syncprov_playlog() and sl_mutex
by Pierangelo Masarati 04 Oct '07

04 Oct '07

There seems to be no (longer?) reason for syncprov_playlog() to release the sl_mutex from inside. I'd prefer, for readability, to lock/unlock either inside or outside the function call.

Basic examples of new overlays worthwhile ?
by Buchan Milne 03 Oct '07

03 Oct '07

Someone on #ldap was having trouble with slapo-memberof, so I did a quick basic example to confirm it works, available at http://pastebin.ca/724050 So, I wonder if it is worthwhile having some examples like this in the documentation or not ? Or, would it be better to ship a test for the overlay, and provide a more complete example of a rfc2307bis-type setup ? Alternatively, is there a to-do list for the outstanding documentation work ? Regards, Buchan

Patch for memberOf overlay section from Buchan Milne (Was: Re: commit: openldap-guide/admin overlays.sdf)

Few comments (I'd fix it myself, but I'm not native English and I don't have sdf installed, so you'd probably do a much better job): The last sentence > Note that the {{B:memberOf}} attribute is an operational attribute, so > it must be requested explicitly. should be completed by adding (for dummies :) > Note that the {{B:memberOf}} attribute is an operational attribute, so > it must be requested explicitly in search requests. Moreover, I made "memberOf" operational by hacking the original definition, in order to be able to add it to arbitrary entries without the need to add the "extensibleObject" objectClass, or to create a specific "memberOfGroup" auxiliary obhjectClass that allows "memberOf" and add it to all entries where the attribute is added. This has to be fixed somehow. Either we define our own "member-of" attribute and make it operational, or we define a "memberOfGroup" auxiliary objectClass as described above, or whatever. Finally, I'd mention that if the overlay is added to an existing database, data is not sanitized by populating all entries according to their group membership. This is on the TODO list. There might be other minor sanity checks missing that I'm not aware of. p. Ing.

si_presentlist could use a single malloc instead of two :)
by Pierangelo Masarati 02 Oct '07

02 Oct '07

Bervals stored in si_presentlist could use a single malloc instead of two if the berval and the payload are malloc'ed in one shot. This would be allowed by the very well confined use that is made of those data. Any objection? p. Ing.

[Fwd: LDAP/Samba 4 summary]
by Howard Chu 02 Oct '07

02 Oct '07

Yesterday afternoon at the CIFS Workshop we had a meeting to discuss Samba 4's use of LDAP going forward, and what obstacles remained. Among the attendees that I can remember were Andrew Bartlett, Andrew Tridgell, Simo Sorce, Stefan Metzmacher, and (one more, I've forgotten the name) from the Samba team. Nicole Jacque and another (sorry, don't remember the name) from Apple/OpenDirectory, Pete Rowley from FedoraDS, and myself and Marty Heyman for OpenLDAP and Symas. The upshot is that both the Samba and the LDAP sides have work to do, but there are no major roadblocks. LDAP will be Samba 4's default/recommended data store. As for OpenLDAP, most of what Samba 4 needs is either already implemented, or in progress. Schema design tends to still be a stumbling block; in a separate conversation we discussed some design issues in MIT's new Kerberos schema as well as missing features in Heimdal's existing Kerberos schema. That's a bit outside this openldap-devel scope but I've committed to working with the Samba and Kerberos communities to draft some changes to unify these two Kerberos schemas. -- -- Howard Chu Chief Architect, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/

What's with all the double commit e-mails with /tmp/msg in them? Just curious. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. OpenLDAP Engineering Team.

back-sock in HEAD
by Quanah Gibson-Mount 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

back-sock has been added to HEAD by Howard. However, AFAIK it remains untested, so I won't be putting that bit of work into 2.4 for now. If people could poke at it with a sharp stick and follow up with any issues via the ITS that would be great. I'll do some testing on it as well. ;) --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

New Appendices
by Gavin Henry 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Here's the Appendix Title list I was thinking about: * "Common Errors" (port from FAQ-O-MATIC) - Possibly with a section discussing LDAP spec errors codes to cover all the error 49 questions we *always* get - Linked to from the Troubleshooting section in the main body of the Guide * "Real World Deployments/Examples" (or a better title, as just listing config files like the current placeholder isn't good enough) * Contrib Modules/tools, as some users aren't aware of this in our source That's all I can remember just now, my notes are back home. Chat soon, Gavin. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director. T +44 (0) 1224 279484 M +44 (0) 7930 323266 F +44 (0) 1224 824887 E ghenry(a)suretecsystems.com Open Source.
