| Summary | 0009934: LDAP schema samba.schema provided by samba package does not have .ldif counterpart | ||||
| Description | OpenLDAP comes with a bunch of schemas by default. They can be found in /etc/openldap/schema. All schemas come in two formats: legacy .schema format and modern .ldif format. The legacy .schema formats belong to the old slapd.conf configuration format. They can be converted to .ldif so they can be imported to the LDAP server using ldapadd The samba packages also provides a schema called samba.schema, on installation it puts it in the /etc/openldap/schema folder. However, it does not have an .ldif counterpart, making it not practical to use. The versions are not compatible with each other. Debian provides a simple tool schema2ldif that can convert the format. Converting it allows the schema to be imported. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Install openldap-server and samba 2. Go to /etc/openldap/schema folder 3. Observe all schemas come in pairs of a .schema and .ldif file, except samba.schema | ||||
