    Everything was working well up untill 2 days ago, when i am asuming when i changed the dns server settings something went screwy. I can no longer bind my clinet to directory services, i have even tried compleetly reinstalling the server.

    I get the following errors in the LDAP log during the bind proccess.

    Feb 10 18:37:25 gondor slapd[2040]: <= bdb_equality_candidates: (apple-computers) index_param failed (18)\n Feb 10 18:39:09 gondor slapd[2040]: <= bdb_equality_candidates: (apple-computers) index_param failed (18)\n the client just sitins there indefinitly "Attempting to bind computer to directory" untill i manually kill the directory services window and damon process. I am at my wits end if anyone can point me in the right direction before i decide to reformat the client as well ! Thanks John

    After much beating my head against the wall, I am still not sure what was going on, but narrowed it down to something was wrong with the client. After a quick refresh of the laptop in question (the accounts are all network so no data loss) everthing worked flawlessly. I am still puzzled to what happened to cause the issue because when it happened the laptop basicly droped off the network and refused to talk to directory services.

    The only thing that was changed on the network priror to the crash was the addition of a DNS zone to the server, as I was pulling the last of the AD servers offline.

    for my future reference how do i put DirectoryServices in debug mode?

    I’m still new to alot of this, after learning AD and windows server, i am unlearning and relearning the apple way 😀
