Good morning
I am trying to setup a replication in ldap 2.5, using syncrepl, I have a provider server and a consumer, both of the servers are running 2.5.11 from Ubuntu 22.04, I followed the admin guide chapter 18.3.1 to do the configuration. I have some information on the provider that is successfully being replicated to the consumer without any errors
Consumer configuration ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -b cn=config olcSyncRepl olcUpdateref dn: olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config olcSyncrepl: {0}rid=100 provider=ldap://provider:389 type=refr eshOnly interval=00:00:05:00 retry="300 +" searchbase="dc=metrocast,dc=net" f ilter="(|(entryDN:=dc=metrocast,dc=net)(entryDN:dnOneLevelMatch:=dc=metrocast ,dc=net)(&(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=dc=metrocast,dc=net)(entrydn:dnSubtreeMatc h:=ou=Boxes,dc=metrocast,dc=net))(&(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=dc=metrocast,dc=n et)(entrydn:dnSubtreeMatch:=ou=RadiusGroups,dc=metrocast,dc=net))(&(entryDN:d nSubtreeMatch:=dc=metrocast,dc=net)(entrydn:dnSubtreeMatch:=ou=group,dc=metro cast,dc=net))(&(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=dc=metrocast,dc=net)(entryDN:distingu ishedNameMatch:=ou=People,dc=metrocast,dc=net))(&(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=dc= metrocast,dc=net)(entryDN:dnSubtreeMatch:=ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net))) " timelimit=unlimited sizelimit=unlimited bindmethod=simple binddn="cn=user,ou=boxes,dc=metrocast,dc=net" credentials="xxxx" start tls=critical tls_cacertdir="/etc/ldap/certs" olcUpdateRef: ldap://ldap-write.metrocast.net:389
I can confirm the DIT is present on the consumer and the values matches the provider item by item, including the encrypted passwords,
The issue I am having is that a query that runs on the provider without any issue is failing to run on the consumer with error 49 invalid credentials, but I do know for sure that the provided credentials are good, I even did a tcpdump and confirmed they are fine
On the provider a query similar to this one runs fine and returns a result
ldapsearch -Z -LLL -H ldap://providert:389 -D "uid=user1,ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" -W -b "ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" "(mail=*pepe@breezeline.com)
On the consumer this same query returns error 49
ldapsearch -Z -LLL -H ldap://providert:389 -D "uid=user1,ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" -W -b "ou=employees,dc=metrocast,dc=net" "(mail=*pepe@breezeline.com)
I confirmed with ldapsearch -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// ..... that the information for user1 is exactly the same in the provider and the consumer for all the attributes including the passwords. Tcpdump confirmed that I am sending the right password, doing -W or -w $password gives the same result. For any user I use to run the query I get exactly the same error 49,
I did verify that ACLs are not blocking the query.
Is there anything else I should check?? any log level that could help me identify where the error is?? Currently my loglevel is olcLogLevel: 128 256 1024
This is a dev environment so I can do changes at will.
Thanks and happy new year
