[FIXED] Problem with "CentOS 5.x Samba Domain Controller With LDAP Backend"

Hi there !

For my first post, I will post an issue... I followed this howto: http://www.howtoforge.com/centos-5.x-samba-domain-controller-with-ldap-backend

However, when starting the samba server. it crashes. Here is the log:

Code:

I searched the web for that errore 420, but I have not found any solution.
If you need, I can post my conf files, but I really followed the howto... So you won't learn many things...

Hope someone will be able to help as I really need it. Thank you !

 

Fixed !

I'll answer my question myself (I finally got smb running).

I used the samba package, as described in the howto. However, there is now a samba3x package in CentOS 5.5. So you have to erase samba package and its related and install samba3x.

Then, follow the howto and it works ! Hope this will help.
