No object has been found error message
by Darouichi, Aziz 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Hi all, Friday last week before I left for the week end LDAP was working fine with no problems. This morning When I tried to do an ldapsearch, I get error no such object (32) error. I checked ldap services and they are running fine. Plus I have a script that sends emails and restarts ldap services if there is a problem on the week end or a night. No emails were generated and no changes have been made. FY this is openldap-2.3.43-12.el5_5.2 Thanks, Aziz

AIX as openldap client
by Stef Coene 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Hi, Some time ago, I configured an ubuntu intrepid as openldap server and I was able to use it as authentication server for AIX 6.1. I tried the same with an ubuntu maverick server, but I can not get it working anymore. I can see all the user information on the AIX server. I can do 'su - <user>' to become the user. But I can not login so I think there is a problem with the password. When I change the password of a user on the AIX server, I get these errors in the logfile on the openldap server: Oct 26 20:44:12 ldap1 slapd[28664]: Entry (uid=xxx,ou=people,dc=xxx,dc=xxx), attribute 'shadowLastChange' not allowed Oct 26 20:44:12 ldap1 slapd[28664]: entry failed schema check: attribute 'shadowLastChange' not allowed Is this important? The intrepid has version 2.4.11-0ubuntu6.2, the maverick has version 2.4.21-0ubuntu5.3. I didn't noted down what I did on the intrepid server, but I can remember that it asked a bunch of questions when I installed slapd. These initial steps are removed from the maverick version. I also remember using the ldapinit command. How can I debug the difference between these 2 versions? Using slapcat, I can see some differeces, but nothing that is important in my opinion. How can I debug the openldap server to see what's going on? I can use the openldap server on a linux ldap client without problems. Stef PS I also tried to post this message to openldap-software(a)openldap.org, but I got a 'Delivery status notification' saying that the user does not exist.

Performance issues lately.

Hello list, Solaris 10u8 db-4.8.30.NC openldap-2.4.23 So in the last week, simple queries have been really slow. For example: # time /usr/local/bin/ldapsearch -h 0 -D cn=admin,dc=company,dc=com -x -w pass -b ou=mail,dc=company,dc=com mail=testlookup(a)domain.com 1m21s Of course "mail" in indexed. The server is dedicated to LDAP (test server) so there are no other connections. Not even syncrepl connection. I have checked the usual things, memory usage, BDB cache, and disk IO. All seem to be within reasonable limits. Then I went deeper. I started trussing it, and it seems to send the query reply nearly right away, then sit around 200 seconds before we send a few more bytes and exit. I tried out db_stat on various db, and found it is also really slow on stat on "id2entry.bdb". For example: # time /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.8/bin/db_stat -d id2entry.bdb 2m32s So, trussing that call (including all calls in libdb-4.2): 19700/1@1: 0.0001 -> libdb-4.8:__db_stat_print_pp(0x419920, 0x0, 0x412c30, 0x4146a0, 0xfffffd7fffdff880, 0xfffffd7fffdff824) 19700/1: 0.0009 time() = 128972 5450 19700/1: 0.0001 brk(0x0041EC20) = 0 19700/1: 0.0001 brk(0x00422C20) = 0 19700/1: 0.0001 open("/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/Japan", O_RDONLY) = 4 19700/1: 0.0000 fstat(4, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDFF880) = 0 19700/1: 0.0001 read(4, 0xFFFFFD7FFEEA0880, 125) = 125 19700/1: T Z i f\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\003\0\0\003\0\0\0 \0 19700/1: \0\0\0\t\0\0\003\0\0\0\fC3CE85 pD7 >1E90D7EC1680D8F91690D9CBF8 80 19700/1: DB071D10DBABDA80DCE6FF10DD8BBC80020102010201020102\0\0 ~90\0\0 \0 19700/1: \08CA00104\0\0 ~90\0\b C J T\0 J D T\0 J S T\0\0\0\0\0\0\0 19700/1: 0.0000 close(4) = 0 19700/1: 0.0002 ioctl(1, TCGETA, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDFE8B0) = 0 19700/1: 0.0000 fstat(1, 0xFFFFFD7FFFDFE840) = 0 19700/1: 0.0001 write(1, 0xFFFFFD7FFF006764, 36) = 36 19700/1: S u n N o v 1 4 1 8 : 0 4 : 1 0 2 0 1 0\t L o c a l t 19700/1: i m e\n 19700/1: 589.8794 write(1, 0xFFFFFD7FFF006764, 25) = 25 19700/1: 5 3 1 6 2\t B t r e e m a g i c n u m b e r\n 19700/1: 0.0046 write(1, 0xFFFFFD7FFF006764, 23) = 23 Not entirely sure why a write (everything leading up) to stdout takes 589 seconds.

Chaining not working
by Jaap Winius 14 Nov '10

14 Nov '10

Hi folks, While testing the current Debian squeeze version of OpenLDAP, v2.4.23-6, in a provider/consumer syncprov/syncrepl (refreshAndPersist) configuration, using a patch(1) written by Pierangelo, I have not been able to get chaining to work. The consumer, ldaps2, was configured with a referral(2) to the provider, ldaps1, as well as a chaining configuration(3). A couple of authzTo rules(4) were added to its entry in the DIT, which immediately replicated to the consumer, and the provider was configured with an olcAuthzPolicy directive for "to"(5). So far, so good. However, when using ldapmodify on the consumer to test that an entry in the DIT could actually be modified (the description attr of the consumer's entry) from there as a result, I got this response: ------------------------------------------------------------ modifying entry "cn=ldaps2,dc=example,dc=com" ldap_modify: Referral (10) referrals: ldap://ldaps.example.com/cn=ldaps2,dc=example,dc=com ------------------------------------------------------------ I know ldapmodify doesn't understand referrals; this is where chaining should have worked instead. So, I removed the referral from the consumer's configuration to see what would then happen with the same command: ------------------------------------------------------------ modifying entry "cn=ldaps2,dc=example,dc=com" ldap_modify: Server is unwilling to perform (53) additional info: shadow context; no update referral ------------------------------------------------------------ (shadow context?). In both cases, this shows up in the syslog as a result: ------------------------------------------------------------ Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 fd=19 ACCEPT from IP=127.0.1.1:43982 (IP=0.0.0.0:389) Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=0 BIND dn="cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" method=128 Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=0 BIND dn="cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com" mech=SIMPLE ssf=0 Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text= Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=1 MOD dn="cn=ldaps2,dc=example,dc=com" Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=1 MOD attr=description Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=1 RESULT tag=103 err=53 text=shadow context; no update referral Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 op=2 UNBIND Nov 12 00:48:54 ldaps2 slapd[23862]: conn=1002 fd=19 closed ------------------------------------------------------------ Have I made a mistake somewhere, or could this be another bug?

Out of memory Errors when starting up Slurpd: Openldap-server-2.3.43
by Traiano Welcome 13 Nov '10

13 Nov '10

Hi List We're using openldap-server 2.3.43 on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p9 #0. When trying to start up slurpd (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/slurpd start), slurpd runs for a while then dies at various points during it's replication with error "Out of memory". The following are various attempts to start slurpd, with the last messages it dies with before "Out of Memory". My question is: Is this a known bug? What could be the cause of these out of memory errors in Slurpd? Test one: --- Initializing session to ldap://server.ops.aanet.co.za:389 Error: ldap_initialize(0, ldap://server.ops.aanet.co.za:389) failed: Out of memory --- Test two: --- malloc of 3 bytes failed Error: ldap_modify_s failed modifying DN "uid=sherbert.buth,ou=mycast.co.za,ou=AuthSystem,dc=za,dc=oo,dc=com": Out of memory --- Test three: ---- Error: ldap operation failed, data written to "/var/db/openldap-slurp/replica/server.ops.aanet.co.za:389.rej" ---- Test four: --- Error: ldap_modify_s failed modifying DN "uid=bruce,ou=fatnet.co.za,ou=AuthSystem,dc=za,dc=uu,dc=net": Out of memory --- Test 5: --- Error: ldap operation failed, data written to "/var/db/openldap-slurp/replica/server.ops.aanet.co.za:389.rej" --- Test 6: --- ldif_parse_line: type malloc failed Error: malformed replog line "replace: sn" Warning: freeing re (dn: uid=dericks,ou=anb.co.za,ou=AuthSystem,dc=za,dc=uu,dc=net) with nonzero refcnt error: malformed replog entry (begins with "replica: server.ops.aanet.co.za:389") Error: ldap_modify_s failed modifying DN "uid=tyrone,ou=business.net,ou=AuthSystem,dc=za,dc=,dc=net": Out of memory Error: ldap operation failed, data written to "/var/db/openldap-slurp/replica/server.ops.aanet.co.za:389.rej" ldif_parse_line: value malloc failed Error: malformed replog line "olcPasswordHash: 92XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" Warning: freeing re (dn: uid=adi,ou=anb.co.za,ou=AuthSystem,dc=za,dc=oo,dc=net) with nonzero refcnt error: malformed replog entry (begins with "replica: server.ops.aanet.co.za:389") malloc of 12 bytes failed malloc of 8 bytes failed --- Thanks in Advance, Traiano Welcome

Assigning a Member to Multiple Groups
by Anton Chu 12 Nov '10

Unfortunately there's can only be one GID number per user entry into the DIT, how can I assign multiple groups to one user? So when that user logs into a server, he or she will have multiple group IDs.

How to convert Solaris m5 passwords to LDAP?
by Christian Schmidt 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Hi all, we want to switch a server machine from Solaris (credentials stored in "traditional" passwd and shadow file) to Debian with OpenLDAP for authentication. Creating LDIF files from /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow using PADL's migrationtools is working fine. The only problem is, that many user passwords on the Solaris machine have been encrypted using Sun's md5 scheme which results in hashes beginning with the characters "$md5$". These hashes can be "imported" into our LDAP directory, but they cannot be used for authentication: Each attempt results in "access denied" on the client side and LDAP bind errors on the server side. Even when adding the user information to /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow on the Linux machine, there's no success. With CRYPT password hashes, everything works fine. Do you know any means to "convert" these Solaris-md5-hashed password strings into something we can use with OpenLDAP? I appreciate your helpful answers. Thanks in advance! Gruss/Regards, Christian Schmidt -- You have an ability to sense and know higher truth.

Syncrepl from OSX slapd to Centos5 slapd
by Markku Tavasti 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Hi! We have OSX as primary ldap server (slapd 2.3.27). Schema is OSX tuned schema, with Apple provided extensions. I'm trying to set up backup-ldap to Centos5 server (slapd 2.3.43). I have copied schemas from OSX /etc/openldap/schema, and edited & commented out attributetype 'authAuthority' definition from apple.schema. OSX is running with configuration from cn=config, so how I can check if schema it uses is 100% same as in schema files? Here is my syncrepl config on client side: syncrepl rid=23 provider=ldap://xxxx.domain.com type=refreshOnly interval=00:00:10:00 retry="60 10 300 +" searchbase="dc=xxxx,dc=domain,dc=com" scope=sub schemachecking=off bindmethod=simple binddn="uid=replicator,cn=users,dc=xxxx,dc=domain,dc=com" credentials=secret Client-slapd starts ok, and replication gets only one entry: # xxxx, computers, xxxx.domain.com dn: cn=xxxx,cn=computers,dc=xxxx,dc=domain,dc=com To log on client side I get only these: Nov 11 05:31:46 xxxx slapd[13962]: do_syncrep2: rid 023 LDAP_RES_SEARCH_RESULT Nov 11 05:41:46 xxxx slapd[13962]: daemon: epoll: listen=7 active_threads=0 tvp =zero Nov 11 05:41:46 xxxx slapd[13962]: daemon: epoll: listen=8 active_threads=0 tvp =zero Any ideas what is problem? -- M.

Trying to understand an error message
by Khaled Blah 12 Nov '10

Hello all, I have written an application which uses OpenLDAP and I keep receiving this error message: "sasl.c:75: ldap_sasl_bind: Assertion `( (ld)->ld_options.ldo_valid == 0x2 )' failed." The code at this position says the following: "assert( LDAP_VALID( ld ) );" My application creates LDAP structures (using ldap_init) and re-uses these structures whenever possible so that the least number of LDAP binds have to done. Is there anything I need to do after an LDAP operation has finished or maybe do I have to unbind at some point to make sure the LDAP structure remains in a valid state? I would be happy to receive any insight into this. Regards, Khaled
