First, you should add objectclass as an index to get rid of a lot of those warnings. Secondly, nothing in that log will explain why Ubuntu kicks you out. You'll need to look at the system logs. It could be something as simple as the home directory not existing. It's almost certainly an Ubuntu problem of some sort.

On homeDirectory attribute for "zingalo" i wrote //192.168.5.219/users/zingalo but doesn't work. If you have experience with a similar configuration please give me some suggestions. Thanks
