Hi,
I'm new to LDAP and have searched your site and others, but have found nothing.
I've installed OpenLdap 2.4.35 on a Red Hat Linux 5.9, following the instructions on this site.
I've migrated the users and groups from the production database (Oracle).
Now, I would like to set Password policies and have altered the slapd.conf accordingly.
# # See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options. # This file should NOT be world readable. # include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/ppolicy.schema
# Load dynamic backend modules: modulepath /usr/local/libexec/openldap # moduleload back_bdb.la # moduleload back_hdb.la # moduleload back_ldap.la moduleload ppolicy.la
####################################################################### # BDB database definitions ####################################################################### overlay ppolicy ppolicy_default "cn=default,ou=pwpolicies,ou=config,dc=ifap,dc=local"
However, when I execute slapd, I get the following error message:
52ea27a8 @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.4.35 (Oct 21 2013 16:37:56) $ root@abc00102:/u01/ldap/openldap-2.4.35/servers/slapd 52ea27a8 overlay "ppolicy" not found 52ea27a8 slapd stopped. 52ea27a8 connections_destroy: nothing to destroy.
So, can I install the policy after installing OpenLdap or must I reinstall everything again ?
Should I use the ppolicy.la or the ppolicy.so as stated in http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/ppolicy.html http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/ppolicy.html ?
# required if the overlay is built dynamically loadmodule ppolicy.la # OR loadmodule ppolicy.so
Thank you in advance Rodrigo Coutinho
