7OpenLDAP 2.x
8------------

10A sample schema file (samba.schema) has been included for use
11with OpenLDAP 2.0.x. The OIDs used in this file are owned by
12the Samba team and generated from its own Enterprise number
13of 7165 (as issued by IANA).
14
15Copy the samba.schema file into your /etc/openldap/schema directory,
16and add an include for it in the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file.
17Note that samba.schema relies upon the uid and uidNumber attributes
18from the RFC2307 schema (i.e. nis.schema)
19
20If you choose to import /etc/passwd, nis, or nisplus tables
21into ldap, you can use migration tools provided by PADL Software
22which are located at
23
24 http://www.padl.com/tools.html
25
26It is not a requirement that a user's /etc/passwd account
27is stored in LDAP for the samba.schema file to work (although
28the whole point of storing smbpasswd in LDAP is to have a
29single location for user accounts, right?)
30
31The padl tools will leave you with LDIF files which you can import
32into OpenLDAP. Before you can import them, you need to include
33nis.schema and cosine.schema in your slapd.conf file.
34
35You must restart the LDAP server for these new included schema files
36to become active.
