I've posted a couple of messages recently about this issue. I'm getting the exact same error message upon trying to join the domain as you are. If you could, please check your /var/log/messages for slapd errors that say something about "Duplicate entries." You can check my recent post "Bug in LDAP Stuff?" for the details, but it seems to me that Samba is "pre-filtering" the LDAP search for the user you're (we're) trying to use to join the domain. It's finding all the users instead of just the one. (It's not limiting to the one user.) As someone replied to me, the latest version of Samba no longer needs the "ldap filter" configuration setting. I think this is too bad, because it looks like the relevant line in the IDEALX Howto -- which is commented out in the docs -- does *EXACTLY* what I think needs to be done. Like I'm implying here, I think this is a bug in the Samba code. I guess this means I ought to enter a bug in Samba's bugzilla?
