I have a master ldap tree for my PDC, likewise my BDC also having a slave ldap tree, do i need to replicate the master ldap to the slave ldap? In a word, Yes. If you are using openldap you will find plenty of documentation on the Internet about how to do this. 2. How about the sid number??? does PDC sid have to be similar to the BDC sid??? what is sid? what does is working for??? dun understand... pls enlighten.. thanks.. The PDC and the BDC have the same SID number. Usually each computer / users has a unique SID. However domain controllers are a unique case. You can import the SID into a BDC using the 'net rpc getsid DOMAINNAME' command. i configured a BDC, but, it ends up throwing me an error when i a trying to join the domain no mapping between account names and security ids pls guide me for troubleshooting.. thanks.. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Your best bet to accomplish a failover for domain authentication is to set-up an LDAP master server, and then create slave-servers for fail over. Advantages are that you can have many slave servers through out your network.If your master fails the clients will search for the nearest slave server to authenticate It wouldn't be a 100% fail over, as the clients can't join the domain to the BDC; they can only join the domain to the PDC. -- Tomek -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
