I'm setting up a PDC using samba 3.0.14a-2 on fedora 4 with Openldap
2.2.23 to authenticate. Authentication via ldap through the various
linux service is working (login, ssh, etc.) via nss. Thus I know that
slapd is running and working properly. I used smbldap-tools to populate
and add test users/groups to the directory, and they worked just fine.
But samba, despite being configured correctly, as far as I can tell,
cannot even contact LDAP. slapd is running on the loopback interface
and logging everything including packets sent. I know from the openldap
logs that the samba server NEVER contacts the ldap server despite having
the correct URI (I can see it in the smbd.log file)
Here is the error I'm getting in the logfile...

Here is my smb.conf with comments and share definitions removed

I have been working on this for three days now, and I am about to give
up home and move away from ldap. But I don't want to. Any help is
greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
