10 A sample schema file (samba.schema) has been included for use
11 with OpenLDAP 2.0.x. The OIDs used in this file are owned by
12 the Samba team and generated from its own Enterprise number
13 of 7165 (as issued by IANA).
15 Copy the samba.schema file into your /etc/openldap/schema directory,
16 and add an include for it in the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file.
17 Note that samba.schema relies upon the uid and uidNumber attributes
18 from the RFC2307 schema (i.e. nis.schema)
20 If you choose to import /etc/passwd, nis, or nisplus tables
21 into ldap, you can use migration tools provided by PADL Software
24 http://www.padl.com/tools.html
26 It is not a requirement that a user's /etc/passwd account
27 is stored in LDAP for the samba.schema file to work (although
28 the whole point of storing smbpasswd in LDAP is to have a
29 single location for user accounts, right?)
31 The padl tools will leave you with LDIF files which you can import
32 into OpenLDAP. Before you can import them, you need to include
33 nis.schema and cosine.schema in your slapd.conf file.
35 You must restart the LDAP server for these new included schema files
41 The schema file has not been updated for the sambaSamAccount
48 The schema file has not been updated for the sambaSamAccount
55 This is a collection of perl scripts (wrapped around the standard
56 OpenLDAP command line tools) for managing Samba and posix accounts
57 in an LDAP directory. See the README file included with the scripts
63 For more information on these scripts, see
65 http://www.mami.net/univr/tng-ldap/howto/
68 The ldapsync.pl script requires a small command (smbencrypt)
69 for generating LanMan and NT password hashes which
70 can be found at ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/contributed/
