Re: Reg OpenLdap on Ubuntu

Hi Matt, Thank you very much. I got rid of both the errors by 1. Installing libpam-foreground 2. By changing the uri in /etc/ldap.conf from ldap to ldaps One last thing is remaining now.... When tried "ldapsearch -ZZ", it asks for some password. When provided with the password, it didn't accept it (the same password what I created during dpkg --configure slapd) # ldapsearch -ZZ SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started Please enter your password: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49) Thanks again. -Asimananda On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 8:42 PM, Matt Kassawara <battery(a)writeme.com&gt;wrote: > Installing libpam-foreground or removing the reference to it in > /etc/pam.d/common-session will clear up the first error.
