Hi List,
I need to configure a master and slave ldap server with replication. I am running openSUSE10.2 and openldap2-2.3.27-25. Initially I was using slurpd but syncrepl was recommended to me as being more agreeable with my ldap version.
I configured my master and slave according to the instructions from the openldap web site: http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin22/syncrepl.html
Here is the slave slapd.conf:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ loglevel 256 TLSCertificateFile /etc/openldap/servercert.pem TLSCACertificateFile /etc/openldap/cacert.pem TLSCertificateKeyFile /etc/openldap/serverkey.pem database bdb suffix "dc=mydomain,dc=com" rootdn "cn=replica,dc=mydomain,dc=com" rootpw "{ssha}mypassword" directory /var/lib/ldap/ checkpoint 1024 5 cachesize 10000 index objectClass,uidNumber,gidNumber eq index member,mail eq,pres index cn,displayname,uid,sn,givenname sub,eq,pres
#Entries for replication using sync-repl
syncrepl rid=123 provider=ldap://ldap1.mydomain.com type=refreshAndPersist #interval=01:00:00:00 searchbase="dc=mydomain,dc=com" filter="(objectClass=organizationalPerson)" scope=sub attrs="cn,sn,ou,telephoneNumber,title,l" schemachecking=off updatedn="cn=replica,dc=mydomain,dc=com" bindmethod=sasl #saslmech=digest-md5 binddn="cn=Administrator,dc=mydomain,dc=com" credentials="{ssha}mypassword"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
And here is my master slapd.conf
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ loglevel 256 TLSCertificateFile /etc/openldap/servercert.pem TLSCACertificateFile /etc/openldap/cacert.pem TLSCertificateKeyFile /etc/openldap/serverkey.pem database bdb suffix "dc=mydomain,dc=com" rootdn "cn=Administrator,dc=mydomain,dc=com" rootpw "{ssha}mypassword" directory /var/lib/ldap/ checkpoint 1024 5 cachesize 10000 index objectClass,uidNumber,gidNumber eq index member,mail eq,pres index cn,displayname,uid,sn,givenname sub,eq,pres
#Entries for replication using sync-repl
sessionlog 999 999

OK as you can see I am using bindmethod=sasl because when I was using bindmethod=simple, I got an error code 49 LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS
Now as far as I can detirmine from the log below, the connection is made so syncrepl is configured correctly but there is some sort of problem with sasl. It seems that the attribute "supportedSASLMechanisms" is not found on the master. I get the same error If I uncomment the "saslmech=digest-md5" entry.
/var/log/messages on the master: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 fd=13 ACCEPT from IP= 192.168.2.246:9243 (IP=0.0.0.0:389) Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 op=0 SRCH base="" scope=0 deref=0 filter="(objectClass=*)" Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 op=0 SRCH attr=supportedSASLMechanisms Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 op=0 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=0 nentries=1 text= Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 op=1 UNBIND Nov 14 18:52:28 ldap1 slapd[18695]: conn=35 fd=13 closed +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
and on the slave: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Nov 14 16:13:47 ldap2 slapd[8305]: @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.3.27 (Nov 25 2006 17:08:16) $ abuild@eisler:/usr/src/packages/BUILD/openldap-2.3.27 /servers/slapd Nov 14 16:14:07 ldap2 slapd[8305]: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldap://127.0.0.1: Can't contact LDAP server Nov 14 16:14:07 ldap2 slapd[8305]: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldap://127.0.0.1: Can't contact LDAP server Nov 14 16:14:07 ldap2 slapd[8305]: nss_ldap: could not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable Nov 14 16:14:07 ldap2 slapd[8312]: slapd starting Nov 14 16:14:07 ldap2 slapd[8312]: do_syncrep1: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s failed (16) ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Am I on the right track looking for the errors in sasl, and if so, how do I set the attributes?
Thanks in advance
