Unix id command and Openldap
by okossuth＠antel.com.uy 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hi Does the id command works with a system using OPENLDAP authentication ? I have implemented a server with openldap 2.4 and several clients use this system to authenticate users, and works fine except that when I do a "id user" on a client it only gives me the information of the primary group which the user belongs to and not of the suplementary groups that he is also a member of in the LDAP server... any ideas??

Solaris 10 LDAP Password issue
by John Gee 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hello Community, i have a problem with Solaris 10 LDAP password encryption to a OpenLDAP Server. When setting a inital Password with ldapadd login works fine, after the user changed inital Password on a Solaris-Station with 'passwd -r ldap' Solaris commited it with 'password successfully changed for john'. But the user cant login with the new Password. 1) Setting initial Password with ldapadd (Password: 8ASdhXY!Xy) version: 1 dn: uid=john,ou=people,ou=unix,o=kleinfeld,c=ch userPassword: {MD5}khVDRrTSYMHjTw7V6VEZwg== 2) User Login and change password with 'passwd -r ldap' (Password: 9DnxSF!dKS) version: 1 dn: uid=john,ou=people,ou=unix,o=kleinfeld,c=ch userPassword: {crypt}0vUAwIdPR4X2E Has someone a idea whats going wrong? I cant track down this problem. --( nsswitch.conf )--- passwd: compat passwd_compat: files ldap group: files ldap shadow_compat files ldap --( pam.conf )--- login auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1 login auth required pam_ldap.so.1 rlogin auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1 rlogin auth required pam_ldap.so.1 other auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1 other auth required pam_ldap.so.1 --( /etc/security/policy.conf )--- CRYPT_ALGORITHMS_ALLOW=1,2a,md5 CRYPT_DEFAULT=__unix__ Regards John

Openldap 2.3.39 Solaris 9 (maybe memory leaks).
by Andrea Cirulli 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hi all, we are experiencing a lot of problems with openldap 2.3.39 on Solaris 9. We have the following set: 1- One producer Solaris 9 openldap 2.3.39 2- 19 Consumer, synchronized with the producer through syncrepl, Solaris 9 openldap 2.3.39 3- We manage the authentication on 2000 systems , almost equally distributed on the 20 ldap server The producer is often going down, each hour and less during the day. We noticed that every time the Producer is going down the virtual memory used is bigger than 3,8 Gb and the RSS (resident set size) is bigger than 2,1 Gb. This is a snapshot of prstat when openldap is about of crashing: PID USERNAME SIZE RSS STATE PRI NICE TIME CPU PROCESS/NLWP 1965 root 3873M 2179M sleep 60 0 0:41:40 0.5% slapd/27. The openldap is compiled in this way: ./configure --enable-bdb --enable-ppolicy --with-tls If these informations are not enough, I could provide other informations. It seems that there is a memory leak. P.S: We are using these systems since 2,5 years, the number of the managment systems is always growing up. We have this problem since 2 weeks. -- Andrea Cirulli

N-Way Multi-Master replication - delete problem
by Adrien Futschik 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

I'm testing N-Way Multi-Master replication with OpenLDAP 2.411. I have setup 2 Masters (m1 & m2) starting form test050-syncrepl-multimaster and modifying it. Every thing seems to work fine except deleting entries. Let me explain. case 1 : . When I add an entry on m1 it is successfully replicated on m2. . When I try to delete this entry on m1, it is successfully removed from m1, but not replicated on m2. . When, I try to delete this entry on m2, it is successfully removed from m2 & m1. case 2 : . When I add an entry on m2 it is successfully replicated on m1. . When I try to delete this entry on m2, it is successfully removed from m2, but not replicated on m1. . When, I try to delete this entry on m1, it is successfully removed from m1 & m2. I don't have the same problem when I delete an attribute or update an entry. Is this normal ? Adrien Futschik

Well if i consider a 'HEAD' entry (without a number) all others are old versions. And that would be also ok for me. Thanks for the tip.

First, I would suggest you keep your replies on the list, so other people can gain knowledge too. Second, it clearly notes it stores the log files in /usr/local/var/openldap-logs. I'm guessing the slapd user can't access that location. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

Floating point numbers in ldap
by Lorenzo Pastrana 16 Dec '08

16 Dec '08

I can't find any mentions of floating point/real data types in ldap attributes syntax, I've been reading the laconic 'Numeric Sting' specifications : 6.23. Numeric String ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.36 DESC 'Numeric String' ) The encoding of a string in this syntax is the string value itself. Example: 1997 Would this work ok (matching & ordering) with a 1.997 value ? If not, how do I get ldap to match and order floating point scalars ? Thanks. Lo.
