ldap account with local accounts

[Yariv Hakim]

hi, 

I have setup ldap authentication to my samba active directory and it's working great.
the issue is when i want to use local accounts ( for example admin). he always looks at the LDAP and fail.  
is there a way for both local accounts and ldap accounts to co-exits  ?

[Yariv Hakim]

update on this matter:

the issue is only with the admin account, 
the other accounts are working with both LDAP and local password

Hello Yariv,

To better help you could you share the server logs with us ? Located in /var/log/minarca/server.log

You may also double check your configuration related to "admin" user: https://nexus.ikus-soft.com/repository/archive/minarca/6.1.2/doc/configuration.html#configure-administrator-username-and-password

thank you.

after I setup LDAP integration, and i try to login with admin , i'm getting the following error:

it looks like  it only looks in ldap.

when i disable ldap configuration , it local admin accounts works well:

Hello Yariv,

It might be a bug in the ldap authentication module that I need to look at. It should not fail the way it does...

Could you open a ticket in gitlab with all the information. Could you also share your ldap configuration in the ticket.

Thanks
