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

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

Cannot remove LDAP entry ...
by Frank Bonnet 03 Jul '12

03 Jul '12

Hello I have a problem removing ONE ( and only ONE !!! ) entry in my directory server ldapdelete fails like the following ldap_delete: Other (e.g., implementation specific) error (80) additional info: entry index delete failed I've checked online openldap documentation and this error refers to a access rights problem, but it is not the case for my server , all db files belong to ldap:ldap which is the identity the slapd deamon runs on. the server runs 2.4.23 version on a FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p5 compiled and installed from ports. ldap# /usr/local/libexec/slapd -V @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.23 (Oct 15 2010 16:35:06) $ root@ldap3.esiee.fr:/usr/ports/net/openldap24-server/work/openldap-2.4.23/servers/slapd Any help welcome thank you

bug in unique overlay
by Anton Yuzhaninov 03 Jul '12

03 Jul '12

According to slapo-unique(5) it is possible to specify several URLs in one domain (in single unique_uri dircetive). I have in my slapd.conf settings like: unique_uri ldap:///ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias) ldap:///ou=aliases,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias) But in OpenLDAP 2.4.31 all URLs except first one is silently ignored. Debug logs show: 4ff309e3 line 208 (unique_uri ldap:///ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias) ldap:///ou=aliases,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias)) 4ff309e3 ==> unique_new_domain <ldap:///ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias)> ldap_url_parse_ext(ldap:///ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo?cn?sub?(objectClass=nisMailAlias)) 4ff309e3 >>> dnPrettyNormal: <ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo> 4ff309e3 <<< dnPrettyNormal: <ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo>, <ou=lists,dc=example.ru,ou=mail,o=foo> Prblem is around this code in servers/slapd/overlays/unique.c: if ( c->line ) rc = unique_new_domain ( &domain, c->line, c ); else rc = unique_new_domain ( &domain, c->argv[1], c ); c->line is empty by some reason. c->argv[1] contains only first URL. Is anybody know how to fix this bug? Is it normal, that c->line is empty? -- Anton Yuzhaninov

chaining and returning errors
by Frank Van Damme 29 Jun '12

29 Jun '12

List, I'm setting up chaining. And I want to get errors, no referrals :) my olcDatabase looks like this: olcDatabase={0}ldap,olcOverlay={1}chain,olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config objectClass: olcChainDatabase (auxiliary) objectClass: olcConfig (abstract) objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig (structural) objectClass: olcLDAPConfig (structural) objectClass: top (abstract) olcDatabase: {0}ldap olcDbIDAssertBind: bindmethod="simple" binddn="uid=lalalala" credentials="foo" mode="self" olcDbURI: ldap://example.com here is this object's parent: olcOverlay={1}chain,olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config objectClass: olcConfig (abstract) objectClass: olcOverlayConfig (structural) objectClass: top (abstract) olcOverlay: {1}chain The problem is that I can't insert an olcChainReturnError attribute into it. The schema doesn't allow it. I tried to add the olcChainConfig objectClass to the olcDatabase={1} object, which requires me to fill in an extra attribute "olcOverlay" - I tried {1}chain and "chain" and "{0}ldap" but either give me an error 65 "invalid structural object class chain". -- Frank Van Damme No part of this copyright message may be reproduced, read or seen, dead or alive or by any means, including but not limited to telepathy without the benevolence of the author.
