Re: [Samba] Linux (specially Fedora 8), issues with ldap and samba services starting up at boot time

Mon, 04 Feb 2008 12:17:34 -0800

no sure why it doesn't work on boot. if you're using a redhat based distro, have you tried putting your manual commands in /etc/rc.d/rc.local? should work that way.

Hey Adam,
Well, I have my Samba LDAP stuff within an organizational unit on purpose - but do you think that would cause an issue? Remember, when I start it manually, it causes no issues at all. It's only when the service is set to start at boot time.

this is what mine looks like:

 passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://gomer.mdah.state.ms.us
 ldap suffix = dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us
 ldap machine suffix = ou=People
 ldap user suffix = ou=People
 ldap group suffix = ou=Group
 ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap
 ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us

so i think your ldap suffix = line is wrong.

Hey there, thanks for the response! Here is that same section out of my smb.conf. 

passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://example.com:389
ldap admin dn = cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com
ldap suffix = ou=samba,dc=example,dc=com
ldap user suffix = ou=users
ldap machine suffix = ou=computers
ldap group suffix = ou=groups
The main difference between mine, and your working config, is that I specify port 389 in my passdb backend paramater. Also, my admin dn isn't within the same part of the tree that the samba stuff is in. I have the samba users/machines/groups within ou=samba. Do you think this could cause an issue? 

BTW, I'm using OpenLDAP.

    Hey guys,
For some reason, when I enable smb and nmb to start at boot time... I 
    get error messages in my log.smbd.

    [2008/02/01 18:47:00, 1] lib/smbldap.c:another_ldap_try(1153)
    Connection to LDAP server failed for the 1 try!

    Connection to LDAP server failed for the 2 try!
From this you'd think that either I hadn't stored the right password 
    (via smbpasswd -w), or the LDAP server is somehow unreachable. But
    that
isn't the case. And when I start both services manually, after boot, everything works great. Was curious if anyone else has run into this 
    problem. Granted, I am a lot more familiar with BSD variants than
    I am
    Linux... so I may be missing something obvious.
