Uniqueness constraint over multiple attributes
by Jan Beerden 06 Jul '12

06 Jul '12

Hello, Is there a way to have a unique constraint over multiple attributes? We have different attributes for the primary email address of a person, and for additional aliases, and we'd like to enforce global uniqueness in such a way that the primary email address for one person can not be used as an email alias for another person. The slapo-unique manpage doesn't make this very clear.

Anyone using ejabberd with OpenLDAP?
by Gavin Henry 06 Jul '12

06 Jul '12

HI all, Taking advantage of the technical list for once and the OpenLDAP "related" questions :-) Anyone messed with ejabberd and OpenLDAP? I'm looking for an XMPP server with the best LDAP support. ejabberd does auth, rosters and vcards but the ability to load a list of hosts/domains from LDAP like you can do with Exim etc. would rule. Any suggestions? -- http://www.suretecsystems.com/services/openldap/ http://www.surevoip.co.uk

consumer doesn't send search requests
by jimy 06 Jul '12

06 Jul '12

Hello, migrating from slurpd I try to setup syncrepl. I read the slapd.conf man page and http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html#LDAP%20Sync%20Replicat… to get it up and running but I can't even get the consumer to send search requests to the provider. tcpdump shows that the consumer doesn't even start to talk with the provider after startup and openldap -d 16384 doesn't give me a hint also. Can someone here point me to the right direction how to proceed please? My configs can be viewed here: provider config: http://58c.om.sl.pt consumer config: http://58c.oy.sl.pt I also gathered the logging output from slapd -d -1 but this are two ~1.5MB files and too big to paste them in pastebin. I'll happily email the files per request. thx jimy

Fwd: [Foswiki-discuss] Mass import advice from OpenLDAP project Faq-O-Matic to foswiki?
by Gavin Henry 05 Jul '12

05 Jul '12

I found this from last year I misplaced. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: lars.eik(a)gmail.com <lars.eik(a)gmail.com> Date: 3 May 2011 23:43 Subject: Re: [Foswiki-discuss] Mass import advice from OpenLDAP project Faq-O-Matic to foswiki? To: foswiki-discuss(a)lists.sourceforge.net Hi Gavin, I have only done some minor text hacking but here's some feedback anyways. THIS will help you. If you make out the structure between file names then you can script creation and set the relevant parameters, like 'topicparent' and get the breadcrumb right. That could be a start. Another way could be by using JQuery and doing import from 'GUI' in Foswiki. Prepare much the same structure as you would if using CLI and use your browser to do the 'save' script. This would let you preview etc (by INCLUDE url) and give som other options, like let other users do some import and quality checking. Your old pages have a structure where the meaningful info is in the first two tables. Maybe even only the first if you don't really need the Previous/Next bit. So the structure seem simple enough but I have not examined all of the FAQ's. Perhaps create a mapping table between the old '226.html' and new 'WhichVersionShouldIUse'. The new names can be created by removing the spaces and ' signs in the title so it would be a valid wikiname. You can override so it doesnt have to be tough. Another name scenario is LdapFaqAUTOINC0 where the AUTOINC0 will get next available nr, like LdapFaq38 etc.. table1, tbody row1, skip first td, row1, second td has a tags that are top, second, third, fourth level/category. row1, last b tag is the current document "name" or caption. Could be your page name (topic name) other tablerows are data/info ..and that's about all I had time for :) Jquery is really nice when doing stuff like html tags, children, find the 'b' tag etc. About text files, you can copy them all into a new 'test web' and rename them to .txt but and it will work butt will need heavy refactoring. If you take out the first table of each and saved at txt file it would be much easier.

So where are we? Wiki - no then? Or Wiki like dokuwiki which does plain text files, stick them in the back of a git repo, add some hooks to do commits so we can all work offline and use the Dokuwiki PDF exports? We just need something to look "new" :-) -- http://www.suretecsystems.com/services/openldap/ http://www.surevoip.co.uk

Ldap Replication Query
by Hanumanth Rao 05 Jul '12

05 Jul '12

Hello LDAP Brains, I have setup a Samba PDC (192.168.1.2) and a Samba BDC (192.168.4.2) both are on different subnets, there are two issues for me as below *PDC - SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64), VERSION = 11, PATCHLEVEL = 2, samba-3.6.3-0.18.3, openldap2-2.4.26-0.12.1 BDC - SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (i586) , VERSION = 10, samba-3.0.22-13.16, openldap2-2.3.19-18.7* 1. On the BDC if I give the command below I get Unable to find a suitable server BDC2:~ # net rpc info Unable to find a suitable server 2. I am not able to sync ldap database, BDC with the PDC I have enclosed my slapd.conf of PDC and BDC, can anybody let me know where I have gone wrong. Your help is highly appreciated, thanks in advance. Hanumanth Rao

SASL passthrough - multiple domains
by Liam Gretton 05 Jul '12

05 Jul '12

I have a working configuration with pass-through auth to an AD domain using saslauthd. However now there is a requirement to be able to handle another domain too, and I cannot work out how to do this. It seems that saslauthd cannot deal with multiple Kerberos realms, no matter what hoops one jumps through it eventually boils down to only using whatever 'default_realm' is set to in the krb5.conf file. Using multiple saslauthd daemons isn't possible either as there's no way (that I can work out) of getting OpenLDAP to use anything other than the single socket specified in /etc/sasl2/slapd.conf. My final idea was to run an LDAP instance per realm, each talking to the separate saslauthd daemons, and have another outward facing LDAP service with these as the backends but that's a non starter too because there's no way of specifying the sasl slapd.conf file, it seems sasl always looks in /etc/sasl2 for a file derived from the process name (a chroot environment for each LDAP server is therefore the next thing to look at). But this seems like a lot of work just to be able to authenticate users against multiple domains. I appreciate this is a SASL issue rather than a problem with OpenLDAP, but I'm hoping that someone here has cracked this already. Googling hasn't thrown up an solution that I can find. -- Liam Gretton liam.gretton(a)le.ac.uk HPC Architect http://www.le.ac.uk/its IT Services Tel: +44 (0)116 2522254 University of Leicester, University Road Leicestershire LE1 7RH, United Kingdom
