referential integrity
by manu＠netbsd.org 06 Jul '07

06 Jul '07

Hello I have been reading the docs, looking for a way to acheive referential integrity as it is done in RDBMS. For instance, if I want to constraint the value of atribute title to a set of value, so that any modification to a value not in the list would be denied. Let's say the set of legal values could be stored in the directory, ad objects of a dedicated class; How can it be done? slapo-refint is not about denying changes, slapo-constraint can only enforce regex matching.. Is there anything else I missed? -- Emmanuel Dreyfus http://hcpnet.free.fr/pubz manu(a)netbsd.org

back-sql and multiple objectclasses
by Wilhelm Meier 06 Jul '07

06 Jul '07

Hi, I have a problem using back-sql and entries with multiple object classes: If I add the entry: dn: cn=testuser2,dc=kmux,dc=de cn: testuser2 sn: test objectClass: top objectClass: person objectClass: posixAccount gidNumber: 514 uidNumber: 4711 uid: test2 homeDirectory: hh I get in the logs of slapd complains that attr uidNumber in objectClass person is undefined. That's right, but the object has the additional class posixAccount, which has the attribute. When I look in the logs, I see that the table ldap_entry_objectclasses gets inserted the auxiliary class posixAccount AFTER it tries to set the attribute uidNumber. So ist clear that it doen't find the attribute. The tables in the database are constructed similar to the objectclasses. Any hints? -- Wilhelm

error after OS upgrade
by Greg Martin 06 Jul '07

06 Jul '07

I upgrade to Slackware 12 this weekend and now openldap won't start. A google search didn't help me. I'm running 2.3.27. I can restore from backup, just want to make sure that's necessary and maybe I can learn something in the process. Errors from the tail end of ldap.log: bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): unable to allocate memory for mutex; resize mutex region bdb_db_open: Database cannot be opened, err 12. Restore from backup! ====> bdb_cache_release_all bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): DB_ENV->lock_id_free interface requires an environment configured for the locking subsystem bdb(dc=gmartin,dc=org): txn_checkpoint interface requires an environment configured for the transaction subsystem bdb_db_close: txn_checkpoint failed: Invalid argument (22) Thanks \\Greg

force use of start_tls: how?
by Andreas Hasenack 06 Jul '07

06 Jul '07

I'm trying to avoid mistakes and configure a server and/or client to force the use of start tls. So, if someone binds to the server and accidentally forgets to configure start_tls on the client, the connection is rejected. The problem is that the rejection happens too late: the client password was already sent to the server in clear test. So far I have tested using acls (ssf=56) and the global "security" setting with ssf, simple_bind and transport. In all cases, the unencrypted access is rejected, but too late: the password was sent. I guess what I need is a setting in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf similar to the sasl minssf property, but for non-sasl binds. Is there such a thing? Something that would behave as if -ZZ was always added to the openldap command-line tools.

performance tuning
by Jason Peters 05 Jul '07

05 Jul '07

I am testing an OpenLDAP server with 3000 fake 'people' entries, but it does not perform as well as I would expect. I have added some tweaks based on my research of the documentation. Is there anything I am missing here? Is there any way to further tune this setup? I have written a script to test the directory. It is written in PHP using the standard LDAP libraries. Both the script, and the LDAP server are running on the same box. The script is calling the server via the public interface (not the loopback) using standard port 80. It basically does a search on a matching query. The search query was "sn=BE*". Below is the info for my setup: Linux Debian etch system OpenLDAP version: # /usr/sbin/slapd -V @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.3.30 (Mar 9 2007 05:43:02) $ Here are my additions to the slapd.conf file (other than these, the file is essentially like the default): . . . . TLSCipherSuite HIGH TLSCACertificateFile /etc/ldap/demoCA/cacert.pem TLSCertificateFile /etc/ldap/newcert.pem TLSCertificateKeyFile /etc/ldap/newreq.pem TLS_REQCERT never ############################################### # Performance tweaks added by me -JLP index sn subinitial cachesize 100000 dbcachesize 1000000 # Tells openldap how many threads to use # more does not necessarily mean better performance unless you have multiple cpus threads 8 # Tells slapd to close connections that have been idle for 30 seconds or more. idletimeout 30 # Tells slapd to store the 20,000 most used IDL's frequented when accessing entries in memory. idlcachesize 20000 EOF tia, Jason
