Hi, I'm sorry that I'm new to LDAP. We used to use tdbsam as the passdb backend. I wish I had time to learn more about LDAP but I need to finish this in these few days. I just followed the steps from Samba guide chapter 5 and got stucked at the point of joining domain. I also use ldapsearch -x uid=root and see the root account's information. If this is not the right way, would you tell me how to check it and correct it? I swear I will study LDAP in depth after I get through this.
And I can use the root account/password to access the share folders of the server without joining the domain. Thanks. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Tauno Williams Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2007 7:22 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Samba] samba3+openldap:Problem during the LDAP search > But now another problem happened: when I tried to join a Winxp to the > domain, after I enter the root account and password, a popup said > "logon failure:unknown user name or bad password". > I can see root account using slapcat. Why are you using slapcat to see if there is a root account in the Dit?

Everything with the tdbsam is pretty much automated for you; to work with an LDAP SAM you need more "glue" and to get that to work you need a working understanding of the different layers.
