[Fedora-directory-devel] New blockers for Samba4/FDS testing

While I'm past the installation-related blockers, I have a new
challenge:

In an attempt to make Samba4's test environment as reproducible as
possible, and to avoid issues with root privilages as low ports, Samba4
operates a virtual network known as 'socket_wrapper'.  

This wrapper is a #define macro based system, which overloads all socket
calls, and redirects them to a series of unix domain sockets.

The challenge I have is that our testsuite relies on this, but Fedora DS
does not support it.  As such, attempts to connect to localhost:3389
(for example) are redirected to a local unix domain socket, where of
course Fedora DS is not listening.

For OpenLDAP, we work around this by using ldapi://, which is unmolested
by socket_wrapper.  

Has there been any progress on
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=219573

I would rather not waste time constructing proxies in/out of
socket_wrapper if I don't need to.

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
