missing attribute "sambaGroupType" when attempting to create a new group - creating groups worked previously

[Tom Spettigue]

Hey all -

I seem to be getting the following error message whenever I try to create a group via the
web interface:

```
IPA Error 4205: ObjectclassViolation

missing attribute "sambaGroupType" required by object class
"sambaGroupMapping"
```

I'm not sure exactly what's happening, except that I know I've created groups
numerous times before, and never gotten this error message. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have found an issue. In my logs, I'm seeing the following error, repeatedly:

[25/May/2021:14:48:48.019369320 -0600] - ERR - slapi_ldap_bind - Error: could not send startTLS request: error -1 (Can't contact LDAP server) errno 107 (Transport endpoint is not connected)

This remains an issue for me, and sadly, has become a little bit more pressing as there is some need for some new groups. I found this thread from the past, although I don't know how applicable it is anymore: https://freeipa-users.redhat.narkive.com/9EBwEuXO/freeipa-as-a-password-back...
