Description J B Bell 2003-10-02 10:32:09 UTC 
I am using the Redhat 9 source RPM of samba 3.0.0.  I modified the spec file to
configure --with-ldapsam in order to work with our LDAP backend.

When I set an ldap suffix in the SWAT interface (global settings), in some
circumstances, that suffix ends up added again everytime I load the SWAT page. 
The settings are not actually in the file, but of course a commit will add them.
 The workaround is to manually re-set all the ldap suffixes before committing
the global settings in SWAT.  Obviously, this defeats the purpose of SWAT.

I suspect this is to do with loadparm.c's handle_ldap_suffix(), but I'm afraid
my C-fu is weak.
