This probably isn't an option if you've already deployed OpenLDAP, but 
Novell's eDirectory has an addon called Identity Manager which does this 
kind synchronization to AD (and many, many other applications) very 
smoothly. Yes it's commercial, but it is relatively inexpensive and it's 
the best damn directory out there in my opinion if you're going to be 
serious about this.

[Samba] Samba LDAP gidNumber=-1 queries?

2006-03-15 Thread Justin Grote

Greetings,

using samba-3.0.20b.

I've been doing some packet traces of Samba's LDAP queries, and I notice 
that it does a lot of queries on various idmaps for gidnumber=-1 before 
it performs functions. What happens if this object is present in the 
directory? Does it disable functionality? It'd be good to know if it 
provides a system-wide disable feature.


Thanks.
