Re-engaging the Samba4 LDAP backend
by Andrew Bartlett 30 Mar '10

30 Mar '10

I'm trying to pick up the ball again on the OpenLDAP and Fedora DS backends, and hopefully to bring them back up to speed as a working and respectable solution. LDB will always be the Samba Team's primary backend for Samba4. This is particularly the case as there seems no reasonable prospect that we will do DRS replication against the OpenLDAP or FedoraDS backeed. (This simplifies the requirements dramatically). However, we do need them to work, as far as practical, for the rest of Samba4's DC functionality. The things I need soon from the backends are: - a replacement for the Samba4 rdn_name module. For OpenLDAP I have tried out ITS#6055 but it fails, sadly. http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Development?id=6055;selectid=6055 I don't know of any comparable effort in Fedora DS. - A RID allocation tool. Fedora DS has the 'distributed numeric assignment' plugin, and I'm sure it will be no challenge for OpenLDAP to match it. Safely adding new users to an OpenLDAP backend really does need a safe way to allocate RID values. - A way to invoke slpad -Ttest -f <config file> -F <config dir> without issuing errors because of the missing databases - Transaction support. While most of the transaction-aware tasks in Samba have now been either pushed off as 'too hard on LDAP' or into modules that are now in the LDAP backend, we still do need transactions over LDAP. - A way to easily detect that we have OpenLDAP or Fedora DS installed on the system, and what it's version is. Once we have that, we could start trying to run at least some of Samba4's tests against such a backend regularly (and stop breaking it so often). - Some help debugging the existing 'make test' failures! To address a broader range of use cases, I'm looking forward to the work Endi has promised for a 'ldap backend config file' as input to provision. Hopefully this will reduce the options we have to present to users on the provision command line. (Apologies in advance for the cross-post to multiple member-only lists, but I just wanted to get everyone on the same page).

ldap
by Shabbir Ahmed 30 Mar '10

hi, i am running a directory service which will hold about a million entries which is running openldap mean time, i m runnig a oracle DB which holds the same db for SQL clients and i store the same data in openldap as well for the client of directory services, now what i want is to run a single DB (oracle) and openldap should be able to access it from there or any other directory service, now i want a good suggestion from you people whether i should run Oracle Internet Directory and make changes in SQL db which is reflected in Directory. second option is to run ldap but compiled with oracle DB as backend besides BDB so the data is saved in one place and when ever directory client accesses it openldap fetches it from the oracle DB and replies to client. third option is that i run it as it is with duplicating data in both oracle db and openldap but i am only worried for the performance issues in future ill face. Ill be thank full for the help.

libldap mutex hang on ldap_int_sasl_mutex
by Jeremiah Martell 29 Mar '10

29 Mar '10

I'm using openldap-2.4.18, library libldap_r. I have three windows active directory servers setup: childA.parent.example.com parent.example.com childB.parent.example.com I do a LDAP+GSSAPI bind to childA.parent.example.com. The bind succeeds. I do a search that returns referrals, (I know I need to be referred to parent, and then childB in order to find my result), and I have openldap follow referrals for me. My rebind proc is a function that only calls: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s( ld, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, LDAP_SASL_AUTOMATIC, sasl_driver, params ); where sasl_driver and params is the same parameters that I used for the initial bind call to childA. After the seach call, the debug it looks like this: > ldap_chase_v3referrals, where ref[0] = parent.example.com > myGSSAPIrebindProc > ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s < ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s < myGSSAPIrebindProc < ldap_chase_v3referrals > ldap_chase_v3referrals, where ref[0] = childB.parent.example.com > myGSSAPIrebindProc > ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s > ldap_chase_v3referrals, where ref[0] = childA.parent.example.com < ldap_chase_v3referrals > ldap_chase_v3referrals, where ref[0] = ForestDnsZones.parent.example.com > myGSSAPIrebindProc > ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s ... HANG ON MUTEX Since this is hanging on a mutex, that would suggest a code bug. Perhaps the ldap_int_sasl_mutex needs to be a recursive mutex? Or should my rebind proc do something different than call ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s? Any other ideas appreciated too. Thanks, - Jeremiah

Where to start a migration from passwd/shadow/smbpasswd to openldap
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 29 Mar '10

29 Mar '10

Hi, a couple of weeks ago I started to learn ldap and set up some test servers with the latest openldap for centos 5.4. I learned about schemas, ldif, ldap browsers etc. So I have an advanced basic knowledge about the technical fundamentals. The primary goal is to have the login information for our mail and fileserver system in one place. Right now we do use sendmail, dovecot and samba. After testing some of the migration tools for migrating posix and sambaSam accounts, I was asking myselve: what is the best way to start the migration? Right now the directory is completely empty, so I can start from scratch. Both types of accounts do have different attributes and furthermore I'd like to use some inetOrgPerson/organizationalPerson attributes. So should I first run the smbldaptool or first fill the directory with the migrate_....sh script? Thanks for any suggestion or comment or pointing me to any how to/doc.
