I have followed following article to install/configure OpenLDAP on Ubuntu Server 9.10 https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html
There is no slapd.conf in picture here instead running "dpkg-reconfigure slapd" should come up with following Wizard (got this after running through numerous articles on this)
*Wizard steps:*
1. *omit openldap server configuration? – no* 2. *dns domain name? vm.example.org* 3. *organization name? myCompany* 4. *database backend to use? hdb* 5. *do you want the database to be removed when slapd is purged? yes* 6. *may be the question: move old database? yes* 7. *administrator password? the same one as entered during installation* 8. *confirm password? see last step* 9. *allow LDAPv2 protocol? no*
However in my installation wizards asks * Omit OpenLDAP server configuration? No Do you want the database to be removed when slapd is purged? No Allow LDAPv2 protocol? No Creating initial slapd configuration... done. Starting OpenLDAP: slapd.
*Has anyone attempted this before? What I'm missing here? Could someone like to pitch in for some help?
So when I run "ldapsearch -x" it gives me following output
admins@x6:/etc/ldap$ ldapsearch -x # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> (default) with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL #
# search result search: 2 result: 32 No such object
# numResponses: 1
where is should give the output like
# extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base (default) with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL #
# vm.example.org dn: dc=vm,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: top objectClass: dcObject objectClass: organization o: myCompany dc: vm
# admin, vm.example.org dn: cn=admin,dc=vm,dc=example,dc=org objectClass: simpleSecurityObject objectClass: organizationalRole cn: admin description: LDAP administrator
# search result search: 2 result: 0 Success
# numResponses: 3 # numEntries: 2
