OpenLDAP: contextCSN check across mirrors
by rahul.manchanda＠bt.com 10 May '10

10 May '10

Hello, I have configured three mirrors and am using a python script (ldapSynchCheck.py) which check the sync status on retrieving the contextCSN from both Provider and consumer I tried deleting a tree from directory and checked what is the output of the script and can still see "All of them are in sync". I believe this is happening because contextCSN is not getting updated on the respective directories and hence it will showing all in sync. However sometimes I am getting below error and it seems one of the consumer changed its contextCSN while provider was synching the data and it also confirms that provider will not change the contextCSN until it completes the sync to the consumer. 2010-05-06 15:15:51,459 - ldapSynchCheck.py - INFO - Provider is: tardis03.nat.bt.com:389 2010-05-06 15:15:51,462 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Connecting to ldap://tardis03.nat.bt.com:389 2010-05-06 15:15:51,464 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - LDAP protocol version 3 2010-05-06 15:15:51,465 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Binding with o=BT 2010-05-06 15:15:51,469 - ldapSynchCheck.py - INFO - Checking if consumer tardis02.nat.bt.com:9011 is in SYNCH with provider 2010-05-06 15:15:51,470 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Connecting to ldap://tardis02.nat.bt.com:9011 2010-05-06 15:15:51,471 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - LDAP protocol version 3 2010-05-06 15:15:51,472 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Binding with o=BT 2010-05-06 15:15:51,475 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Retrieving Provider contextCSN 2010-05-06 15:15:51,482 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - contextCSN = 20100506141551.044268Z#000000#003#000000 2010-05-06 15:15:51,483 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Retrieving Consumer contextCSN 2010-05-06 15:15:51,513 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - contextCSN = 20100506141551.044268Z#000000#003#000000 2010-05-06 15:15:51,515 - ldapSynchCheck.py - INFO - Provider and consumer exactly in SYNCH 2010-05-06 15:15:51,516 - ldapSynchCheck.py - INFO - Checking if consumer tardis01.nat.bt.com:9022 is in SYNCH with provider 2010-05-06 15:15:51,517 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Connecting to ldap://tardis01.nat.bt.com:9022 2010-05-06 15:15:51,519 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - LDAP protocol version 3 2010-05-06 15:15:51,520 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Binding with o=BT 2010-05-06 15:15:51,523 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Retrieving Provider contextCSN 2010-05-06 15:15:51,525 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - contextCSN = 20100506141551.044268Z#000000#003#000000 2010-05-06 15:15:51,526 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - Retrieving Consumer contextCSN 2010-05-06 15:15:51,573 - ldapSynchCheck.py - DEBUG - contextCSN = 20100506141549.755004Z#000000#003#000000 <here it goes different> Traceback (most recent call last): File "./ldapSynchCheck.py", line 258, in <module> main() File "./ldapSynchCheck.py", line 253, in main is_insynch(ldapprov, ldapcons, options.basedn, options.threshold, logger) File "./ldapSynchCheck.py", line 188, in is_insynch delta = contextCSN_to_datetime(provcontextCSN) - contextCSN_to_datetime(conscontextCSN) File "./ldapSynchCheck.py", line 155, in contextCSN_to_datetime return datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(time.mktime(time.strptime(gentime,"%Y%m% d%H%M%S"))) File "/software/python/lib/python2.6/_strptime.py", line 454, in _strptime_time return _strptime(data_string, format)[0] File "/software/python/lib/python2.6/_strptime.py", line 328, in _strptime data_string[found.end():]) ValueError: unconverted data remains: .044268 As I know putting a frequent checkpoint will generate a large amount of checkpoint log file and will cause issues while database recovery during crash/corrupt situations.

Encrypting passwords
by Miha Krajnc 09 May '10

09 May '10

Greetings, some time ago i saw a command (i'm guessing from the ldap-utils package) that would encrypt text into one of the encryptions supported by openldap (md5, crypt etc...) anyone know what that command is? Thanks! -- Lep pozdrav, Miha Krajnc.

There is no missing index. The index is working correctly, it was simply asked to find a value that does not exist. There's nothing abnormal about that, there's nothing to fix.

I'd totally forgotten to reply-to-all: Arwin, You'd have to turn log levels up, and/or restrict usage to narrow that down (classic trouble shooting, to the rescue). Personally, I'd ask your staff to start with (devs and IT) and ask what's being done different, or if there are new users of LDAP. I can understand something being done that's 'new' or 'different' could very well be some snoop, but more likely the 'culprit' is going to be something 'ok'. Moving on... See when the events occur and (and perhaps who is authenticating)turn the log levels up during that time - that'll require a restart of slapd if your config is static files (now I really see the beauty of olconfig). Start with just logging auth, whether you find a link there or not, and if you need more detail, log the queries (shudder). Oh, and you'll need some 'spare' disk and cpu if this is a modestly used service. If you get to the latter part, you'll likely crush your box. And back again... Seriously, ask around. It'll likely be easier. This was all assuming that this was an established service - and if you've simply taken over an admin role, this could have been going on for a while and the final 'culprit' may simply be missing indexes.

Ummm...

testing bind result in slapi pluging
by Gianluigi Nigro 06 May '10

06 May '10

Hi, i'm writing a plugin for SLAPI_PLUGIN_POST_BIND_FN operation: int mia_init(Slapi_PBlock *pb) { ... ... If( slapi_pblock_set(pb, SLAPI_PLUGIN_POST_BIND_FN, (void *)mia_get) != 0) { slapi_log_error(SLAPI_LOG_PLUGIN, "mia_init", "error" ); return -1; } ... return 0; } int mia_get(Slapi_PBlock *pb) { ... int oprc = -1; ... if( slapi_pblock_get(pb, SLAPI_PLUGIN_OPRETURN, &oprc) != 0 ) { If ( oprc == 0 ) Do something else Do something else } ... } The slapi_pblock_get for SLAPI_PLUGIN_OPRETURN always return 0 even if the bind operation is failed (for example following an error 49 Invalid Credentials ). Is there a way to test if the bind operation is successful or failed ?

bdb_index_read: failed
by Arwin 06 May '10

06 May '10

Hi all, We are running 1 master server and a couple of slaves, all openldap-2.4 on Ubuntu 8.04 lts, syncrepl and cn=config configuration. The last couple of days we are getting a few of the following errors in the slapd logs: Apr 29 11:03:41 ldapsrvr-1 slapd[6112]: bdb_idl_fetch_key: [b49d1940] Apr 29 11:03:41 ldapsrvr-1 slapd[6112]: <= bdb_index_read: failed (-30990) Apr 29 11:03:41 ldapsrvr-1 slapd[6112]: <= bdb_equality_candidates: id=0, first=0, last=0 Apr 29 11:03:41 ldapsrvr-1 slapd[6112]: => bdb_equality_candidates (objectClass) Tried solving it by re-adding the index and running slapindex but the errors still remain. Everything seems to work ok though, replication works, we can add/edit entries and user authentication of accounts in the dit work just fine. Can anybody tell me if this (bdb_index_read: failed (-30990)) is something that needs to be fixed and if so, how? T.i.a. Arwin.
