Hi, I am using Symas' OpenLDAP s/w on a solaris 10 box. The package I have installed is symas-openldap-silver-2.4.12.0.sun4u.pkg. # pkginfo -l symas-openldap-silver PKGINST: symas-openldap-silver NAME: Symas OpenLDAP Silver CATEGORY: application ARCH: sun4u VERSION: Dev Release 10/17/2008 BASEDIR: / PSTAMP: gamba20081017182137 INSTDATE: Dec 09 2008 16:36 STATUS: completely installed FILES: 279 installed pathnames 24 directories 72 executables 60155 blocks used (approx) I want to get syslogging from slapd out to a file. I have configured /etc/syslog.conf with the following lines: # LDAP logging local4.debug /var/log/slapd.log The file /var/log/slapd.log exists: # ls -l /var/log/slapd.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 10 09:25 /var/log/slapd.log and I have restarted syslog: # svcadm restart svc:/system/system-log In /opt/symas/etc/openldap/slapd.conf I have included a line: loglevel -1 and restarted my slapd server using: /opt/symas/etc/solserver restart Having done all this I am still not getting anything written out to /var/log/slapd.log.

Generally, the web application is part of the service which encompasses the web server and directory service.

If it is, where should I start? Would require cooperation between the web server and the directory server.

OpenLDAP locks
by Gaëtan Slongo 24 Jan '09

24 Jan '09

Hello all, I saw on a book that OpenLDAP locks parent entries when an entry is updating... It's true ? Example : If I'm updating "uid=username,ou=Users,dc=mydomain", "ou=Users,dc=mydomain" and all children will be locked (write lock?) while the update is performing ?? Thanks. -- Slongo Gaëtan Tel: +32 (0)65/84.23.85 (+6005) GPG/PGP : http://www.gslongo.eu/gslongo_it-optics.pub.asc -- OpenPGP E-Mail Security : http://enigmail.mozdev.org/home/index.php

LDAP data for JUnit
by yukti kaura 24 Jan '09

24 Jan '09

Hi All, I am using LDAP as a back end for my application. Howeve my JUnit have become LDAPServer dependant. i.e. they read the data from a particular server which I specify as the ldapUrl Do we have a mechanism that for the testing purpose alone I can introduce a static LDIF file ported alongwith the code. The JUnit will then read from LDIF in a manner that they read from LDAP Server. Is there such a method?? Please guide... Thanks for all your help!!!! Yukti Kaura

Equality matching on facsimileTelephoneNumber
by Sean Burford 23 Jan '09

23 Jan '09

Hi, ITS 2571 is suspended (since 2003) pending IETF action: http://www.openldap.org/its/index.cgi/Contrib?id=2571 Has the IETF decided how facsimile telephone number matching should work, if at all? Our users would like to replace fax numbers, and there doesn't seem to be an appropriate matching rule. -- Thanks, Sean Burford

by bharath.venkata＠wipro.com 22 Jan '09

22 Jan '09

Hi all, I am trying to use openldap api's to connect to ldap from my code. I tried to connect to ldap server 1,00,000 times(just intiliazing , binding and unbinding) Intilaly Binding to the ldap server works fine, but after some time say after reaching more than 10,000 binds. bind continously fails with below error . "Can't connect to the LDAP server - Cannot assign requested address". and error number is 91 below is my code snapshot. int main() { int ret,version,i; i=0; LDAP *ld=0; while(100000) { const char *s=0; cout<<"count is "<<i++<<endl; ld=ldap_init(HOSTNAME,PORTNUMBER); // HOSTNAME and PORTNUMBER are defined if(ld == NULL) { cout<<" error in initiliaze "<<endl; return 2; } ret=ldap_simple_bind_s(ld,"",""); ldap_perror(ld,s); if(ret != LDAP_SUCCESS) { cout<<" error in bin "<<ret<<endl; cout<<ldap_err2string(ret)<<" is the error"<<endl; } else { cout<<"bind success "<<endl; } ldap_unbind(ld); ld=NULL; } return 0; } i am clue less why this happened. Is there any restriction or bug (already present) that only certain number of binds are possible in a given time. Your help will be highly help full in my further proceedings. Regards, Bharath.
