Dear list members,
I've been fighting with this problem on and off for 6 months now (you can see some of my queries if you Google for me...) and I cannot for the life of me figure out what is going on. We are trying to get a Fedora 9 test box to authenticate against a Solaris 10 (SPARC) Sun Java Directory Server 6.3.1 box using anonymous binding and no SSL (we are on an internal, trusted network).
The JDS is running the NIS-to-LDAP script that Sun provide and can get information from the directory.
The Fedora box is running OpenLDAP client (version: openldap-clients-2.4.10-2.fc9.x86_64) and can't get any infromation from the directory after I switch to LDAP authentication from NIS authentication using system-config-authentication. NIS on the Fedora box works fine, so it isn't a network issue.
An extract from the access log on the server shows the following:

Connection 2618 is from the Fedora box and is unsuccessful. Connection 4 is the NIS-to-LDAP service on the Solaris box and is successful.
I have a number of questions, but, chiefly, am I actually using anonymous binding? If I need to set a bind DN, what should it be? Can I modify the search base so that it looks more like the search given in msgid 4168?
I'm sorry for the newbie questions (especially about a JDS server) but I am really tearing my hair out over this.
I hope some of you can help.
Thanks in advance.
Andy
