pplolicy lockout grace time?
by Emmanuel Dreyfus 21 May '14

21 May '14

Hello We ran into the following problem: someone changes its password, but has a few devices with the old password recorderd. Before the user has time to update stored passwords, an buggy-client hammers servers with requests using the old password, and get the account locked by slapo-ppolicy. Perhaps there could be a setting in pwdPolicy or in slapd.conf so that there is a grace time after a password reset? For instance, the admin could configure that slapo-ppolicy should not lock a user if password has been changed less than X seconds ago. Opinions? -- Emmanuel Dreyfus manu(a)netbsd.org

OpenLDAP-2.4.23 on SUSE 11
by Mulligan, Scott 20 May '14

20 May '14

I am running openldap-2.4.23 on SUSE 10 with no problems. After upgrading to SUSE 11, I cannot start slapd. I get an error that it can't find libltdl.so.3. I noticed that libltdl.so.7 is in /usr/lib64. My question is: Will openldap-2.4.23 work with libltdl.so.7 or do I need to upgrade openldap to run on SUSE 11? Can I install a version of libltdl.so.3 on SUSE 11 and get it to work? Are there any other options? Thanks for any suggestions. I haven't been able to find anything about this for days.

Host Based OpenLDAP Authentication On Mac OS X Mountain Lion
by Amit More 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hello All, I'm sorry if this is the wrong group to post such a question. I have openldap (slapd version 2.4.31-1+nmu2ubuntu8) running on Ubuntu Server 14.04. The 'hostObject' objectClass is added in the OpenLDAP directory. The 'host' attribute is added under all ldap users, which allows users to access just those particular hosts. Apple schema has been added as well. I have a ubuntu client that authenticates users against the ldap server. The ubuntu client is configured to perform host-based authentication via pam modules. Only users that have access to the Ubuntu client can login, and others are denied access. I also have a Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5) client that authenticates users against the same openldap server. All network users can login through the login window. I would like to restrict access to the Mountain Lion client based on hosts, as I've it on the Ubuntu client. I tried to search for documentation on this, but didn't find any good one. Most of the documentation suggest that network user access be controlled on the Mountain Lion client. I'd really like to have that control on ldap server and not on client. Also, restricting network user access using 'Users & Groups' settings in System Preferences fails. All ldap users are blocked from login. I have successfully tested host-based authentication on a Ubuntu Server 10.04 client that is connected to the same ldap server. So, I know host based authentication works. I would really appreciate if anyone could shed some light on this, or point me to a document that talks about host-based authentication on Mac OS X Mountain Lion client. Thanks, Amit

Close sometime takes a long time
by Venkat Murty 19 May '14

Why does close sometime take a long time? mdb_env_close (in sync7320902242508427276.so) + 69 [0x112e37d35] mdb_env_close0 (in sync7320902242508427276.so) + 248 [0x112e37948] close (in libsystem_kernel.dylib) + 10 [0x7fff8bf900c2] Usually, happens when I have killed the process the last time. System: Mac OS X Thanks, Venkat Murty

slapcat -c problem
by David Spurek 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hi, slapcat -c doesn't work as I expect in one case. It should ignore errors. I have following slapd.conf with 2 suffixies, only the second one (dc=my-domain,dc=com) is filled with data: cat slapd.conf include /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema allow bind_v2 pidfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.pid argsfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.args database bdb suffix dc=example,dc=com rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" rootpw x directory /var/lib/ldap/ database bdb suffix dc=my-domain,dc=com rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com" rootpw x directory /tmp/tmp.lfFaOlWyes/ldap-test-ldap2 [test]slapcat 537223f1 bdb_db_open: warning - no DB_CONFIG file found in directory /var/lib/ldap/: (2). Expect poor performance for suffix "dc=example,dc=com". 537223f1 bdb_db_open: database "dc=example,dc=com": db_open(/var/lib/ldap//id2entry.bdb) failed: No such file or directory (2). 537223f1 backend_startup_one (type=bdb, suffix="dc=example,dc=com"): bi_db_open failed! (2) slap_startup failed 'slapcat -c' gives me the same output. I expect that it will ignore errors with the first database and dumps the database for second suffix. Should slapcat -c skip error in this case? Tested with openldap-2.4.39 -- David Spurek

Multiple ou entries are added
by David Spurek 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hi, If I add following ldif with slapadd(attribute 'ou' and 'ou' in dn: are different): dn: ou=testou.auto,dc=my-domain,dc=com ou: testou.misc objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalUnit Slapadd doesn't evalute it as an error in ldif but it adds 'ou' from dn as another attribute. Added entry then looks like: # testou.auto, my-domain.com dn: ou=testou.auto,dc=my-domain,dc=com ou: testou.misc ou: testou.auto objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalUnit Is this expected behavior or a bug?

Encryption storage mechanism SHA256 in OpenLDAP
by bris chik 19 May '14

19 May '14

Hi All We are using OpenLDAP 2.4.38 windows version as user store for our application. I need to configure encryption storage mechanish as SHA256 in openLDAP. I tried with changing #password-hash {CLEARTEXT} password-hash {SHA256} But it is not working. I mean after making this change password got saved in OpenLDAP as SHA256 but after that when I am authenticating using pwd through JNDI it cannot match with the stored one and it says incorrect credentials. FYI - I am just taking the plain text pwd as user is providing in login page and passing to openLDAP. My understanding is OpenLDAP will take the plaintext pwd and encrypt it to SHA256 and compare with its store. Please let me know if my understanding is wrong or anything extra I have to do here. I got one link for doing this in linux version but didn't get anything for windows version. http://www.openldap.org/devel//cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/contrib/slapd-modules/…<http://www.openldap.org/devel/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/contrib/slapd-modules/p…> Can anyone please help me on this?
