I have a RHEL 5.4 server installed in a server farm. The server is administered under a central AD, which means that administrators are registered in the AD.
However, I have to deploy an application on the linux server, that will use it's own OpenLDAP server. This means that this application will be the client to the LDAP server installed on the same RHEL server.
I tried installing OpenLDAP using yum and it resulted in a very fatal issue. Somehow the configuration files used for finding the Linux server from the AD was overwritten and the Linux server was not reachable anymore.
After some investigations, and possibly, rebuild, the server has been handed over to me.
The problem is how should I install OpenLDAP so that the existing connection to AD is not lost.
On the Linux server I see a /etc/openldap directory but only contains ldap.conf and cacerts directory.
I'm having much problems trying to configure openldap on Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS
I have tried many tutorials, many configuration but still without results, I made the following script (for not repeating the same work, again & again)

I ran across something while installing amd64-kernel.I did so cause i wanted to test hadrets xfce-4.8 repo.viewtopic.php?f=16&t=58733#p341988It boots very fast.I usually don't care about such things, cause i am very happy how it is, but i wanted to check if it is a feeling, or for real.I followed gnududes how-to use bootchart:viewtopic.php?f=16&t=38869So, that was the long story, here comes the short version:On i368, but a full installation with all kind of stuff, it takes 20 seconds to boot.On amd64, with only a few basic packages, it takes 8 seconds.Is the fast boot time due to 64, or is it due to the little amount of apps?(that was my question for this thread, in case no one realized).

I have changed some settings on my DNS / DHCP config under Debian Lenny, and now when i try to ping some box it only works with long names.
For example:
Ping borsti doesnt work (can not find host) but if i use ping borsti.borsti.iss it works. I have no idea why it doesnt work because i only modified the dnssec-key (created a new key) and nothing else in te config Here is the config i used for bind: (taken from named.conf.options and named.conf.local)

Openldap Server configuration:
I've installed Ubuntu server on a small box with a couple of large hard drives to use as a remote backup server. Since my backups will run nightly in the wee hours, I'm configuring this to use Wake-on-LAN to start the server and run the backup. Once the backup completes - probably on the order of an hour later - another script shuts the server down. Once in a while I'll remote in to update packages and check on the status of the system, though I can check backup logs to insure that is still running.
Need I be concerned about the various cron jobs that periodically run to tidy things up? Should I periodically - say once/month - leave the system up for a full day to make sure that everything that needs to happen will run?
I am planning to deploy an OpenLDAP server in my LAN for basic authentication, but I have no idea how to do it. I would like to know how to configure an OpenLDAP Server, and I would also like to know about knowledge resources, if any.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have no ACLs in place yet but want to use a user called ldap-auth-user to bind to the ldap servers directory from the client servers. However I keep on getting ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49). Error. I know the UserPassword is correct because I can log into a server using that id and password through the LDAP directory. I am guessing it has something to do with the way I created the account.
This Works:
ldapsearch -D 'cn=Manager,dc=test,dc=com' -x 'uid=testuser' -W
This Doesn't:

Where I have made a mistake?
- Is it necessary to create an account on Linux box and then migrate it to ldap?
- I was just wondering if I can somehow change the default filter from AND to OR at the time of login. I used "pam_filter |objectClass=inetOrgPerson" in ldap.conf.
However, it didn't change the filter.

I have recently installed openldap on a server to use for authentication but I'm unable to get SHA/SSHA password hashes to work. I'm able to authenticate against it when the user have a CRYPT password. We had an old badly maintained openldap server that SHA worked on so I ran slapcat on that one and built that database on the new openldap server and was able to authenticate with SHA hashed passwords. So I'm quite confident that my slapd.conf works.
I suppose it's something in the ldif file I use to setup the database that is missing but I can't figure out what. It's quite large and I don't really know what parts of it would be relevant.
I have OpenLDAP 2.4.12 and Samba 3.5.1 installed. When I try to change the password with smbpasswd, it changes the Windows password fine. But userPassword is not updated in LDAP. The error message is: "smbldap_check_root_dse: Expected one rootDSE, got 0" when I run smbpasswd -D 10 <username>.
I added the following to slapd.conf:
access to dn.base=""
by * read
password-hash {md5}
in hopes of allowing samba to read the root DSE, even though Samba is configured with the root DN.
how to make samba find what it needs in the root DSE of my LDAP server?
