I am trying to setup LDAP and NFS for our school computer lab (authenticating student logins, file storage, etc.) but I am in over my head. I can't seem to find a good guide for 10.04 anywhere.

View 1 Replies View Relatedwe have a weird problem with our opensuse 11.2 server installation.
We want to set up a LDAP Server using the Yast-LDAP Server configuriation tool.
This indeed already worked weeks ago until....this week.
Maybe some updates??!
I do not know what happend exactly. The server just does not want to start again and throws following error:
Starting ldap-serverstartproc: exit status of parent of /usr/lib/openldap/slapd: 1 failed
This happend after a little check of the configuration, but without a change, with Yast. Google delivered only "reinstall your box"-answers.
So.. i did that. And now the "mystical" part: The SAME ERROR occurs with a fresh vanilla system with a brand new and simple configuration (certificats, database, pw...the first Yast config dialog...). I did not change the way i set it up.
I remember, when i did this the first time with 11.2 on that machine, when no problems occured...everything was running out of the box (except the "use commen server certificate" option...).
I installed CentOS 5.2 and then run yum update. I configured this server as LDAP/Samba primary domain controller. LDAP seems to be OK and for testing I am able to create users with:smbldap-tools useradd -am usernameI can ssh into the server as root and also as a Linux user which was locally created in the server. But ssh into the server as LDAP user fails (from a Fedora 11 machine) with "Permission denied, please try again", prompting again for password.Some data:
# rpm -qa | grep ldap
python-ldap-2.2.0-2.1
php-ldap-5.1.6-23.2.el5_3
[code]....
I'm trying to set up a Linux server and I am new to this. I have gone through most of the configuration using SAMBA 3.0 and when I populate the ldap directory all I get this error before the password request:
Then when I perform an ldapsearch to see if the directory is populated I get this message:
I'm positive all my .conf files are done right.
I want to settup a proxy server who just redirect the internet connection to my second computer. I try Squid Proxy but its too complicated for me. Can you sugest me another more simple program to do what i want?

When I get to the point where i'm setting up the client. More specifically when I do ldapaddgroup testgroup I am sent this error
"You must have OpenLDAP client commands installed before running these scripts"
I have installed the ldapscripts package along with all the required ones. Has anyone been through this, I imagine it's some little nuance that I am missing.
I'm trying to set up a centralized log-on scheme in a research lab with about 10 computers. It's looking like we're going with LDAP - this decision may be out of my control (but if there's an alternative that would be REALLY better, do let me know). My question is we don't really have a domain name, so when all the tutorials say cn=example,cn=com, I can't mimic this exactly. I've been trying to get away with just one, like cn=researchlab. Will LDAP work with just one, or do I need to invent a second also? On the flipside, will it work with more? Our server can be reached by
lab.department.school.edu, could I do cn=lab,cn=department,cn=school,cn=edu?
I've managed to get my Fedora box authenticate to AD with NSS_LDAP module with SSL working. I would like to bring this authentication to the next step by using SASL /GSSAPI, however I find very little / no documentation exist on this topic? I was wondering does anyone know where I can get the documentation on how to setup NSS_LDAP talking to AD with SASL/GSSAPI?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Ubuntu 9.10 and previously had a separate partition with another distro on it. I decided to delete the other distro's home and swap partitions and install XP in place of it. I've been following these instructions: [URL] and [URL] I have gotten to the point where I am booting to the XP CD and want to install it, but I get the message, "Setup did not find any hard disks installed on your computer" when I should be getting to the screen that asks me to select a partition to install XP on. This is what my HDD looks like in GParted:
I want to install XP in the unallocated partition, but I have a feeling I screwed up somewhere along the way and probably don't fully understand the whole thing. Even if I try to format the unallocated partition to NTFS I can't make it a primary partition (I assume because it's within sda2). The very last thing I want to do is delete my Ubuntu partition and start from scratch, but if that's my last option let me know.
I 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?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have looked around a while for the answer, but nothing really fits. Here is the scenario. I have one server and a few openvz VE's running. I want to be able to auth whatever possible with LDAP. I have an LDAP server setup on the host and auth works for the server users. The tricky part for me is that every VE has their own domain. and if I can do that, they will also have the same login for their VE on said domain. I can setup users and the required software on the hosts and guest, but I guess I am confused at how to manage the multiple domain part of things.
not sure if proftp can do 'name based' stuff like apache, but if it can, we can point ftp.clientdomain.foo to the main server and handle it that way.
I'm checking with a sniffer and there's activity going on between the client and the LDAP server... as a matter of fact, the sniffer shows that the search is producing one ldap item, however, php says it can't contact the ldap server (after it has bound and everything):
The script is working beautifully on another host with debian.
I've setup an Ubuntu 10.10 LDAP Client to authenticate off my LDAP server.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to setup a vpn server so I can use my computer via phone. My phone only supports pptp, l2tp and l2tp/ipsec psk. I would like to surf the web, browse files etc. I've been using this guide [URL] but get stuck on the part.
Finally, disable and re-enable ufw to apply the changes:
sudo ufw disable && sudo ufw enable
I get the error:

So is there any simple way to get a vpn working on this thing? Or at the very least an in-depth guide that covers what would happen if something goes wrong.
I have toyed with the idea of building some systems with Ubuntu to sell locally. Most of the systems I see advertised in the local papers seem WAY over priced, so I thought I could make a few bucks by selling competitive systems. However, I would rather send them out with Ubuntu on them. Maybe the $100 savings over the other OS might get a few more people trying out Ubuntu.
However, I would rather have the system installed, but have it go through some of the questions from the normal install to set up the user accounts, computer name etc... I would not want systems going with with usernames and computer names that I selected.
I have done some searching, and have found "how to's" for making your own install disk (custom packages already part of it, back grounds etc...) but that is not really what I want. Plus, an install like this could then be an easy way for local computer shops to sell computers with Ubuntu.
i have configured ldapserver on rhel4 for creating address book
following are configuration files on ldap server
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
include /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema
i am able to import this ldif file into database.also when i perform the ldapsearch on this server with command"ldapsearch �x �W �D �cn=manager, dc=example, dc =com� �b �dc=example, dc=com�" i get correct output.
but when i am trying to search from another client machine, i am getting "error ldap_sasl_bind(SIMPLE): Can't contact LDAP server (-1)"
also when i configured address book on mozilla on server., it is working fine.but not working on another machine.is any configuration is missing on client machine.both ldap server and client are configured on rhel4es without any firewall or selinux.
I 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.
i have successful secure ldap replication but i could not make ldap client to direct its authentication to slave ldap
here is my config file on ldap client (i am not sure if it is the right place though)
ip : 192.168.1.183 is master ldap
ip : 192.168.1.185 is slave ldap

I 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?
I set up a dhcp server in the lan and assigned static ips to two computers, computer A and B, according to their mac address. Everything was running fine. But when I turned off computer A, connected computer C to the network, and assigned computer A's static ip to computer C without changing dhcp setting. Computer C was able to access the internet. When I turned on computer A, dhcp couldn't assign an ip address to it, and computer C showed an error message of ip conflict and failed to use internet. I wonder if dhcp server is able to prevent other computer from using the same static ip that is already assigned to a computer according to its mac address.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently involved in setting up an openldap server on a CentOS platform. I am having some issues with getting it set up to the point that I can remotely manage the server via phpldapadmin in a web browser. I am running into an issue when starting the slapd daemon.
See the output below to better understand:
why 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]
