Recommendation for Web Interface for OpenLDAP
by Wes Modes
Howdy, I'm looking for a web interface for OpenLDAP. I
want something pretty simple since I won't need to
reorganize the entire DIT through the web, only add,
delete, and modify users and groups.
I'm using smbldap-tools which has it's own set of scripts
that I can tap into. I will need to extend the web
interface to modify the samba schema extensions to LDAP or
run the smbldap-scripts.
With that in mind, I am interested in something written in
PHP or Perl that can be easily modified or extended.
I'd love it if you can recommend a simple web interface
for LDAP. If you can recommend something, please tell me
what features appeal to you or work well for you. And how
does it meet my criteria:
* Simple - minimal bells and whistles
* add, delete, and modify users
* add, delete, and modify groups
* secure - using SSL/TLS
* linux and apache friendly
* written in perl, php, or python
Thanks for your help.

Password policy definitions
by Gustavo Mendes de Carvalho
Hi there,
I noted that ppolicy is yet in development and because of that I would like
to check how can I do some password history check. I mean, how can I apply
same password policy defined in /etc/pam.d/system-auth, like history, size,
new chars when changing password, and so on ?
I running OpenLDAP 2.2.13, because is the RHAS4 current version.
Is there any way to force LDAP Seerver to use /etc/pam.d/system-auth
definitions ?
Thanks

by divya shree
hii
we r trying to write a php script to bind to the ldap server..
the php script is
<?php
// basic sequence with LDAP is connect, bind, search, interpret search
// result, close connection
echo "LDAP query test";
echo "Connecting ...";
$ds=ldap_connect("localhost"); // must be a valid LDAP server!
echo "connect result is " . $ds ;
if ($ds) {
echo "Binding ...";
$r=ldap_bind($ds); // this is an "anonymous" bind, typically
// read-only access
echo "Bind result is " . $r ;
}
?>
we also tried doin
$ldapset=ldap_set_option($ldapconn,LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION,3);
and
$ldapbind = ldap_bind($ldapconn, $ldaprdn, $ldappass);
where Ldaprdn= rootdn in the slapd.conf file and ldappass is the password
we r getting the following error in all the above cases

Features supported
by Molenda, Mark P
Previous to my last Linux build, I've always built OpenLdap from source.
My latest build has pre-compiled OpenLdap and rather than rebuild
everything, is there a way to easily figure out what options were used
to create this build?
Thank you for your time in looking at this issue.

Delete events not propogating with syncrepl
by Srinidhi Sharma
Hi,
I am using open ldap 2.4.8 with Berkeley DB 4.6.21 ( I haven't applied any
patch to either open ldap or to Berkeley DB).
When I configure a slave process, the addition and modification of users get
propogated from master to slave. But the deletion of users from the master
do not get propogated. the slapd logs in the master show that user is
getting deleted.
I saw a old note "
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-bugs/200409/msg00001.html" which
listed similar issue.

Testing procedure
=============
- I have created 1 DN called with dn as
"cn=user3,ou=SCIG,ou=Govt-Dept,o=HKSARG", then, I use a program to
update the attribute(user defined) LastLoginTime in server 1, after
that, I list the content of the content of LastLoginTime in both server
1 and server 2 and find that the content is different. server 1's data
is correct but server 2's data is not correct.
In checking the ldap log in server 2, I find the following : It seems
that the update request is ignored, what's wrong ? I have checked the
time in both server 1 and server 2, they are the same.

Serious performance problems
by Mikel.Santos＠idom.com
Hi guys,
First of all, I would like to thank the community for such a great piece of
software and encourage the developers to keep up the good work.
Until now, the setup of the ldap and the file configuration has been pretty
straightforward. The ldap was performing great with few entries, but things
got worse as the number of entries in the ldap increased.
Currently we are experiencing serious performance problems when the
searches performed exceed certain amount of entries. The "ldap_search"
calls usually return after a few seconds but as the number of results
matching the filter entered increases, the waiting time varies from one
minute to many minutes.
The scenario is the following:
* We are accessing openldap via PHP function calls
* The number of entries in the ldap is close to 100.000
* The hardware is the following: Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.33GHz 1Gb RAM
* The slapd.conf file is the following:
/************************************************************************************************************/
modulepath /usr/lib/ldap
moduleload back_bdb
sizelimit -1
tool-threads 1
backend bdb
checkpoint 512 30
database bdb
directory "/var/lib/ldap"
dbconfig set_cachesize 0 2097152 0
cachesize 100000
/************************************************************************************************************/
We have tried to increase both set_cachesize and cachesize (multiplying
both by 100) and have not noticed a performance increase.
I hope any of you can point us in the right direction since we are
beginning to get desperated...
Thanks in advance,
Mikel
