Ubuntu Servers :: LDAP - Cannot Get The Replication Server Operating Correctly
Jun 7, 2010
I have successfully installed Openldap and am able to authenticate to it, but I can not get the replication server operating correctly. I have followed all of the steps in doing so from this guide, [URL], but there are a few things i don't understand. when creating the consumer_sync.ldif file on the consumer server it says to replace ldap01.example.com to your server's hostname.
would this be the provider or consumer? My porvider is ldap@tech.local and my consumer is ldap-backup@tech.local.... so what one are they refurring to with the ldap01? And is there a way to push, or sync the two server manually? How do I know if they are backing up properly? How do I test?
I have set it up, but I'm not sure whether the admin username and password are set correctly. How do I confirm? Also, if someone has any links explaining the format of an LDIF file.
I had a working LAMP server on my old server. After a HD went out and was replaced I rebuilt my server with Ubuntu 10.10 server. Talk about a smooth and impressive install. I set up my Apache server and MySQL and even installed php5 just like I had done before on my old server. The only thing different I did with this install is with Apache. I now host 3 websites with virtual hosts. This is the only thing different I have done than the last time.
My problem now is my website won't display PHP. I didn't know I had this problem until I installed Drupal for a friend to play around with. Drupal won't finish the installation process because it claims: In your ./sites/default/settings.php file you have configured Drupal to use a server, however your PHP installation currently does not support this database type.
Know I have googled this phrase to hell and back to find a resolution and haven't. I even talked to my local linux guru at work and he refereed me here. I have tried reinstalling php left and right. I'm convinced that there is an option to enable php globally that I'm missing. I really think the virtual hosts is what is causing this trouble. What input will the mighty Ubuntu community provide me with,
Just installed openldap server on a VM CentOS called 'ldapsrv', it works fine, ldapsearch returns all ldap information.
Installed openldap client on another VM CentOS called 'ldapclient1', configured it with most basic configuration, no ssl/tls etc. but ldapsearch returns error:
I need to install linux-pam on 13.1, pam is finicky and you can really screw up your system with it. getting pam installed and operating correctly on a slackware system?
I have been stuck with this for quite some time now. I have installed ldap and configured it as per instructions fromI am able to query the ldap server without forcing the TLS operation to be successful.But with ldapsearch -d -1 -x -h servername -ZZ -b dc=example,dc=eduI get the error
After installing 11.2, using KDE, there was a transparent folder on the desktop containing a set of icons. Like openSUSE and Online Help and a couple of others. If I clicked on it, a menu would come out of the right side of it. I clicked on the X and the folder went away, never to be seen again. I tried to find how to get it back but was unsuccessful.
After installing 11..3, using KDE, there it was again! After monkeying around with it for a while, I clicked on the X and again, it seems gone for good! I still can't find how to get it back!
Also, it seems no one else has this problem so I guess I'm just not capable of operating this computer thing correctly.
I am using Debian as mail server and proxy server. I need to configure one backup server for the same. Mainly I need to replicate/sync the files on both machines. So I can avoid the failure time.
I have two computers (one tower, one laptop). On both the computers, I have apache & PHP & mysql running, so i can program/script anywhere I like. With a simple sync'ing program, the PHP scripts are synced between the PC's, thought the databases arent. Therefor I'm looking for a method to sync (replicate) the databases between the PC's. thought after setting up some configuration, i'm stuck... now with how to, but what to
Option 1) Multi-master replication between the PC and the laptop. With this setup, the database can ONLY sync once both the devices are turned on. Also it can only sync if they are turned on on my LAN, since they do not have an external static IP address. if I turn on both PC's on my LAN, with static IP's (from the DHCP server), this option will work. Thought, I basically never have both pc's turned on in my own home... cuz i can use only one at the time anyway.So I was thinking of another setup
Option 2) Multi-master replication with: online Server, PC and Laptop. The server basically contains the most up to date database. for example, the laptop updates the server and the server can update the PC later, once the PC is turned on. Also the other way around, the PC can update the server which can than update the Laptop.
There is, if i'm correct, only one problem: the only multi master replications setups I found, use a circulair setup... (1 updates 2, 2 updates 3, 3 updates 1) What I need is to have the PC update the server, but ALSO have the server update the PC (same for the laptop)
than there is another (little) problem: the PC and laptop cannot be reached from behind the modem, nor do they have a static IP. My question: Is it possible to sync the server with the laptop (that has no static IP), the laptop with the server (that has a static IP), and the same for the PC
Im using bind9 as DNS server on my LAN, but it does not seem to translate its own hostname correctly for some reason. Other hosts is translated correctly, the problem only seems to apply to the DNS host itself. if i "ping <server_hostname>" from the server, it translates correctly. But if i "ping <server_hostname>" from the client it only says "unknown host" The client has the correct DNS-server assigned. How can i start troubleshooting this?
Making a Samba Server with LDAP authentication. Will post as I go along. Found these sources, anything/hiccups I should know before jumping in? Figure would follow the official documentation then check the others for comparative errors.
(This was posted at the end of another thread, where it probably didn't belong, so reposting here)I have Active Directory set up on one machine (and I can't really adjust the settings very much) and Ubuntu Server 10.04, which I would like to use as a client.I followed the directions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LD...Authentication, but when I get to
Code: getent passwd I don't see anything from the LDAP, and ssh'ing into the box from an LDAP/AD username certainly doesn't work.
In addition, I've attempted to use Webmin's LDAP Configuration module to configure it. I can connect to the server and can browse it with the LDAP browser with my settings, but the Webmin package doesn't recognize the users (which are organized in one of four Organizational Units (OUs) within the OU that I have as my Search Base) as users,
we 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 and configured LDAP server and client on RHEL5 successfully. Problem is that when I add more than one user on server and clients, It shows error 'invalid user'.When I run the command:-#chown -R user:users /home/user, It shows error 'invalid user'. by step for adding and modifying more users in ldap servers.
Im having trouble setting my SAMBA server correctly. I have two Win machines, one with WIN7 and one with XP. I have one Ubuntu machine and Ubuntu Server 10.04. My problem is that I can only acess files from the Win 7 Machine. When I try to map out the shared dirs on my serverI get asked for user and password, when I enter my creditensials it dosent help.. What to do? I used the sample smb.conf file and open for no restrictions..
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?
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 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 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:
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'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:
If I have 2 MySQL server and I want to replicate their database to only 1 server, is it possible? I cannot afford to have master-to-master only because I still need to replicate one more machine but I do not have anymore more machine for replication so I'm thinking if these 2 MySQL server can be replicate to only 1 machine. If this is not possible, I guess I've no choice but to have two mysql daemon on that machine
I configured a master DNS server 192.168.2.10 working OK. After that I configure a DNS Slave Server (92.168.2.11)the initial replication worked fine. This is test environment for my certification. I see how the zones from my master are transferred zones in Master training.com.db transferred zone to my slave when I started named service sec.training.com.db
That's Ok but I added some IPs to resolve to my master zone webserver IN A 192.168.2.30 fileserver IN A 192.168.2.31
I restart/reload named on master and after that I go to slave and restart/reload but zones wuth the new values are not replicated. How long does it take for slave to take the changes from master? how is the procedure manual or automatic? I see If I go to slave and delete sec.training.com and restart named the zone with the changes is transferred but that is very manual... I am including my DNS Configuration so you can take a look.
Might this is silly question but I am not much familiar to database.I am doing master slave Mysql replication for load balancing. On master server different database has different user privileges. I create backup using mysqldump command and restore on slave server instead of using load data from master; command.When i replicate database from master to slave will i require to set user privileges same as master ?One more question: How to lock all database in mysql?
I'm wondering how I can enable LDAP support for my Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server running Apache 2 and PHP 5.3.2? What I'm trying to do is allow users on my existing company's LDAP system to login to my Elgg site automatically (and possibly have their details filled automatically).
I am looking into setting up replication in a production environment but currently this is on two test machines. I am following the documentation at [URL] but I am unable to get past "16.1.1.10 Setting the Master Configuration on the Slave". When I do the CHANGE MASTER TO I am getting a syntax error for some reason. What am I doing wrong? These servers run "CentOS release 5.5 (Final)" and "MySQL 5.0.77-log Source distribution" installed via yum. The only changes from default are that I created a single database on the master before doing the table lock and dump, then everything else has been done exactly to what the documentation states, but is still failing.
The option skip-networking is not in the config file on either server and neither one runs SELinux or any firewall.
mysql> CHANGE MASTER TO -> MASTER_HOST='192.168.1.220' -> MASTER_USER='repl' -> MASTER_PASSWORD='removed'
In the past I found some great help on this forum, so here goes. Bare with me because it's a long story. I'll try to be as complete as possible. I've installed and configured OpenLdap on a virtual machine with ip 192.168.39.134. I've added 2 users via LAM. In the ou WikiUsers and the domain is wiki.local.
I've then created another host with ip 192.168.39.133 with mediawiki installed on it. Then I added the extension LDAPAuthenthication. In the LdapAuthentication file I added this code (only the last paragraph is mine, I added the others to show it's location in the script):
I know I'm close because I can't register any new users or accounts on the mediawiki site. Although I could before I added the LDAP service. This is indeed all just to test and get to know how LDAP works. That's why it's all virtual in VMWare. I did not really configure anything on the LDAP, i just installed it and chose a domain (wiki.local).
