SAMBA and ldap

[veggis]

Someone know what to do with this error


Global symbol "$SID" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl line 350


and how to add sudo user to ldap-users? Because now I cant log in as root or sudo users only as ldap users, and not ldap admin.......


regards

Hmm, playing with authentication has its problems.

You would need to boot into single user mode to get into your system and fix things.

Edited: Was thinking of creating LDAP user with uidNumber 0 and using it as fake root but then remembered that the PAM would be having pam_succeed >500 restriction and would disallow login :(

same problem :(


when I am trying

sudo perl /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl
while
Samba - Primary Domain Controler


the error

qutaibah@ubuntuserver:~$ sudo perl /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl
Global symbol "$SID" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl line 350.
Execution of /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

Did you try what the configure.pl script says just above the 350 line:
# Put your own SID. To obtain this number do: \"net getlocalsid\".
# If not defined, parameter is taking from \"net getlocalsid\" return

Are you able to run 'net getlocalsid' command ?

If yes, then maybe you can simply change line 350 as

SID=\"<SID-returned-by-getlocalsid>\"

I am also having the same problem as above, though I have populated the SID field with the output from:



sudo net getlocalsid

and it still gives me this:


Global symbol "$SID" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl line 350.
Execution of /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl aborted due to compilation errors.


Trying to get samba, openldap, and phpldapadmin to run together for a document server.

On my system, though I didn't run the script till the end, but just to find out the errors, ran it as 'perl configure.pl'

Fixed the following to get it working

## On lines 314 and 315, added a \ before the $ in the end

# \$Source: /opt/cvs/samba/smbldap-tools/configure.pl,v \$

# \$Id: configure.pl 26 2010-11-15 14:28:01Z mm1 \$

## On lines 527 and 532, added \ before the "
# Allows not to use smbpasswd (if with_smbpasswd=\"0\" in smbldap.conf) but

# Allows not to use slappasswd (if with_slappasswd=\"0\" in smbldap.conf)

That should work I guess.

hello everybody

I have the same problem with configure.pl from smbldap-tools.I have tried all solution that I find on the web but no result.
I still have this message
"
Global symbol "$SID" requires explicit package name at /usr/share/doc/smbldap-tools/configure.pl line 350
did someone find soltuion?
thanks

Final solution is:


sudo net getlocalsid
Substitute with given SID (for e.g. SID for domain DC0 is: S-1-5-21-1038398530-1857452570-2395030447) $SID
Do corrections as proposed above:

## On lines 314 and 315, added a \ before the $ in the end
# \$Source: /opt/cvs/samba/smbldap-tools/configure.pl,v \$
# \$Id: configure.pl 26 2010-11-15 14:28:01Z mm1 \$

## On lines 527 and 532, added \ before the "
# Allows not to use smbpasswd (if with_smbpasswd=\"0\" in smbldap.conf) but
# Allows not to use slappasswd (if with_slappasswd=\"0\" in smbldap.conf)


In my case (Ubuntu server 11.10) in p.3 last two lines were correct already.

NB Don't do any comments around lines mentioned above with in the configure.pl - it will take to another mistake(s).
