Hi all, i just install open-ldap server, and i'm following this steps: i'm installing it on FreeBSD 8.0
Hello,
#*cd /usr/local/etc/openldap* #*sed -I .old 's/rootpw/# rootpw/' slapd.conf* #*echo -n "rootpw ">> slapd.conf* #*slappasswd>> slapd.conf
*#*ee /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.conf*
suffix "dc=example,dc=com" rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com"
here what i confused about, i'm running this on localhost, so what should i use? suffix "dc=localhost,dc=localdomain" or my host name ( i got it from nslookup from windows) is 11.<unit name>.<institute name>.ac.id suffix "dc=11.<unit name>.<institute name> ,dc=ac.id" or anything else?
I'm confused too. You should use whatever you've defined in 'slapd.conf'. I would say the most common practice is to use domain.tld you are about to implement LDAP to eg. dc=mydomain,dc=tld Then, to connect to LDAP, use DN: cn=Manager,dc=mydomain,dc=tld
Note: I notice you did ok.
then when i tried to do this #*ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=*example*,dc=*com*" -W -f domainmgr.ldif -c
it asks for my password, then i insert my password and then and error messages occured ldap bind: can't contact LDAP server (-1)
Insert password that you have generated by % slappasswd; and written into 'slapd.conf'. eg. 'rootpw {SSHA}Some1337SecureHashHere'
Also make sure % slapd; is running and listening. I don't know if *BSD possesses % netstat; command, but in case it does:
% netstat -nlp | grep slapd;
More information from 'slapd.conf' would be helpful.
i had search through google but i don't get the answer, thanks for your help,
