Problem with "force user to password reset at first login
by Rajagopal Rc
Hi,
I am trying to force users to change their password at first login or
after
password reset by administrator.
Tried following:
1)Password policy 'pwdMustChange TRUE' doesn't seems to be working as non
of the
users get prompt to change their password at first login.
2) used the 'pwdReset TRUE' attribute in users attributes, and it won't
prompt
to change the password and didn't allow to login
i observe below messages in log
"slapd[12684]: connection restricted to password changing only
slapd[12684]: send_ldap_result: err=50 matched="" text="Operations are
restricted to bind/unbind/abandon/StartTLS/modify password"
slapd[12684]: conn=1053 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101 err=50 nentries=0
text=Operations are restricted to bind/unbind/abandon/StartTLS/modify
password"
Please help me configure the option to force all users to change their
password
at first login or after pwd reset by administrator.
Thanks & Regards
Raj

Index seems to return wrong amount of candidate causing really poor search performance
by chrichardso27＠gmail.com
Hi,
Considering the following assumptions;
- OpenLDAP version 2.4.51
- attributes objectClass and abc are indexed based on equality
- the EQUALITY of attribute abc is based on distinguishedNameMatch
- The database contains roughly 2 million entries
- 2 entries have defined the attribute abc with a dn value cn=foo,dc=bar and objectClass=someClass
- 2 entries have defined the attribute abc with a dn value cn=bar,dc=baz and objectClass=someClass
Now, the issue started with really slow search performance using objectClass=someClass & abc=cn=foo,dc=bar as filter criteria. Debugging a while seems to indicate that the objectClass filter returns roughly 2 million entries as candidates. Now, one would expect that the second filter would return only the 2 potential candidates from the abc index, or a subset of the whole database but this is not the case. The second filter also returns nearly the whole database entries as potential candidates and causes really slow query performance. Interestingly, this only occurs when attribute abc has value cn=foo,dc=bar, but for some reason for the entry having attribute abc with value cn=bar,dc=baz the query returns immediately. In both cases, the actual entries matching the search return immediately but for the problematic search "(&(objectClass=someClass)(abc=cn=foo,dc=bar))", the completion of the search takes a long time (around 15 seconds to be precise).
The issue started suddenly and wasn't a degradation of query performance over time.
Few things I have tried
- Rebuilt the whole database again
- Reindex the existing database again
- Testing with bdb and mdb as backends
- Increased cache sizes for bdb to hold the whole database in cache
- For bdb adjust the page size of the indexes according to suggestion by db_tuner
- Change the order of the filters
None of these made any difference. At the moment, there does not seem to be any good options to try. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!

Best way two update a full OpenLDAP database from LDIF file
by Prunk Dump
Hello !
My network infrastructure uses some special database not compatible
with LDAP. But I need an OpenLDAP server to administer my Web Services
accounts on my DMZ.
So I have written a script to export our "special" database to an LDIF
file. This works pretty well. I've successfully loaded it on my
OpenLDAP server.
But now I don't know how to update my OpenLDAP database from the new
generated LDIF files (when users are added, updated or removed)
without disturbing the whole LDAP service (it's not a very good idea
to delete the entire database and recreate it from the new LDIF file
as it stop the service completely during the operation).
Is there a way to update an OpenLDAP database to fit a new given LDIF file ?
-> Updating/deleting the OUs
-> Deleting the objects that are not present.
-> Deleting the attributes removed.
-> Updating the attributes that have changed without deleting the object.
Doing this step by step to disturb as little as possible the OpenLDAP service.
Thanks for the help.
Regards,
Baptiste.

Unable to bind with LDAP DN having encoded chars
by radiatejava
I am using openldap client library 2.4.44 on Centos 7.3, LDAP v3
setting. I am having an issue with LDAP bind when the DN has encoded
representation of special characters like é (e acute). Actual DN is
CN=mithun,OU=Groupes de Sécurité,DC=mytest,DC=net and when it is sent
by the app (frontend) to our backend, it is coming as
CN=mithun,OU=Groupes de S\u00e9curit\u00e9,DC=insaaadev,DC=net.
Basically, é comes encoded as \u00e9 which is as per the encoding
mentioned here https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/e9/index.htm
To further try out, I directly hardcoded the DN to
CN=mithun,OU=Groupes de S\u00e9curit\u00e9,DC=mytest,DC=net and that
worked fine. I want to understand why it fails when the DN in the same
format comes from the frontend app. Appreciate your help, thanks.

I am running OpenLDAP 2.4.47 on Debian 10 for a while and now I enabled
the overlay for memberOf. Is there any good option for backup and
restore, because slapcat and slapadd aren't working.

OpenLDAP proxy to AD with client certificates
by David Cunningham
Hello,
I would like to configure slaps.conf to proxy requests to an AD server.
1.) I want SLAPD to always connect to this AD server as a specific user
2.) I want SLAPD to run all queries including searches against this AD server using the defined user.
3.) I want clients connecting to SLAPD to query AD to be authenticated by revokable client certificate only. If the connecting client has a valid certificate that matches a CA, then it’s LDAP query is allowed and proxied to Active Directory.
4.) The client should also be able to rebind as user after doing a user DN search (to verify username/password).
Does that make sense?

How to set credential to ldap_gssapi_bind_s?
by Árpád Nagy
Hello,
I try to bind to LDAP server using GSSAPI.
I try to use ldap_gssapi_bind_s method (gssapi.c):
int
ldap_gssapi_bind_s(
LDAP *ld,
LDAP_CONST char *dn,
LDAP_CONST char *creds )
{
if ( dn != NULL ) {
return LDAP_NOT_SUPPORTED;
}
if ( creds != NULL ) {
return LDAP_NOT_SUPPORTED;
}
return ldap_int_gss_spnego_bind_s(ld);
}
According this it is executed only if 'dn' and 'creds' is NULL.
My question is how can I set the user name and password which I want to
authenticate on LDAP server?

Syncprov shows issue with entry
by Nick Milas
Hello,
I would like to ask you for your guidance regarding the following.
We have an openldap (v2.4.56) master server syncing with three other
openldap slaves.
The master seems being unable to complete successfully syncing a
particular entry and it keeps trying for ever. Logs follow.
I have realized this only now, but it seems that this is happening for
long. (It is recorded in all the logs I have available.)
What is the suggested way to resolve this situation?
