Mar 9, 2011I encountered a question in the Redhat Skills Assessment regarding useradd: Which of the following cannot be defined when you create a user account with useradd?
a* A password expiration date.

d* The user's NIS or LDAP group.
e* The user's home directory.
Which is the correct answer? I have my own thinking which will be explained later.

Debian Configuration :: Can't Login With New User (useradd Command)
Sep 5, 2015I created a new user with command useradd (as root) :
Code: Select alluseradd razer123
And then set a password with command passwd (as root):
Code: Select allpasswd razer123
No Error!
When I logged out and tried to login with new user, I coulden't! (even after restart!)
I looked into /etc/passwd :
Code: Select allcat /etc/passwd | grep razer123
result:
Code: Select allrazer123:x:1002:1002::/home/razer123:/bin/bash
There is no home folder in the path!

Mar 31, 2010I've compiled openssh-5.4p1 on RHEL 4.8 with Openssl 0.9.8m + pam It works perfect without pam (pam-0.77-66), both with password and public key auth. Whith pam enabled and LDAP (openldap-2.4.21, from scratch) something strange happens: system users: I can do ssh with both password and public key LDAP users: public key works for remote users, still I cannot do ssh with just password. I'm trying a custom PAM configuration, because the default one (even with authconfig + LDAP ) blocks ssh even with system users.
My pam SSHD configuration is:
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_env.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
auth sufficient pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
[code]....
My LDAP users are ok: i can do "su - " remote LDAP (so that nss_ldap is OK), also getent passwd and getent group is ok.
General :: Add A New User With Useradd On Debian 4.0: Segmentation Fault

I made a strace, that says: access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) I have read maybe the libc6 is missing or damaged, so I installed it again (apt-get install libc6, install was successfull), but the problem is still there. I touched it (touch /etc/ld.so.nohwcap)

I read that this could be a result of there not being enough space but if I do df -h, i see that only 88% of the memory is being used.
Server :: Command Line Tool To Add User Records To LDAP?
Jun 11, 2010I'm looking for a script or a tool I can use from the command line, non-interactively, to add users to our LDAP server.

Ubuntu Servers :: Cannot Setup LDAP Via Server Guide / Hangs When Issuing 'ldapmodify' Command
Oct 4, 2010I have been trying to set up an LDAP server for a development environment as part of an internship for a week now, and I cannot get past this point. I have been following the 10.04 server guide to set up LDAP here: URL...Once I get to the following point in the guide, it just hangs:"As an example of modifying the cn=config tree, add another attribute to the index list using ldapmodify:"I've been working on this for a week and can't understand why this won't work. I am fairly certain that I've followed the guide to a 'T.'Any idea why am I receiving a permission denied error? Is this a permissions issue with one of the config files?

OpenSUSE :: Ldap Via Yast - Ldap-sasl-interactive_bind_s - Local Error - 2
Jul 2, 2010I took to yast to install ldap. I creating the CA cert, server key and server cert and specified them during the yast ldap server dialogs.
The firewall is open for ldap.
I also went through yast's ldap client ... though I didn't exactly see to anything (presuably it wrote up a configuration file somewhere).
However when trying use the basic ldap tools, like ldapwhoami. Well it doesn't connect and gives me the above error. Of coure the ldap db is unpopulated as yet, so it probably is not able to say who am at all. But ldapadd doesn't work either.
It seems to point to my SSL usage not being correct .. so I'm trying to double check that now.

CentOS 5 Networking :: LDAP User Can't Login Remotely By SSH On LDAP/Samba PDC?
Sep 8, 2009I installed CentOS 5.2 and then run yum update. I configured this server as LDAP/Samba primary domain controller.

Server :: Apache Authentication: Allow LDAP Group OR User Named Guest But Not All LDAP Users?
May 25, 2011I am using RackMonkey to map out my lab. Unfortunately, due to RM limitations, every user who accesses the site has write access UNLESS they are logged in as a user named "guest". I currently have Apache allowing only the users (sysadmins) in an LDAP group access to RM, but I would like to allow read-only access for other users as well.I found mod_authn_anon, but I am having trouble combining the two authentication methods. I am using Apache 2.2.18 (compiled myself) on SLES 11.1.
This is the common part:
Code:
AuthType Basic
AuthBasicProvider ldap anon
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
This part by itself works for the LDAP authentication:
Code:
AuthName "System Admins"
AuthLDAPURL "ldaps://example.com/ou=ldap,o=example.com?mail" SSL
Require ldap-group cn=SysAdmins,ou=memberlist,ou=groups,o=example.com
This part works by itself for guest access:
Code:
Anonymous guest
Anonymous_VerifyEmail Off
Anonymous_MustGiveEmail Off
Anonymous_LogEmail on
Require valid-user
But if I have both of the previous blocks enabled at once, then guest access does not work. If I throw in a "Satisfy any", then I am not prompted for a username at all. How can I allow access to this LDAP group and to a user named "guest", but not allow all valid LDAP users to log in?

View 3 Replies View RelatedDebian Configuration :: Can't Login On The Ldap-client Via Ldap
Aug 9, 2010why i can't login on the ldap-client via ldap, so here is a short description of my machines (i use openvz virtualising)I have on the HN (Debian Lenny) 2 VE's, which are in the same subnet (192.168.1.0/24)The first VE (Hostname: ldap1, IP: 192.168.1.91) is the ldap-server, which is so configured, that i can manage the server via phpldapadmin.The second VE (Hostname: ftp1, IP: 192.168.1.31) is the ldap-client, there should run a sftp-server in the future and the sftp-server(ssh-server) should use ldap-usernames to login. on the ftp1, i get with this command getent passwd the users configured on the ldap-server, but with the command id USERNAME the result is, that the user doesn't exist. (USERNAME is this name, i get returned by getent) and if i try to login via ssh, i get permission denied. and because the machines are openvz-virtual-machines, so i can't login on them like on a normal system, but a su USERNAME doesn't work too, because the user is not known on the system.
my installation:
i don't think, that the ldap-server is the problem, because the phpldapadmin and getent on ftp1 are working perfectly, but if you want, i can post the config here too. the VE ftp1 was configured with the following how-to: [URL] and pam is configured like in the chapter "PAM setup with pam_ldap" on [URL]

Slackware :: Can't Make 'useradd' Work
May 10, 2010Code:
useradd -u 8001 -g luc -p mypassword -s /usr/bin/bash -d /home/luc luc
Open another terminal:
Code:
luc[159-0]test> ssh luc@61.62.63.64
[Code].....
Jump back to the other terminal... Try SSH login... Success!
'adduser' works, 'useradd' doesn't. Why? I have read the man pages several times and can't find the error in my command line.
I have a similar problem with groupadd
This fails: groupadd -g 8001 staff
This works: groupadd staff
Fedora :: F13 SSSD And LDAP (ldap.conf) / Appear /etc/ldap.conf Is Being Ignored?
Oct 21, 2010I have LDAP authentication working via SSSD using authconfig-tui and a few minor modifications to sssd.conf (ie: max_id etc). The problem I am having is it would appear /etc/ldap.conf is being ignored and/or setups that work perfectly on RHEL5, F11 and F12 no longer work on F13. Specifically Im referring to "pam_check_host_attr" and "nss_map_attribute". It refuses to honor either of these options and I can only assume a number of the other options in our ldap.conf. For instance, "nss_map_attribute" is defaulting to the standard "homeDirectory" rather than "homeDirectoryLinux". This is related to a bunch of OSX clients we have and its not optional to use another setup. The host restriction is also a major issue.
Relevant sssd.conf:
[domain/default]
auth_provider = ldap
cache_credentials = True
Server :: Difference Between /etc/ldap.conf Vs. /etc/ldap/ldap.conf?
Jul 13, 2010can anyone tell me what is the difference between these two files of LDAP client /etc/ldap.conf and /etc/ldap/ldap.conf and for what purposes these two files gives services. Is it necessary to have these two files at a time ?
I use these files to install LDAP client to authenticate with our LDAP server by creating a symbolic link of /etc/ldap.conf to /etc/ldap/ldap.conf.
