LDAP proxy with back_ldap: (?=undefined)
by Torsten Schlabach (Tascel eG) 13 Sep '11

13 Sep '11

Hi all! I am trying to setup the simplest possible LDAP proxy with OpenLDAP. Actually, I do have a machine with one interface on a public IP address and the other one on the private network. So all I want is a pass-through of any LDAP query 1:1 from the proxy which sits on the public IP to an LDAP server which can be reached only through a private IP on our internal network. Here is my config: database ldap suffix "o=top" uri "ldap://192.168.12.34/" My problem is: The query sent to the backend server always contains a (?=undefined) condition, which leads to no objects found. In other words, the query I send to the proxy is for example: (&(?objectClass=mailalias)(dc=xxxx.yy)) The back_ldap will send to the backend server: (&(&(?objectClass=mailalias)(dc=xxxx.yy))(?=undefined)) Any idea? Regards, Torsten

Can't contact LDAP server

I have a 2-way multi-master setup on srv1.foo.com (EDT) and srv2.foo.com (PDT). For about 2hrs this morning srv2 was syslog'ing "Can't contact LDAP server" while it was in a replication conversation with srv1: Sep 9 05:29:45 srv2 slapd[9413]: do_syncrep2: rid=001 (-1) Can't contact LDAP server Sep 9 05:29:45 srv2 slapd[9413]: do_syncrepl: rid=001 rc -1 retrying Sep 9 05:30:00 srv2 slapd[9413]: do_syncrep2: rid=001 LDAP_RES_INTERMEDIATE - SYNC_ID_SET Sep 9 05:30:01 srv2 last message repeated 34 times Sep 9 05:30:01 srv2 slapd[9413]: syncrepl_entry: rid=001 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_ENTRY(LDAP_SYNC_ADD) Sep 9 05:30:01 srv2 slapd[9413]: syncrepl_entry: rid=001 be_search (0) Sep 9 05:30:01 srv2 slapd[9413]: syncrepl_entry: rid=001 ...

(0) ... During that time no errors or closes were logged in the srv2 syslog. I tried bouncing each slapd, but the issue continued. After about 2hrs it stopped occurring. My question is: What would cause the "Can't contact LDAP server message"? The srv1 side doesn't log any error or log that the connection was closed. The text "Can't contact" would seem to imply that the error occurred during a connection attempt, but these errors seemed to occur during a active conversation. Does the srv2 side notice an read or write error on the socket and abandon the connection? I've been looking through the code trying to determine what causes that error message. Does it happen on a single read/write error? Does it retry a few times? I hate to just say "Must be a network error" without some due diligence.

Need Help On Master-Master Replication Setup!!
by pradyumna dash 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

Hi, I would like to setup OpenLDAP Mater-Master replication, before that i would like to know something more about it, because i never implemented the same. Suppose i have 2 servers ldap1.example.com and ldap2.example.com I will configure M-M replication with LDAPS, in this scenario how my architecture should be? Do i need to keep it behind the loadbalancer or what are the steps to do it? How come the client will come to know if any of the server is down, it will talk to the other server, because in my ldap.conf file i will have a single URI/host entry pointing to one of the server and also how to create the certificate, do i need 2 individiual certificate 1 for ldap1 and 1 for ldap2? Please help me. Regards, Neo

Re:Slapd-meta stop at the first unreachable candidate
by Michel Gruau 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

I performed many new tests and provide below several new comments. I recall that of them concern the fact to perform an ldapsearch on the meta suffix while one URI is unrechable. 1/ When network-timeout is not set for the unreachable URI, then no entry is returned. Unless the URI becomes unreachable after the meta startup AND for the first request only. 2/ When network-timeout is set, then the meta always returns entries, but only from the URI which are above the unreachable URI is slapd.conf. 3/ When conn-ttl is set, the walk-around which is to perform a search below the root node in order to open the channel to the different URI, is not working. Channels are always lost after the ttl expire. 4/ I saw slightly different behaviours when the unrechable URI is the first one in slapd.conf. Most of my earlier tests were performed with an unreachable URI which is the second one in slapd.conf. 4/ Such behaviour concern the case in which the URI contains valid IP (I mean pingable) but the port is unreachable (remote ldap server is stopped or port in wrong). I mean : each time the connect error is returned very quickly from network layers. But there are other cases in which connect error is returned more slowly (for instance IP address is not "pingable" or IP address is a LB virtual IP address and the remote server is unreachable). In these later cases, the meta behaviour is greatly different. I mean the meta behaviour is quite normal and entries from all reachable URI are returned ... once the different timer have elapsed. However, this later case led me to several new problems described below. 5/ The timer which is taken into account for the connection is not the "network-timeout" parameter but the "timeout" parameter. According to the slapd-meta man page, this timeout is supposed to be intended for LDAP operations and not for the network connection step. 6/ The value of the "timeout" parameter is the only one which is taken into account, but ... only if the "network-timeout" parameter is set. In other cases, a default (and longer) timeout seems to be applied. The value of network-timeout remains meaningless, it has only to be set with any value. 7/ The "timeout" parameter which is used is not the parameter corresponding to the unreachable URI. After many tests, I discovered it is the maximum value among all "timeout" in the "database meta" section, whatever the URI is !!! Conclusions: all these parameters provide a really powerfull way to cutomize the configuration but few of them are working as excepted. Could anyone explain me whether I can provide all those details as a bug report ? Or should I wait that anyone could reproduce ? Thanks for all.

How to replace account with inetOrgPerson?
by Mi 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

I am trying to add the "inetOrgPerson" objectClass, but some users already have the "account" objectClass. After a long search, I found that you cannot have both. So I am trying to remove "account", and add "inetOrgPerson". But I cannot do that either. I just get the following error : err=69 text=structural object class modification from 'account' to 'inetOrgPerson' not allowed If I just try to remove "account", I get entry failed schema check: no structural object class provided So, how can I add "inetOrgPerson" and remove "account" ? Also, I notice that I don't have "account" listed under dn: cn=schema,cn=config. What I have is: {0}core {1}cosine {2}nis {3}inetorgperson {4}samba {5}apple Thanks for any help mi PS: I just need a "mail" attribute. Maybe there is a simpler way than to add inetOrgPerson with all it's ridiculous attributes like "audio" or "carLicense" ?

pcache template doesn't allow negative assertions?
by Ron Peterson 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

OpenLDAP version 2.4.23 Negative assertions don't appear to work in pcacheTemplate filter expressions. Is this intentional? line 435 (pcacheTemplate (!(globalOff=)) 0 900) /local/etc/openldap/proxy/slapd.conf: line 435: unable to parse template: AttributeDescription contains inappropriate characters. slaptest: bad configuration file! Works fine without the negative assertion. - Somewhat related question. I'm attempting to use pcache to expedite the application of a filter expression used in an ACL context (ldap backend). I haven't done this before. Does pcache work for this purpose? e.g. access to dn.sub="ou=email" filter="(!(globalOff=))" ... (this is a simplification of what I'm really doing, for illustrative purposes only). -- Ron Peterson Network & Systems Administrator Mount Holyoke College http://www.mtholyoke.edu/~rpeterso

Open LDAP Installation/Configuration Failed.

Hi,I think I fixed the Database related error during openldap configure step. I have downloaded the new DB "db-4.8.26" and I configured it for unix i.e build_unix. and compiled it successfully. after this I configured the openldap-2.4.26 successfully with the following command. ./configure --host=mips CC=/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc LD=/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-ld CFLAGS="-g -O2" CPPFLAGS="-I/product/wibro/premium/src/APP/Protocols/ASNGW/vijay/db-4.8.26/build_unix" --prefix=/mips/ldap --with-yielding_select=no after that I build teh dependencies successfully with the command "make depend" but when I compile I am getting the following error. /bin/sh ../../libtool  --mode=compile /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -g -O2 -I../../include -I../../include   -I/product/wibro/premium/src/APP/Protocols/ASNGW/vijay/db-4.8.26/build_unix   -DLBER_LIBRARY -c version.c /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -g -O2 -I../../include -I../../include -I/product/wibro/premium/src/APP/Protocols/ASNGW/vijay/db-4.8.26/build_unix -DLBER_LIBRARY -c version.c -o version.o/bin/sh ../../libtool  --mode=link /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -g -O2    -release 2.4 -version-info 9:1:7 -rpath /mips/ldap/lib -o liblber.la assert.lo decode.lo encode.lo io.lo bprint.lo debug.lo memory.lo options.lo sockbuf.lo stdio.lo version.lo  -lresolv rm -fr  .libs/liblber.a .libs/liblber.la .libs/liblber.laiar cru .libs/liblber.a  assert.o decode.o encode.o io.o bprint.o debug.o memory.o options.o sockbuf.o stdio.o version.oranlib .libs/liblber.acreating liblber.la(cd .libs && rm -f liblber.la && ln -s ../liblber.la liblber.la)/bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=link /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -static -g -O2     -o dtest dtest.o liblber.la ../../libraries/liblutil/liblutil.a  -lresolv  /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -g -O2 -o dtest dtest.o  ./.libs/liblber.a ../../libraries/liblutil/liblutil.a -lresolv./.libs/liblber.a: could not read symbols: Archive has no index; run ranlib to add onecollect2: ld returned 1 exit statusmake[2]: *** [dtest] Error 1make[2]: Leaving directory `/product/wibro/premium/src/APP/Protocols/ASNGW/openldap-2.4.26/libraries/liblber'make[1]: *** [all-common] Error 1make[1]: Leaving directory `/product/wibro/premium/src/APP/Protocols/ASNGW/openldap-2.4.26/libraries'make: *** [all-common] Error 1 I thought this is because I am compiling openldap for MIPS architecture and db-4.8.26 is compiled for normal linux.

Search queries with greater-than or smaller-than

Hello there, I am just starting with LDAP, but there is some basic thing that I do not understand and that does not make sense at all: I have got an OpenLDAP server and it does contain data. This search returns a bunch of results: ldapsearch -x -v -H ldap://localhost -b ou=something,dc=domainname,dc=com -LLL '(gidNumber=500)' Yet this returns no results: ldapsearch -x -v -H ldap://localhost -b ou=something,dc=domainname,dc=com -LLL '(gidNumber>=500)' So I invert it and this returns no results either: ldapsearch -x -v -H ldap://localhost -b ou=something,dc=domainname,dc=com -LLL '(!(gidNumber>=500))' This simply fails (okay, I knew that, but at least I know the ones above are not syntax errors, because the greater-sign alone is not defined as a filter in RFC 1960 nor RFC 4515): ldapsearch -x -v -H ldap://localhost -b ou=something,dc=domainname,dc=com -LLL '(gidNumber>499)' Can someone point me in the right direction, please? Thanks in advance, Tobias

I have removed the "-I/usr/include" and added "-I/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/include" in the configuration command. The command and options used for configuration is as follows. ./configure --host=mips CC=/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc LD=/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-ld CFLAGS="-g -O2 -I/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/include" LDFLAGS=-Bsharable --prefix=/mips/ldap --with-yielding_select=no The error which i got is  configure: error: BerkeleyDB version incompatible with BDB/HDB backends The erros observed in the config.log files are as follows. conftest.c:29:36: __FOO__/generate_error.h: No such file or directoryconfigure:12289: $? = 1configure: failed program was:| /* confdefs.h */| #define PACKAGE_NAME "" conftest.c:30:38: __ASCII__/generate_error.h: No such file or directory configure:14968: result: noconfigure:14992: checking to see if -lrpcrt4 is needed for win32 UUID supportconfigure:15013: /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/include  -Bsharable conftest.c  -lrpcrt4 >&5conftest.c:88: error: parse error before "UuidCreate"conftest.c:88: warning: data definition has no type or storage classconftest.c:89: error: parse error before "UuidToStringA"conftest.c:89: warning: data definition has no type or storage classconfigure:15013: $? = 1configure: failed program was:| /* confdefs.h */ configure:19126: checking for pthread_rwlock_destroy with <pthread.h>configure:19146: /opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/bin/mips_fp_be-gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/opt/montavista/pro/devkit/mips/fp_be/include  -Bsharable conftest.c  -pthread -lresolv  >&5conftest.c:106: error: parse error before "rwlock"conftest.c:106: warning: data definition has no type or storage class conftest.c:125: error: too many arguments to function `ctime_r'conftest.c:133: error: too few arguments to function `gethostbyname_r'conftest.c:136: error: too few arguments to function `gethostbyaddr_r' configure:20250: checking for db.hconfigure:20250: result: yesconfigure:20261: checking for Berkeley DB major version in db.hconfigure:20281: result: 3configure:20287: checking for Berkeley DB minor version in db.hconfigure:20307: result: 2configure:20313: checking if Berkeley DB version supported by BDB/HDB backendsconfigure:20349: result: noconfigure:20354: error: BerkeleyDB version incompatible with BDB/HDB backends I am not getting what is the exact problem. :(
