Hello again,

Here is description of my first problem I encountered during setting up samba 3.0.23c and LDAP 2.3.28. Linux box is one of intel server platforms and debian etch (unstable) on board. Debian has its own ldap libraries in /usr/ldap.... and there are more then one but with different version ldap files. Despite of these I always compile almost everything from sources so this time I tried ldap-2.3.28. I compiled it, installed in opt/ldap, populated and run. So far so good.
Next I started compiling samba 3.0.23c but theres is no switch to pass LDAP directory so I simply exported CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS so samba can find ldap.h and appropriate libraries. Done OK. Next I checked samba's libs with ldd to be sure that there are linked to good ldap libraries.

So I run samba. First attempt to authorize and PANIC:

Why /usr/lib/libldap_2.so.2 in this log??? Hmmm it was strange, but I compiled samba with debug mode but it was too much helpfull or maybe I did something wrong:
1) compile with --enable-debug --enable-developer
2) run: gdb ; attach PID; bt;  -> NOTHING - much less than in samba log file.
...so I can't provide this time more.... maybe you can help me what to do with this gdb and backtrace to get more details?

Anyway I found workaround .... I simply changed link /usr/lib/libldap_r.so.2 to point to /opt/ldap/lib/libldapxxxx - now it works. But it doesn't really explain why samba uses libldap_2 from /usr/lib/ since I've switched to /opt/ldap/???
