how I should proceed, please? Some help would be greatly appreciated.
