syncrepl and glued databases
by Uwe Werler 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hello List, is it OK to glue a database via replication from different suffixes together? What I tried: syncrepl rid=010 provider=ldap://master01 searchbase="dc=example,dc=com" keepalive=300:5:5 retry="10 10 300 10 600 +" binddn="cn=syncuser,dc=example,dc=com" bindmethod=simple schemachecking=off credentials=secret scope=sub attrs="*,+" type=refreshAndPersist syncrepl rid=020 provider=ldap://master02 searchbase="ou=glue1" keepalive=300:5:5 retry="10 10 300 10 600 +" binddn="cn=syncuser,dc=example,dc=com" bindmethod=simple schemachecking=off credentials=secret scope=sub type=refreshAndPersist attrs="*,+" suffixmassage="ou=glue2,dc=example,dc=com" syncrepl rid=030 provider=ldap://master03 searchbase="ou=glue2" keepalive=300:5:5 retry="10 10 300 10 600 +" binddn="cn=syncuser,dc=example,dc=com" bindmethod=simple schemachecking=off credentials=secret scope=sub type=refreshAndPersist attrs="*,+" suffixmassage="ou=glue2,dc=example,dc=com" This seems to work. Is this OK? Or should I use the traditional way with subordinate and glued databases? Background: this replica should be the sync master for a bunch of other hosts. Thanks for any hint. Regards Uwe

ldappasswd gives error ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: No such attribute (16)
by Jeffrey Parker 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

I cannot seem to find anything helpful about this issue. I had it working before when I first setup OpenLDAP and I have not changed any settings since then. The only thing I can seem to find is suggestion saying to use -x when running ldappasswd. When I use -x I get the error below Result: Strong(er) authentication required (8) Additional info: only authenticated users may change passwords I am running OpenLDAP, I am not sure what version but it is somewhat new. It is running on Turnkey Linux (ubuntu 10.04 based) and is in a virtual machine.

Lazy ACLs and keeping your DIT as flat as possible
by Gavin Henry 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hi All, I'm pretty sure that this isn't possible, but wanted to check as my head hurts now. I have dynamic lists using slapo-dynlist with the Organization attribute of 'o' and I am trying to keep my DIT as flat as possible. I want to create an ACL that is "by group", which is fine. But....I don't want to hardcode a group. I want to "capture" o via a regex and use that in the "by group" like so: access to dn.subtree="ou=Users,dc=suretec,dc=co,dc=uk" attrs=o val.regex="(.+)" attrs=children,entry by group.expand="cn=$1,ou=Groups,dc=suretec,dc=co,dc=uk" read by self write or something like the following using a previous capture: access to filter=(&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(o=$1)) by group/groupOfURLs/memberURL.expand="cn=$1,ou=Groups,dc=suretec,dc=co,dc=uk" read by self write by * none Issue is you can't pass captures between "access by" statements and my ACLs are flawed based on what you're searching for, which would be perfect. The goal being users in the same group can only see users on ou=Users of that group, with out hard coding group name in the conf. I guess I'll have to create branches to split up users. Then again, I'm adding a group to ou=Groups, why shouldn't I at the same time add a new ACL via cn=config? Cheers. -- Kind Regards, Gavin Henry. Managing Director.

pass-through authentication and base64
by sergio 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Hello. Is it possible to ask openldap not to encode magic tokens for pass-through authentication? Now ldapsearch shows: userPassword:: e1NBU0x9dXNlcm5hbWVAcmVhbG0K== but I'd like to see: userPassword:: {SASL}username@realm instead. -- sergio.

delta-syncrepl stopped receiving changes
by David Hawes 15 Aug '12

15 Aug '12

My environment consists of 1 provider and 6 consumer machines using delta-syncrepl for replication. For some reason, one of the consumer machines stopped receiving changes for several days and did not resume syncing until a restart (SIGKILL). All machines are running 2.4.30 with BerkeleyDB 4.7.25 (plus patches), the hdb backend, and tcmalloc. I notice that 2.4.31 has several syncrepl fixes, and I intend to upgrade in the near future, but my issue seems different than the ITS issues listed in the change log. I'm posting here to determine if this has been fixed or if I need to create a new ITS issue. When I noticed one of the machines was not syncing properly I first ensured that I could still query it. When I verified that, I decided to change the LogLevel to 'any' to make sure I wasn't missing any logs that would help me figure out what the issue was. Unfortunately, this LDAP modify caused OpenLDAP to hang. The operation never finished, and new queries using ldapsearch would simply hang as well. At this point I got a gdb backtrace and db_stat from BDB. db_stat -c: ===== Default locking region information: 640 Last allocated locker ID 0x7fffffff Current maximum unused locker ID 9 Number of lock modes 3000 Maximum number of locks possible 1500 Maximum number of lockers possible 1500 Maximum number of lock objects possible 80 Number of lock object partitions 47 Number of current locks 1262 Maximum number of locks at any one time 19 Maximum number of locks in any one bucket 0 Maximum number of locks stolen by for an empty partition 0 Maximum number of locks stolen for any one partition 340 Number of current lockers 341 Maximum number of lockers at any one time 44 Number of current lock objects 683 Maximum number of lock objects at any one time 6 Maximum number of lock objects in any one bucket 0 Maximum number of objects stolen by for an empty partition 0 Maximum number of objects stolen for any one partition 3799M Total number of locks requested (3799770221) 3799M Total number of locks released (3799714045) 0 Total number of locks upgraded 73 Total number of locks downgraded 73M Lock requests not available due to conflicts, for which we waited (73026840) 5165 Lock requests not available due to conflicts, for which we did not wait 50963 Number of deadlocks 0 Lock timeout value 0 Number of locks that have timed out 0 Transaction timeout value 0 Number of transactions that have timed out 1MB 400KB The size of the lock region 70M The number of partition locks that required waiting (1%) 15M The maximum number of times any partition lock was waited for (0%) 15018 The number of object queue operations that required waiting (0%) 54M The number of locker allocations that required waiting (2%) 0 The number of region locks that required waiting (0%) 6 Maximum hash bucket length ===== The number of deadlocks was pretty shocking; I've never seen that value non-zero.

write an acl with sets and compare connecting peername.ip with ipHost entry (ipHostNumber)
by Uwe Werler 15 Aug '12

15 Aug '12

Hallo all, is it possible to write an ACL (with sets) which extracts the peername.ip from within an existing entry of ipHost an then compares the connecting peername.ip? My idea is to only allow access to this entry by connecting peername.ip 192.168.1.1: dn: cn=myhost.wdf.sap.corp,ou=HOSTS objectClass: ipHost objectClass: device cn: myhost.wdf.sap.corp ipHostNumber: 192.168.1.1 Background: I want to use ovleray nssov and therefore I need all host information at each host locally in ldap. 'cause we have several thousands of hosts I dont want to replicate all ipHosts to each local database. Thanks for any advice/hint. Regards Uwe

OpenLDAP and virtual directory
by Gilles Tual 14 Aug '12

14 Aug '12

Hi, I was wondering if I could use OpenLDAP backend to simulate a virtual directory for a project. Is it possible ? If yes, is there documentation on it, or help (i'm not a pro on LDAP and virtual directory). Thanks a lot, have a nice day !
