Subject: [suse-sles-e] SLES9 SP3 - Strange OpenLDAP behavior w/o Samba


Hi

I've newly installed a System with SLES9 and SP3 as well as all
relevant Update Packs. I configured OpenLDAP, PAM and Samba to act as
PDC. So far so good.
First, OpenLDAP starts without any error. Samba is starting cleanly
from time to time with sporadic errors about a missing Guest account.
I've hunted this problem down to LDAP because the Guest Account is
defined in LDAP. But that is not the main problem. The real thing that
is driving me crazy is the strange behavior of OpenLDAP. When i
execute 'getent passwd' to get all system accounts including
/etc/passwd as well as ldap accouts it works only for the first time.
Whenever i reexecute the getent command it fails, until the first tcp
connections is gone. (see my included log file for detail)
Next strange thing is whenever Samba is startet i can't telnet to
127.0.0.1 389 anymore. Btw. contacting the OpenLDAP Server with a LDAP
browser works all the time (via external Interface - eth0)

In conclusion it seems that the OpenLDAP server is only allowing single
connections, until (all) tcp connections are gone. Does someone have
similar problems or can give me any hint because i haven't seen such
problems so far?

You can see some output logs as well as config files in the
attachment.

Ok, my system settings:
