The smbpasswd Program Parameter
The following is the new parameter for the smbpasswd program:
smbpasswd -w The new parameter, -w, has been added to the
smbpasswd program to change the ldap admin
password information.
ldap group suffix Specifies the base of the directory tree where
you want to add groups information. If you do
not specify this parameter, HP CIFS Server
uses the value of ldap suffix instead. For
example, ldap group suffix =
“ou=Groups”.
ldap filter Specifies the RPC 2254 compliant LDAP
search filter. The default is to match the login
name with the uid attribute for all entries
matching the sambaAccount objectclass. For
example, ldap filter =
(&(uid=%u)(objectclass=sambaAccount)).
ldap admin dn Specifies the user Distinguished Name (DN)
used by the HP CIFS Server to connect to the
LDAP directory server when retrieving user
account information. The ldap admin dn is
used in conjunction with the admin dn
password stored in the
/var/opt/samba/private/secrets.tdb file.
For example, ldap admin dn = “cn =
directory manager”.
ldap ssl Specifies the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
support. The HP CIFS Server does not
support the ldap ssl = start tls option.
Specifies Yes to enable this feature if your
directory server uses SSL for LDAP, and No
to disable SSL. By default, this parameter is
set to No.
