I have setup a SAMBA + OPENLDAP server following Samba-3 By Example, but I have run into several problems. All the tests described in the Chapter 6 such as pdbedit -Lv, slapcat, and ldapsearch -x -b give the desired results. But, getent can't read passwd or group information from ldap backend. I have done my best to solve the problem, but it just doesn't work. I have compiled the nss_ldap from Idealx and configured the /etc/ldap.conf as well as nsswitch.conf according to the instructions, but without any success.
May someone please point me, how to troubleshoot this issue?
Thank you.

Have you configured pam and nss?

Yes. I have followed the instructions from the book, and I have also tried to use authconfig as it is RedHat AS 3.
Thank you.

I'm a newbie to Samba (RHAS3, RH Samba samba-3.0.7-1.3E), but an old hand
with Openldap. Just configured a working Samba PDC for XP/2000 clients and
I'm pleased as punch :) Openldap 2.2.20. It wasn't easy, i didn't know
what to expect at each turn and there's masses of new stuff to learn,
though the Samba native utilities are phantastik, IDEALX's Perl scripts
don't work for me - I write my own (shell, awk) scripts that call the
Samba utilities. Anyway:

My own experience with RHAS3 is, that any other nss_ldap solution than Red
Hat's own rpm does not work (though one RHAS3 user on the Padl nss_ldap
mailing list has got the latest nss_ldap source to work). Why are you
using IDEALX source and not Padl anyway?

1: Red Hat's authconfig for Red Hat's Openldap deprecated standard version
(2.0.27) is poison: it ruins /etc/pam.conf and nsswitch.conf is poison -
it ruins both. You have to knuckle down and get used to configuring both
pam_ldap and nss_ldap by hand; this can take time;

2: pam_ldap should not be necessary for Samba - it seems to use 100% nss
for authentication.

My advice is, to go back to Red Hat's nss_ldap rpm, learn to configure
/etc/ldap.conf and nsswitch.conf by hand and get off the Red Hat Openldap
versions (including 2.1.22). The only stable OL versions are 2.2.17 and
upward, though configuring them with the requisite, patched BDB 4.2.52
will cost you both time and sweat .(

Heck, I'd be ecstatic if I could just get a schema file patch for
posixGroups that appropriately support dn syntax.
