I'm trying to configure samba 3.0.3 from FC2 with an LDAP backend as a domain controller. I'm using smbldap-tools from idealx.org. From what I've read, I need to configure the domain SID in /etc/smbldap-tools/smbldap.conf. But in order to generate the SID, I need to be running samba on the domain controller already.
No. The "net getlocalsid" command doesn't need a running samba server. So the solution is:
1) Start an empty ldap server, don't start smbd/nmbd 2) smbpasswd -w ldappassword 3) net getlocalsid - this should write the SID into ldap 4) adjust the SID in the smbldap scripts 5) populate ldap 6) start the SAMBA servers
