(ITS#6534) bad ifdef/elif clause in liblutil
by quanah＠OpenLDAP.org 26 Apr '10

26 Apr '10

Full_Name: Quanah Gibson-Mount Version: 2.4.21 OS: NA URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (75.111.45.108) The following if/elif clause in liblutil is wrong: #ifdef HAVE_SETSID (void) setsid(); #elif TIOCNOTTY if ( (sd = open( "/dev/tty", O_RDWR )) != -1 ) { (void) ioctl( sd, TIOCNOTTY, NULL ); (void) close( sd ); } #endif The elif should be #elif defined(TIOCNOTTY)

Re: (ITS#6474) test004 (hdb) crashes when slapd is compiled with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
by Ralf Haferkamp 26 Apr '10

It seems the fix (in r1.169 of back-bdb/dn2id.c, unfortunately the commit messages did refer the wrong ITS :( ) didn't make in into 2.4.22. Was it overlooked or left out intentionally?

Updateref processing should imo be kept out of any replication modules, it is needed in databases where syncrepl isn't configured too. I'm using it on my subordinate databases (with an artificial updatedn so that slapd accepts it..) when syncrepl is configured on the superior glue database without managing all of the subordinate databases. I.e, the infamous test058... I was having the same "chain only on some of the databases" requirement and is using a patch that allows it. I consider this patch more of a hack than a correct solution, which is why I haven't contributed it. A separate updateref overlay apear to me as the best solution. But for what it's worth, my patch is now in: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/rein-ITS6531.patch An advantage with this patch over a new overlay is that it should be usable without any configuration changes (provided the chain overlay have already been configured in the databases and found to not work as expected there that is ... ;-).

As I said, I recognize the usefulness of such a change: I first moved replication into an overlay (ITS#4261). I'm questioning its need for the case at hand. Perhaps allowing slapo-chain to ignore some URIs would be easier to implement, and generally useful in other applications. In any case, I might spare some time to revitalize (ITS#4261), now that slurpd is no longer around and thus things simplify significantly. p.

(ITS#6533) add rid to syncrepl config logs
by jonathan＠phillipoux.net 25 Apr '10

25 Apr '10

Full_Name: Jonathan Clarke Version: RE24 OS: URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/jonathan-clarke-syncrepl-log-20100425.patch Submission from: (NULL) (88.164.187.72) Hi, Currently, when a syncrepl statement is added, the following is output on log level config: Config: ** successfully added syncrepl "ldap://localhost:9011/" In the case of setups replicating several databases from the same server (multimaster with cn=config and a database for example), this leads to confusing identical messages. I attach a patch to add the RID to this line, like this: Config: ** successfully added syncrepl "ldap://localhost:9011/" (rid=001) Please consider this for inclusion. Thanks, Jonathan

(ITS#6532) Support for common orderingMatching rules in extensible match filters
by daniel＠pluta.biz 25 Apr '10

25 Apr '10

Full_Name: Daniel Pluta Version: HEAD OS: Linux URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/servers-slapd-schema_init.patch Submission from: (NULL) (2001:470:9feb:ff02:f435:4e97:f213:bc9e) In regard to http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201004/msg00228.html I've uploaded a patch which enables support for octetStringOrderingMatch to be used in combination with extensible match filters. According RFC4517 section 4.1 the following ordering matching rules currently available in slapd are affected by this patch: caseIgnoreOrderingMatch caseExactOrderingMatch In addition I've added this kind of support to generalizedTimeOrderingMatch, too. The patch can be downloaded here: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/servers-slapd-schema_init.patch Note: RFC4517 section 4.1 also lists some substring matching rules which also SHOULD be supported in extensible match filters. slapd as well as my patch currently do not offer support for them.

The request revolves around having different behavior for different databases. With a global slapo-chain you cannot turn off referral chasing; URIs that are not explicitly configured will still be chased. Also in terms of logical abstraction the current behavior is wrong; the frontend should of course generate the default_referral responses but updateref is a per-backend item and should be generated at the backend layer. Ideally this would all have been fixed to behave correctly by moving all replication support into an overlay, where it properly belongs. As an interim step it would be trivial to write an updateref overlay that supersedes the current updateref behavior. -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

The slapo-chain needs to be global, in order to intercept those referrals. Although redesigning referral generation in slapd could streamline things, I don't quite see what issues can't be addressed using a global instance of slapo-chain. You can configure referral chasing differently for different domains using the chain-uri directive. I favor fixing only what's actually broken. p.

cn=monitor attributes (monitorOpInitiated for example) missing in cn=Subschema
by Cannady, Mike 25 Apr '10

25 Apr '10

I'm using openldap-stable-20100219.tgz build. When I look at cn=Monitor with browsing tools (like Softerra LDAP browser) I do see entries for monitorOpInitiated and monitorOpCompleted in DN cn=Operations,cn=Monitor. When I look at cn=SubSchema, I do not see any definitions of these two attributes. Using (unfortunately) Microsoft's VBScript, ADODB, and ADsDSOOBJECT to access to access cn=Monitor, I can access everything that is defined in the subschema (entryDN, modifyTimestamp, etc); however, I cannot access MonitorOpInitiated and such. Looking at the logs, It looks like the query never gets to the ldap server because MS checks it against the cn=subschema. I saw ITS#4947 and ITS#5576 which sounds like what my problem is (attributes not published). Is there a fix for this and what would that fix be? My OS for the ldap server is Redhat Enterprise 5.4. At the end of this email is my redacted slapd.conf file. ---Thanks Mike Cannady Information Services Horry Telephone Cooperative (HTC) Phone: (843)369-8212 Email: Mike.Cannady(a)htcinc.net [root@vmLDAPdev2 openldap]# cat slapd.conf # # See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options. # This file should NOT be world readable. # include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/HTC/iaaa-radius.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/HTC/radius.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/HTC/users.schema # Allow LDAPv2 client connections.
