OpenLDAP 2.3.x : support for windows
by nagarajan 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Thanks for all who gave me an opportunity to be with a good community for open source s/w development. I have begun experimenting OpenLDAP versions in Ubuntu.. I have also tried an installer of version 2.1.x on Windows. I see that the support of OpenLDAP for Windows platform has been kind of withdrawn since 2.2.x versions. I'd like to request the community to join hands to provide support for the same. I have begun working on it...I need help from other developers. The main aim is "Let all users of OpenLDAP be benefited! " Let's foster the development! Thanks.

Dear all, What was used to create the gifs in doc/guide/admin ? I'd like to do some more for replication scenarios, plus others. I could use FreeMind and/or Dia, Gimp.

Status of Connectionless LDAP (cldap)
by Michael B Allen 31 May '07

31 May '07

Hi, What's the status of the client oriented connectionless code? I'm getting an abort. I'm tracking it down now and I'm willing to put some work into this so if anyone has some advice I'd appreciate it.

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s
by Quanah Gibson-Mount 29 May '07

29 May '07

I'm working on a patch to add LDAP SASL support to Postfix 2.4 (I made one for 2.2/2.3 a long time ago), and this time I want it to be accepted upstream, so I'm working on what they feel the issues are. Right now, they (a) always want LDAP_SASL_QUIET enabled (makes perfect sense to me) and (b) want the SASL mechanism to be a list of mechanisms the client supports, that should be tried when connecting to the server. I think (b) is rather non-sensical, given the configurations are rather different between things like DIGEST-MD5, EXTERNAL, and GSSAPI just to start, but... I assume to support this I should use the ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s function, which takes as a parameter a list of mechanisms, if I'm reading it right. The question to me comes up with mixing LDAP_SASL_QUIET in, because part of the routine involved with multiple mechansisms seems to want interaction with the client. My assumption is that if I use ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s, with LDAP_SASL_QUIET, and pass in a list of mechanisms, the client will just use the first mechanism in its list. Is that correct?

ldap_sort_entries(by DN) -> parent first
by Hallvard B Furuseth 19 May '07

19 May '07

I'd like to modify ldap_sort_entries() so that when sorting by DN, it (usually) sorts parents before their children. This slow down a sort somewhat though. Maybe a magic value 'compare-function=NULL' could be passed when sorting DNs to mean that they shall (not) be sorted this way. Anyway, there are two obvious ways to do it: 1. Sort by number of RDNs in the DN before by the DN. This will always work, so on can e.g. feed the output to ldapadd. However the ordering may not be pretty to a human reader. The output is neither alphabetical nor grouped by subtree. Requires a new value in 'struct everything' in libldap/sort.c. 2. Reverse the DNs while sorting, so 'dc=example,dc=com' is sorted as {"dc=com", "dc=example"}. This will normally return the entries with subtrees grouped together, but can fail (put children in front of parents) if the parent DN is represented differently from the parent DN component of the child. Or the combination would also always work, and maybe give somewhat better ordering than #1 to a human reader. Opinions? Objections? -- Regards, Hallvard

An attribute of syntax X can only be a subtype of an attribute of syntax Y if Y is a more generic syntax. In particular, all abstract values representable in X must be representable in Y. While both printable string and directory string syntaxes are more generic than country string, directory string is not more generic than printable string. This is because printable string can represent zero length character strings and directory string cannot. So, what needed, for each syntax, is a list of more generic syntaxes. -- Kurt

Stale and New Docs
by Gavin Henry 17 May '07

17 May '07

Dear All, My first thing planned is a doc for "Replacing Slurpd" in the Replication section of the new TOC I posted. Anyone got a working config for an example, rather than me chopping bits from the tests. Also, anyone got any part-finished docs lying about, but not had time to finish. Lastly, I'd like to get some translators on board when the guide is more complete (2.4). What languages would we like? Gavin. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director.

Restore slapd.replog(5) manpage?
by Hallvard B Furuseth 16 May '07

16 May '07

HEAD/servers/slurpd is gone, but ldapmodify still supports "replica" lines. Which I guess makes sense - someone may use a new client with an older server. So maybe the replog manpage should stay for a while too. (Explaining that it's obsolete, with a reference to syncrepl.) -- Regards, Hallvard
