[Samba] LDAP items that might help for How-to
Might want to include the following command in LDAP config incase LDAP doesn't start. slapd -u ldap -g ldap -d -1 This command pointed out that I hadn't copied my samba.schema to the /etc/openldap/schema directory. Might want to put that in the doc before you start LDAP. A newbie like me might pass over that little detail while following the instructions... Kevin B.

Hi, I think this is taken care of with syslog, we added loglevel 256 to slapd.conf, so a simple tail -f logfile.log will show the problems. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director.

Thanks for the input but on this occassion it seems I need to add more reference to scanning the logs. I'll think about the best way to tackle that. - John T. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

seems I need to add more reference to scanning the logs. I'll think about

Yes, gavin is correct. However, it's not just a question of scanning the
logs, but also interpreting them correctly.
I run Red Hat RHAS. Mostly /etc/rc.d/init.d/ldap (my own implementation)
will let you see what goes on at daemon startup. But if it doesn't (which
can happen quite a lot), it is often useful to start up the daemon by hand
at the CLI, using the command line in the ldap script. The debug level can
then be configured in the CLI command.
Like in my RH startup script I have:
daemon ${slapd} -u ldap -h ldap://tru.leerlingen/ ldaps://tru.leerlingen/
ldapi://%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Fvar%2Fslapd%2Fldapi/x-mod=0777 $OPTIONS
$SLAPD_OPTIONS
This presupposes multiple xterm windows open, ALT from the one to the other..
service ldap stop
At the CLI I substitute.
'slapd -u ldap -d 256 -h ldap://whatever.host/ ldaps://whatever.host/
ldapi://%2Fusr%2Flocal%2Fvar%2Fslapd%2Fldapi/x-mod=0777'
Change the -d bit to whatever suits.
Leave out the ldapi bit, if you don't understand or use it.
Leave out the ldaps bit, if you don't understand or use it.
If there are any slapd.conf faults or whatever, the CLI startup line will
detail them.

this way, before I left Exim for Postfix.
