Can you reccomend appropriate log levels for slapd/smbd? I've always
...
statement like:
access to dn.subtree="dc=j9starr,dc=net"
    by group="cnReplicator,ou=Group,dc=j9starr,dc=net"
    by * read
doesn't work, adding regexp to it won't help to resolve this problem. Did you check that it works without group with a simple 'by dn='? Ok, sorry... I've got in a lecture mood. It's just too confusing to see what exactly you do and what kind of problems you encounter.

Actually, I think I am on to something. Putting the ACL's under a microscope lead to the revelation of some differences in group structure from what I am using and those previously reccomended by Buchan Milne.

Mine:

[root@enigma 0 root]$ smbldap-groupshow 'Domain Controllers'
dn: cn=Domain Controllers,ou=Group,dc=j9starr,dc=net
objectClass: posixGroup,sambaGroupMapping
cn: Domain Controllers
sambaGroupType: 2
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-2147030705-2499090161-3119200592-516
gidNumber: 516
displayName: Domain Controllers
memberUid: cn=enigma,ou=Hosts,dc=j9starr,dc=net

His:

dn: cn=Domain
Controllers,ou=Group,dc=ranger,dc=dnsalias,dc=com
objectClass: groupOfNames
objectClass: top
cn: Domain Controllers
member:
cn=kiowa.ranger.dnsalias.com,ou=Hosts,dc=ranger,dc=dnsalias,dc=com
member:
cn=comanche.ranger.dnsalias.com,ou=Hosts,dc=ranger,dc=dnsalias,dc=com

Now I don't know how slapd deals with groups but if it specifically needs groupOfNames, then I may have a problem. I'll see if I can manipulate the structure to include groupOfNames. Who knows, I might be able to do it without redunancy.
