https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10362 Issue ID: 10362 Summary: Normalised value confusions in replication Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- A lot of code expects a_nvals state to be consistent across modifies and multiple instances of the same attribute (with asserts to that effect), but replication doesn't seem to obey this: Add this assert into syncrepl_diff_entry()[0] : assert( ( old->a_nvals == NULL ) == ( new->a_nvals == NULL ) ); if ( old->a_nvals ) assert( ( old->a_nvals == old->a_vals ) == ( new->a_nvals == new->a_vals ) ); You'll see many tests fail this, the first of which is test043.

[Issue 9584] New: cn=config replication ops/refresh should pause server

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9584 Issue ID: 9584 Summary: cn=config replication ops/refresh should pause server Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- Looking into this crash: https://git.openldap.org/openldap/openldap/-/jobs/7286 The thread in question is running a plain syncrepl refresh while another thread seems to have done the same. This thread fetched the entryUUID attribute of the 'cn=config' entry as 'a' and in the meantime, that entry has been rewritten, with 'a' presumably cleaned up and returned to the pool, so addressing a->a_nvals[0] is a NULL-dereference now. This might or might not be related to the fix in ITS#8102. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9881] New: Ability to track last authentication for database objects
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 04 Dec '25

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9881 Issue ID: 9881 Summary: Ability to track last authentication for database objects Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: quanah(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- For simple binds, we have the ability to track the last success via the lastbind functionality (pwdLastSuccess attribute). However this doesn't allow one to see when an object that exists in a database last authenticated via SASL. It would be useful to add similar functionality for SASL binds. This can be useful information that allows one to tell if an object is being actively authenticated to (generally, users and system accounts, etc). Obviously if something is directly mapped to an identity that doesn't exist in the underlying DB, that cannot be tracked. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9829] New: set timeouts in remoteauth overlay

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9829 Issue ID: 9829 Summary: set timeouts in remoteauth overlay Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: david.coutadeur(a)gmail.com Target Milestone: --- Currently, it seems there is no way to configure timeouts in the remoteauth overlay. For example, if I define a remoteauth_mapping with a file containing a list of hostnames, the first one is checked first. After "remoteauth_retry_count" * "connect_timeout" seconds, (210s on my system), remoteauth test the second server in the list. In some circumstances, it could be nice to set the connect timeout lower (or higher). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9652] New: Add "tee" capability to load balancer
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 04 Dec '25

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9652 Issue ID: 9652 Summary: Add "tee" capability to load balancer Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: lloadd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: mhardin(a)symas.com Target Milestone: --- This is a request for an enhancement that would add a "tee" or "fan-out" capability to load balancer, where received operations are sent to two or more destinations simultaneously. The primary goal or the enhancement is to make it possible to keep multiple independent and likely dissimilar directory systems in lock-step with each other over hours, days, or possibly even weeks. The enhancement would not necessarily need to include a mechanism for converging the target systems should they become out of sync. This is not intended to be a replication solution, rather it is viewed more as a "copy" solution intended to be used for specific short-term tasks that need multiple directory systems to be exactly synchronized but where replication is not desirable or even possible. At least two uses come to mind: 1. Test harnesses, evaluating side-by-side operation of separate directory systems over time 2. Directory system transition validation harnesses 3. (maybe) Part of a test harness to record or replay LDAP workloads * Other uses? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9731] New: startup messages still go to syslog when logfile-only is on

[Issue 9726] New: Admin guide and man pages need better documentation on disabling syslog

However, there is no documentation on the new settings or examples of how to do this in the admin guide, and the man page sections on the new parameters for the logfile side do not note at when/how they enable bypassing syslog. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
