[K12OSN] SMBLDAP script with Fedora Core 4? (dahopkins at comcast.net)

[dahopkins at comcast.net]

Matt,

Thanks, late last night I caught the _ vs - change ... but ..... the installer now completes (I also removed the k12ltsp rpm requirement) and ... samba will not start.  I am getting an error as shown below.  I am now officially at wits end.  I need to get this server online and working to replace the existing LDAP server (which is samba 2.x based).  The new system is dual opteron (64 bit) and I am discovering that this may not be such a good thing. ;)

I am clueless on what is happening at this point.  I went through the detailed instructions (did not use the sbmldap-installer) and end up at the same point with the same errors.

I am now up to the point of manually building samba from source, and don't know what directories to use (it appears that the rpm's do not use the default directories).

Aaaarrrrrgghhhh!!!!!  I have 36 hours before I have to leave for a few weeks (medical issue) and this?  It is looking like August is going to be very, very rough.  Then again, perhaps I will magically find the solution 'real soon' (like installing a 32-bit version of Fedora core 4 on my opteron system)

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
