View 2 Replies View Relatedwhy 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]
I have 389-DS ( Fedora DS) setup on CentOS 5.3 and working fine. I configured LDAP Client and want to login as user created under fedora DS Client. From Client Machine, I can easily see:
Code:
[root@fedoraDS-Client ~]# id ajrain
uid=569(ajrain) gid=569 groups=569 context=root:
system_r:unconfined_t:SystemLow-SystemHigh
This is User from LDAP Server (fedora DS Server) which is showing in Client Machine. So It means its retreiving value from Server. Correct? Now When I am trying to login , it says "Server unexpectedly closed network Connection". When I supplied user password:
Code:
login as: ajrain
ajrain@fedoraDS-Client's password:
The File /var/log/secure says:
Code:

I have an LDAP server holding user/pass/group for many users. Due to network issues, the server sometimes is unreachable and clients cannot login, current sessions usually freeze after a while. All client have ubuntu 10.04.2 x64.
I have went through the outdated howto to cache the LDAP credentials.
I setup the required packages
daily cron "nss_updatedb ldap"
and edited '/etc/nsswitch.conf' to have "files ldap [NOTFOUND=return] db" for both passwd and group.

I setup openldap and samba on 9.10. The ubuntu desktop client gets authenticated successfully with the server. But when I do a passwd on the client, only the ldap passwd is getting changed but not in the samba and the unix user account.
My smb.conf
Code:
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://192.168.3.100
ldap suffix = dc=example,dc=local
ldap user suffix = ou=People
ldap group suffix = ou=Groups
[code].....
But only the ldap password is getting changed and not in the samba and unix user account.
I tried
unix password sync = yes
but same result.
So I've configured ldap on Centos5 64 bit and I can run "ldap search" and "gentent passwd" on the client/server and it shows my users info.
But I can't login via the cli or GUI.
I can login by doing;
su - username
at the client or server but I can't login by issuing;
login username
or at the GUI login screen.
(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

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,

following are configuration files on ldap server

include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.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 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)

This may sound a bit odd, but after installing Ubuntu Server 9.10 64-bit version, I can't seem to log in with the root account that I created. My user account works fine. I thought that I may have fat fingered the password when I created it so I ran the installer again since it takes very little time to do so. When creating the new root account password, I was very careful to type it correctly. After the install was complete, I am still unable to use the root account. I'm unable to SU from my normal user account, too. I just receive the Login incorrect error. Is there something with using root accounts with Ubuntu server that I'm missing?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue with resolv.conf being empty (apart from the resolvconf header) upon first login. I am assigned a DHCP lease fine, it also appears that DNS works briefly as all my NFS file shares seem to be working ok and they have name rather than an IP address in /etc/fstab. I have to manually re establish my lease by using the Network Manager panel each time I first login.

I am running NFS and NIS servers in my FC8. Clients are also running FC8. Everything was working fine. I could login remotely to server as well as clients. Suddenly (few days ago) a problem started. I can not login remotely to client machines. I did not do anything. I can login to server remotely, but not the client. When I try to login, it accept password and nothing happens. Also, when I try to login from server to client same thing happens. We share the home directory of the server with client. Another question: there two type of nfs server nfs-user-server and nfs-kernel-server. I just use gui to set up the NFS. I don't know which one I am running. Is there any way to find out which nfs I am running?

Where apart from ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail does kmail keep account data, such as login data/names of pop/smtp servers? I wanted to install an entirely clean version of kmail, so I uninstalled/re-installed kmail via YAST. I manually deleted ~/.kde4/share/apps/kmail. After installing kmail I found that the account data of my Yahoo account were still listed in the kmail configuration panel. Shall I delete the Yahoo account within kmail prior to uninstalling the kmail package?

I just installed Fedora 12 on a laptop. I changed the default shell on the root account to /bin/tcsh and changed the runlevel to 3 and then rebooted. Now I can't login into the root account: it returns me immediately to the login prompt and I can't see any error message (the screen is cleared).Why is this happening?Can I boot into some sort of safe mode so I can undo my changes to the /etc/inittab and /etc/passwd file?I tried booting with a Live CD with the intention of mounting the filesystem and making the changes, but the new filesystem is a LVM and it won't let me mount it (or I don't know how to mount a Logical Volume).

We have several FC machines (from 6 to 12) that use an OpenLDAP server running on Centos 5.4 for authentication. I have now tried setting up a FC13 workstation. I notice that the authentication GUI has changed and wants me to use Kerberos or a TLS enabled server. Is there a way to get FC13 to behave like FC12 in this respect. Or (less desirable) what changes do I have to make to the server to accommodate FC13?
The workstation knows who the users are, but will not authenticate if they try and log in.
