Well, not necessarily novel if I reword my question as "Would I still have to

This is probably an insane question, but I'm going to ask it anyway...
Does Samba4's embedded LDAP server also support being used as an ordinary
(*nix-style) LDAP authentication server, at least for simple, basic use cases?
Or is it necessary to have the OpenLDAP backend running to handle normal
I've been joking for years about the "6 R's" of Microsoft
voodoo problem solving:
1)Retry the thing that didn't work
2)close and Restart the program that isn't working
3)Reboot
4)Reconfigure the program in case the configuration mysteriously changed
or got "corrupted" and try again
5)Reinstal
I'm having a bizarre problem doing authentication via winbind against a
Windows 2003 server.
Aside from changing the hostname information, etc. as appropriate for
krb5.conf and smb.conf, the configuration I'm using is one that I copied from

I'm seeing the same problem on 3 different Samba versions (on two different
distributions) as well. I poked around the HOWTO's and such but
so far haven't found anything to indicate what the problem might be.

It seems as though if I try to run the plain "net rpc share (hostname)"
command to enumerate (hostname)'s shares that it doesn't work. My best guess
is that net is insisting on seeing a sub
I'd be interested in finding out whatever information comes of your query as
well - I think I'm running into the same limitations.
In short, I've added a Samba file sharing server to an existing
"ActiveDirectory" domain. It seems to work fine, except that the Windows
administrator there is com
Setting up the initial connection to ADS was so easy...but now I'm stuck.
I'm trying to show off how seamlessly Samba integrates into an existing
Windows "Active Directory" domain, but permissions issues are making this
look much more complicated than it ought to be.
