We also removed the support foir multiple passdb backends in latest versions of samba IIRC, so passdb backend should never list more than 1 backend. -- Simo Sorce [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Samba Team http://www.samba.org -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Smbfs is deprecated anyway and nobody supports it in the kernel anymore, switch to cifs vfs.

There is a note in the man pages that say: NOTE In order to use authentication against ldap servers you may need to provide a DN and a password. To avoid exposing the password in plain text in the configuration file we store it into a security store. The "net idmap " command is used to store a secret for the DN specified in a specific idmap domain.

A core dump is definitively an issue, I will try to reproduce and fix it today on my train trip or at worst tomorrow.

The SMB protocol dialects and the authentication protocols are somewhat orthogonal. The mapping you are trying to make simply does not make sense.
