selective services in an LDAP based CAS setup
by Joe Steeve 09 Jul '11

09 Jul '11

Hello all, We are using OpenLDAP to provide a common authentication back-end for mail, samba and a couple of web-applications. We want to selectively enable/disable services (mail, samba, etc.) for some users based on management policy. What is the best way to do it using LDAP? Regards, Joe -- .o. I'm a Free man.

limits
by Friedrich Locke 08 Jul '11

08 Jul '11

Hi, i have setted some limits in slapd.conf: limits dn.base="cn=ypldap,ou=appsrv,dc=ufv,dc=br" time=2048 size=16384 limits dn.one="ou=people,dc=ufv,dc=br" time=4 size=1 But my log shows: /etc/openldap/slapd.conf : line 80: deprecated "one" style "limits <pattern> <limits>" line; use "onelevel" instead. The error message is showed only for limits definition. My access rules uses "one" and i get no complains in the log file, why? Thanks in advance.

Simple Bind w/TLS without SASL/Kerberos possible to AD?
by David Mitton 08 Jul '11

08 Jul '11

I am trying to use OpenLDAP from an embedded Linux system to authenticate (PAM LDAP) against a Windows AD server. I must use TLS to secure this, but I would rather not use SASL or Kerberos if possible. I have been able to mock this up on a Centos system without TLS, and the PAM worked fine. When I turn on TLS, the Windows server handshakes the TLS but then has a problem with the first message. I am also working that side. I have walked through the handshake with s_client, and the connection is happy. I am now working with ldapsearch and trying things.... The first thing I notice is that it seems to try an SASL bind. Can I stop this? I'm not sure I have SASL actually installed on this system, and I'm not sure I want it in my target. Is this possible? from both the OpenLDAP client and/or Windows AD? Ideas on the correct alphabet soup to try this with ldapsearch would be appreciated. Thanks.

translucent proxy question
by Conger,Keith 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hi, Does anyone now if its possible to write changes through a translucent proxy to the back ldap server its in front of? Every time I try an add or remove it does it against the translucent database. The account I'm using exists on the back ldap server with the proper rights to modify attributes. After much searching I can't seem to find an answer. Thanks in Advance Keith -- Keith Conger

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Other (e.g., implementation specific ) error (80)
by Fabien COMBERNOUS 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

Hi There, I have an openldap master (hosted by server) and an openldap replica (hosted by replica). Authentication use SASL/GSSAPI with kerberos. On the master i get the following output : server:~ admin$ kinit root Please enter the password for root(a)SERVER.LAN: server:~ admin$ ldapsearch -b cn=mounts,dc=server,dc=lan SASL/GSSAPI authentication started ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Other (e.g., implementation specific ) error (80) On the replica all looks fine : replica:~ admin$ kinit root Please enter the password for root(a)SERVER.LAN: server:~ admin$ ldapsearch -b cn=mounts,dc=server,dc=lan SASL/GSSAPI authentication started SASL username: root(a)SERVER.LAN SASL SSF: 56 SASL data security layer installed. # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <cn=mounts,dc=server,dc=lan> with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL # etc ... I saw some thread on mailing list that say to take care of owner, groups and permissions of files krb5.keytab and database. All looks good in this side. Any other areas to check ?

rewrite answers from AD.
by Agent Smith 07 Jul '11

07 Jul '11

I have slapd configured to proxy off of AD and that is working fine but I need to rewrite the phone number part of the AD answer to read 9xxx-xxx-xxxx from the original answer of xxx-xxx-xxxx so that the IP phones can dial them by clicking on the ldap search results. an example would help. when I query the AD with ldapsearch I get this field telephoneNumber: xxx-xxx-xxxx what I need is that field to read 9xxx-xxx-xxxx The IP phones need that field to read 9xxx-xxx-xxxx before they can use it so I configured a proxy thinking I will use rwm-rewrite to reformat that answer but I am having a devil of a time trying to figure out how, there is an example on how to 'eat blanks' on a cn filed answer so that a field with name, last_name will read name,lastname but I can't even get that to work even when I copy/paste it right from the man page of slap-rwm here are relevent parts of slapd.conf, any suggestions? I compiled slapd with ./configure --enable-rewrite=yes --enable-rwm=yes --enable-ldap=yes --enable-syslog ; database ldap #uri "ldap://ldap.yyy.zzz.edu:389/OU=xxx,DC=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=edu"; uri "ldap://ldap.yyy.zzz.edu:389" lastmod off chase-referrals no suffix "DC=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=edu" acl-bind bindmethod=simple binddn="CN=Radius Ldap,OU=System Accounts,OU=MSIS,OU=Administration,OU=xxx,DC=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=edu" credentials="password" idassert-bind bindmethod=simple binddn="CN=Radius Ldap,OU=System Accounts,OU=MSIS,OU=Administration,OU=xxx,DC=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=edu" credentials="password" mode=self idassert-authzFrom "dn.regex:.*" access to dn.subtree="DC=yyy,DC=zzz,DC=edu" by * read # The last rwm-map line maps all other attributes to nothing. overlay rwm rwm-rewriteEngine on rwm-rewriteContext eatblanks #rwm-rewriteRule "(.+)2C (.+)" "$1\,$2" #rwm-rewriteRule "([^,]+), ([^,]+)" "$1,$2" rwm-rewriterule "(.*), (.*)" "$1,$2" #rwm-rewriterule "^(.*), (.*)$" "$1,$2" rwm-map attribute uid sAMAccountname #rwm-map attribute cn cn rwm-map attribute * *

Build a "fake" LDAP
by Joao Robertson Kramer Santana 06 Jul '11

06 Jul '11

Hi, I have an Oracle database table with usernames and their encryted passwords. I would like to build an LDAP Server only for authentication. It should communicate with the client, receive the username/password, and make the authentication using the Oracle database table. I just want the clients to expect ('think') they are 'talking' with a true LDAP Server, but in fact it's just an application (Java Servlet) that uses the LDAP protocol between the client/server for authentication. In other words, the client does not know what happens inside the server, and the server does not use a true LDAP infrastructure. Does anybody has an ideia of how can I implement it? Is it possible to use OpenLDAP to simulate the conversation between the server and a client? I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance. Jkramer
