Thanks to all .........

I add this following in the /etc/libnss-ldap.conf on the server side : rootbinddn cn=proxyuser,dc=exemple,dc=org bindpw proxy pam_password MD5 nss_base_passwd ou=people,dc=exemple,dc=org?one nss_base_shadow ou=people,dc=exemple,dc=org?one nss_base_group ou=groups,dc=exemple,dc=org?one

and I add this line in the /etc/pam.d/common-session file : session required pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/

for creating the home dir when the user is connecting for the first time...

Thanks for your help anyway...........

In your /etc/nsswitch.conf

Try changing to these lines:

passwd: files ldap group: files ldap shadow: files ldap

Also in pam.d/sshd password section try adding:

password sufficient pam_ldap.so

To make much of this easier you might want to install packages something like this for your distro: libpam-ldap libnss-ldap ldap-auth-client ldap-auth-config

Good luck. -a

Hello Everyone,

I'm newbie on OpenLDAP. I build a LDAP server with one user. I can see this user when I did a "getent passwd" on my client. This is meaning that my LDAP server is working and my client is connecting on the LDAP server.

I already modify my /etc/pam.d/sshd file on t my client machine like this :

# auth auth required pam_nologin.so no_warn auth sufficient pam_opie.so no_warn no_fake_prompts auth requisite pam_opieaccess.so no_warn allow_local auth sufficient /usr/local/lib/pam_ldap.so no_warn auth required pam_unix.so no_warn try_first_pass

# account account required pam_login_access.so account required pam_unix.so

# session session required pam_permit.so

# password password required pam_unix.so no_warn try_first_pass

But I can't be connected in shh mode on my client machine with the user login ? And this modification disable my ssh root connection.

What do I have to check? Regards,

Michel,

You did not specify what linux distro. That info will help. For example, on CentOS/RH, all you have to do to enable pam_ldap auth is " /usr/bin/authconfig --enableldapauth --update"

Again, on RH/CentOS, this command changes /etc/pam.d/system-auth (linked to system-auth-ac).

------------ cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth #%PAM-1.0 # This file is auto-generated. # User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run. auth required pam_env.so auth sufficient pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet auth sufficient pam_ldap.so use_first_pass auth required pam_deny.so

account required pam_unix.so broken_shadow account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid < 500 quiet account [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] pam_ldap.so account required pam_permit.so

password requisite pam_cracklib.so try_first_pass retry=3 password sufficient pam_unix.so md5 shadow nullok try_first_pass use_authtok password sufficient pam_ldap.so use_authtok password required pam_deny.so

session optional pam_keyinit.so revoke session required pam_limits.so session optional pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/ umask=0022 session [success=1 default=ignore] pam_succeed_if.so service in crond quiet use_uid session required pam_unix.so session optional pam_ldap.so ---------------

For local users (root and several others), you want to disable LDAP lookups. Otherwise, nss_ldap tries to look up these users in LDAP. Add this to your /etc/ldap.conf: "nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,bin,daemon,adm,mail,ftp,nscd,vcsa,sshd,dbus,avahi,haldaemon,ntp,ldap,named,apache"

Hope this helps.

You probably also want a line in the account section for pam_ldap.so. Im not as familiar with opie (know what it is, just havent used it much), but since it is set as requisite and before the ldap module, its possibly failing your auth stack if you don't have it setup properly. Test with it commented out using your ldap user, and again with ldap commented out using a local user. Make sure ldap is working by itself (and the same for opie) before laying other stuff on top of it. Consult the various pam-opie-ldap integration guides on the best way to get that working together.

Since you have pam.d/common-*, those are likely the files you will want to edit rather than sshd. The sshd pam config file probably has a line that includes the common stack files, which should already have the basic stack in them, duplicating it in sshd will cause problems.

(I assume this is a debian style system) Also check that your pam_ldap.conf is setup the same as libnss-ldap.conf, you can probably replace it with a symlink to libnss-ldap.conf.

Don't use rootbinddn, use binddn or just comment them all out. rootbinddn gets its password from a file and expects to be the root/cn=Manager user of your directory. Its generally not needed for auth. The bindpw is the pw for binddn, which should be a user that can read user/group entries, and auth to userPassword. If your directory allows anonymous reads, you can comment both out and pam will work with anonymous binds.

You can generally leave the nss_base_* mappings all commented out unless your directory is setup strangely, and you probably want pam_password set to exop so that ldap handles passwords internally rather than forcing a method (unless you have a reason for it (opie req?)).
