CIFS Sever and LDAP support

[Alex Lavrov.]

Hello,
I'm trying to install CIFS server on my 11i box, but it requires LDAP to be installed. Currently we don't use LDAP, so there is no LDAP libraries on the machine. Is there an way to install and run CIFS server without LDAP? I installed CIFS anyway, but ofcourse it fails to start because libldap.sl is not present.

thanx.

Alex,
having scanned through

http://docs.hp.com/en/5523/wp-SettingUpSambainanLDAPEnvironment.pdf

seems to me you have to have the LDAP libs installed to run the server with LDAP support.
Please let us know if somebody else finds a way around!!

Look at these install intructions for the Technology Preview - you need the LDAP client:

That's what I thought ... :(

Thanx for the help!

Hope is not lost.

All you need to do to get CIFS to install is to install the LDAP/UX client.

You don't actually have to use it.

Yep, that's what I did.

Thanx.
