[Samba] LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT upon new user creation in s4/OpenLDAP
Hi all, for some weeks now I am trying to set up Samba4 (alpha9) with an OpenLDAP 2.4.17 backend as an AD PDC for my XP/7 clients. It was working for some time with Samba's integrated LDAP facility, however I could not figure out how to use this database e.g. to authenticate my IMAP users against (bind-dn, port etc.). OpenLDAP was compiled from source using --enable-modules=yes and --enable-overlays=yes. Provisioning samba using the command line setup/provision --ldap-backend-type=openldap --slapd-path=/usr/sbin/slapd --username=samba-admin --realm=localdomain --domain=Heimnetz --server-role='domain controller' --adminpass=somepass ran through, although there were errors about slapd (id2entry.bdb not found, NT_STATUS_UNEXPECTED_NETWORK_ERROR, slapd unable to start). Afterwards, slapd and samba start fine, I can join machines to the domain Heimnetz (DNS is also working properly), login using the administrator account and have a look at the AD via dsa.msc. Was is NOT working is the creation of new users. Doing that in dsa.msc failes with an error message about password policies, but this is probably not yet implemented, right? Going the howto-way, source-dir/setup/newuser blah prompts for a password, displays messages about skipping the loading of schema, naming context details and domain details, and then failes with the following error message: _ldb.LdbError: (32, 'objectclass: Cannot add CN=blah,CN=Users,DC=localdomain, parent does not exist!') Parsing the logs of slapd I see that newuser performs several searches in the directory that slapd all answers with err=32 (LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT), although in phpLDAPadmin I can see that the requested objects exist, including CN=Users,DC=localdomain with 19 entries after a fresh provisioning. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Eric -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba

Volker Hello Volker, thanks for the quick reply. Just took the log you requested; it's available at http://speedshare.org/download.php?id=DFF4FCB13 (~63 kB gzipped). The log starts at the first line after pressing the OK button in XP's login dialog. I have inserted a comment at the position of the delay; it's at line 1797. Then I cut off the rest starting at the point when the profile is loaded (after ntuser.*). Perhaps this delay is a very normal thing in Samba/NT4-style domains. I can only compare it with my university's Win2k3 domain where there is no delay at all between pressing OK and the loading your personal settings box.

[Samba] Short delay when logging in an XP client to a Samba PDC
Hello everyone, I'm using Samba 3.0.30 as PDC in my home-LAN, the clients are all XP Pro SP2. Everything is working as it should, although I notice an annoying and quite random login delay of 1-5 seconds for all user-machine combinations. The log lines below (log-level 2) are for example what I got about an hour ago: [2009/03/20 18:43:45, 3] smbd/open.c:open_file(240) Tester opened file Tester/ntuser.ini read=Yes write=No (numopen=2) [2009/03/20 18:43:49, 3] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(228) Tester closed file Tester/ntuser.dat (numopen=1) The delay is always between opening and closing ntuser.ini and ntuser.dat. These two files are around 2MB together and should not cause a four second delay on my 100MBit link. I guess there is some problematic setting in the registry hive that causes that delay. Has anyone around here ever noticed that problem? I know a few seconds are no big deal, but I'm a perfectionist anyway. :) Greets, Eric -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
