hi everybody, this must be one of the most ancient questions - but browsing (centos') local docs reveal nothing. I'd imagine passwords is that first & most important thing everybody does to make sure slapd is secured, something like "mysql_secure_installation"
I'm trying to do something I'd think is simple and should just work, but, I'm wrong, so I do:
slapadd -v -n0 <<EOL dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig olcDatabase: {0}config
olcRootDN: cn=admin,cn=config olcRootPW:: exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
EOL
and I get in return: slapadd: could not add entry dn="olcDatabase={0}config,cn=config" (line=1): autocreation of "olcDatabase={-1}frontend" failed
So that question - how does one secure ldap installation? But I'd insist on not referring something like "slaptest and convert old school to ..." or .. edit config file(s) What I think is - I have a clean installation which is configured in probably best possible way but missing is: olcRootDN, olcRootPW How to use slapadd for it? Is slapadd not the right tool for this?
many thanks, L.
