Hardcoded libraries in Openldap binaries on AIX
by Martin Horak 09 Jun '07

09 Jun '07

Hello. I have a problem with compiling openldap suite on AIX. I feel it has certainly trivial solution, but I'm not so skilled in C development, so I can't solve it. After compiling, all binaries have hardcoded library dependencies: # cd /home/horakmar/src/openldap-2.3.4 # servers/slapd/slapd Could not load program servers/slapd/slapd: Dependent module ../../libraries/libldap_r/.libs/libldap_r.a(libldap_r-2.3.so.0) could not be loaded. Could not load module ../../libraries/libldap_r/.libs/libldap_r.a(libldap_r- 2.3.so.0). System error: No such file or directory # ldd servers/slapd/slapd servers/slapd/slapd needs: /lib/libs.a(shr.o) /lib/libpthreads.a(shr_comm.o) /lib/libpthreads.a(shr_xpg5.o) /home/qshorakmar/src/openldap-2.3.4 /libraries/liblber/.libs/liblber.a(liblber-2.3.so.0) Cannot find ../../libraries/libldap_r/.libs/libldap_r.a(libldap_r-2.3.so.0) /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.0.9.7) /unix /lib/libcrypt.a(shr.o) /lib/libc.a(shr.o) /lib/libc.a(shr_64.o) /lib/libcrypt.a(shr_64.o) # dump -H servers/slapd/slapd servers/slapd/slapd: ***Loader Section*** Loader Header Information VERSION# #SYMtableENT #RELOCent LENidSTR 0x00000001 0x00000183 0x0000226b 0x00000119 #IMPfilID OFFidSTR LENstrTBL OFFstrTBL 0x00000007 0x0001c16c 0x0000130c 0x0001c285 ***Import File Strings*** INDEX PATH BASE MEMBER 0 /opt/freware/lib:/usr/lib:/lib 1 libs.a shr.o 2 libpthreads.a shr_comm.o 3 libpthreads.a shr_xpg5.o 4 /home/qshorakmar/src/openldap-2.3.4/libraries/liblber/.libs liblber.a liblber-2.3.so.0 5 ../../libraries/libldap_r/.libs libldap_r.a libldap_r- 2.3.so.0 6 libcrypto.a libcrypto.so.0.9.7 Client tools (e.g. ldapsearch) suffer from the same problem. When I install libraries into desired directories, program works. But dependency on directory in which it's being run is very unpleasant. Please do you have any idea, how to get rid of those: ../../libraries/libldap_r/.libs libldap_r.a /home/qshorakmar/src/openldap-2.3.4/libraries/liblber/.libs liblber.a ? Thank you in advance, Martin Horak

Search replies processed twice?
by José Marco 09 Jun '07

09 Jun '07

I programmed something like this very simple code inside an overlay. The idea is quite simple: if a search fulfills a condition, a new search should be done and the retrieved entries should also be returned to the client. (It is ensured that the second search does not fulfill the condition). static int response( Operation *op, SlapReply *rs ){ if ( op->o_tag == LDAP_REQ_SEARCH ){ switch ( rs->sr_type ){ case REP_SEARCH: // Show op and rs values in the debug console Debug(LDAP_DEBUG_TRACE, "#################### I Enter REP_SEARCH +++++++++++++++++\n",0,0,0); return SLAP_CB_CONTINUE; break; case REP_RESULT: // Show op and rs values in the debug console Debug(LDAP_DEBUG_TRACE, "#################### I Enter REP_RESULT +++++++++++++++++\n",0,0,0); // Check for subsearch condition ... if (check){ // Op2 initialize Operation op2 = *op; // Some op2 initialization code (just change the filter so the result of the previous check is false next time for this over config) Debug(LDAP_DEBUG_TRACE, "#################### Subsearch: start *****\n",0,0,0); [Option1: op2.o_bd = select_backend( &op->o_req_ndn, get_manageDSAit( op ), 1 ); (op2.o_bd->be_search)( &op2, rs ); ] [ Option2: fe_op_search( &op2, &rr ); ] Debug(LDAP_DEBUG_TRACE, "#################### Subsearch: finish ************\n",0,0,0); } return SLAP_CB_CONTINUE; break; } } return SLAP_CB_CONTINUE; } The code is just that simple but I found that when the subsearch is done, the ldap server runs the response twice for each retrieved entry. I suppose that the entries are being sent twice regardless of the search function I use (fe_op_search or be_search). Anyone can give me a hint on why? Are those the correct searching functions? If so, which one is more appropriate?

best practice: admin accounts?
by Craig 08 Jun '07

08 Jun '07

I need to create a user (or 2) for replication only, but don't really know where to put it or which structural class it should be. I was thinking about: dn: uid=Replicator,dc=example,dc=com objectClass: top objectClass: account objectClass: shadowAccount userPassword: <some pw> uid: Replicator This works, but is this really the best way to create "admin accounts"? For me, "admin accounts" are accounts used for various tasks related to server (not necessarily just slapd) maintenance. (Replication is the only "task" I can think of at the moment.) Also, I have the following org unit: dn: ou=People,dc=example,dc=com ou: People objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalUnit I was putting the above DN (cn=Replicator,...) in the root (as opposed to "ou=People,..."). Does that make sense? Or should I create an ou just for "admin/misc" accounts? Lastly, is there a way to give a "non-plain text" password for the syncrel user: syncrepl rid=123 ... bindmethod=simple binddn="cn=Replicator,dc=example,dc=com" credentials={SSHA}<encrypted string> All of the examples and docs seem to indicate that the credentials should be the password for the "binddn" in clear text. TIA! Craig

In any case, to me your configuration looks good, so I guess it's about the URI you're using "ldaps://" which might not work as expected. In this case, I suggest you rather check if the provider gets contacted at all, and, in case, why it doesn't accept the connection. As per the core dump, it should deserve more attention but, for this, we need a non-stripped binary. In that case, you might need to build the latest OpenLDAP release yourself (it's not a big deal, though). p. Ing.

index an attribute makes it unusable in a filter
by sudhakar 07 Jun '07

07 Jun '07

We have a custom string attribute in our ldap schema that tracks the status of the user's account. If the attribute is indexed any search query which filters on that specific attribute fails to return any results. If I remove the index on that attribute then everything runs fine. While this is not a show stopper, it would still be nice to index this particular attribute since it is used in filters very often. I was wondering if someone has noticed similar behavior and what the solution might be. We have other custom attributes are being indexed and functioning correctly. Thanks in advance -sud

Rewrite DN format?
by Nels Lindquist 06 Jun '07

06 Jun '07

Hi there. I'm trying to merge entries from one tree into another, but the DN format for each tree is different. We're talking about inetOrgPerson entries, if that matters. Specifically, the old DNs are of the form: dn: cn=person,o=org,c=ca And the new DNs are of the form: dn: uid=username,ou=People,dc=example,dc=ca I'm using OpenLDAP 2.1.19, and I suspect that slapd-meta might be able to do what I need. All the examples I've been able to find seem to do with rewriting suffixes, however. I need to go slightly further and rewrite the DN itself. Is this possible, or am I barking up the wrong tree? Thanks very much for any assistance/configuration examples! Nels Lindquist

monitoring openldap
by Scott Feldstein 06 Jun '07

06 Jun '07

Hello, I was looking at the docs on http://www.openldap.org/devel/admin/ monitoringslapd.html and section 13.1 (cn=config) has yet to be written. Could anyone give me a brief description what what that is? Also, I am writing a health check for openldap and I am only able to find effective monitoring stats via the cn=Monitor but that is not always configured in every slapd instance. Is there another way of going about this? thanks, Scott
