Extending the Samba Subschema into Your Directory Server
You now need to extend the Directory Server schema with the Samba subschema from the HP CIFS Server
into your Directory Server. Ensure that you have configured your LDAP directory and LDAP-UX Client Services,
and migrated your data to the LDAP directory before extending the schema.
Set the passwd backend parameter to ldapsam:ldap://<ldap server name>.
Samba Subschema Differences Between HP CIFS Server Versions
New HP CIFS Server releases sometimes extend the attributes for use but update are backwards compatible
with older versions of LDAP schemas.
Procedures to Extend the Samba Subschema into Your Directory
Use the following steps to extend the Samba subschema /opt/samba/LDAP3/98samba3.ldif in HP
CIFS Server A.02.* into the Directory Server:
1. Run the ftp commands to get the /opt/samba/LDAP3/98samba3.ldif file from the HP CIFS Server
and place it in the Directory Server:
For example, the following commands copy /opt/samba/LDAP3/98samba3.ldif file from the HP
CIFS Server to the
/var/opt/netscape/servers/sldapd-hostA.hp.com/config/schema/98samba3.ldif
file in the Directory Server, hostA.hp.com:
cd /opt/samba/LDAP3
ftp hostA.org.hp.com
user root
root passwd
cd /var/opt/netscape/servers/sldapd-hostA.hp.com/config/schema
put 98samba3.ldif
quit
2. Login to your Directory Server and restart the daemon, slapd. This is to ensure that the
sambaSamAccount subschema is recognized by the LDAP directory.
$ /var/opt/netscape/servers/slapd-<server name>/restart-slapd
For example:
$ /var/opt/netscape/servers/slapd-hostA.hp.com/restart-slapd
3. Use the following ldapsearch command to verify that you have updated the schema in the Directory
Server with the Samba subschema:
$ /opt/ldapux/bin/ldapsearch -T -b "cn=schema" -s base \
"(objectclass=*)"|grep -i samb
You need to ensure that the output displays the following sambaSamAccount objectclass when you
run the ldapsearch command:
objectClasses: ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.7165.2.2.6 NAME 'sambaSamAccount'
DESC 'Samba 3.0 Auxilary SAM Account' STRUCTURAL MUST ( uid $ sambaSID )
