ldap_search_s SegFaults on Linux
Hey guys,
I'm in a mid-size trouble...
I have a piece of code which just builds a filter fitting my needs
and returns that to a function which immediately calls ldap_search_s().
The problem is...I'm getting a segmentation fault on ldap_search_s().
The problem is with the filter but I don't know what is the problem.
If I pass the filter string directly to ldap_search_s(...,
"filterstring",...) the code works fine. Also if immediately before I
return the filter string, I make a strcpy(filter, "filterstring"), the
code will work fine. I just don't understand what's happening there.
My guess is that the problem is with OpenLDAP 1.2.9, it works preety
fine.
Client Profile:
slackware 8.0
kernel 2.4.17
OpenLDAP 1.2.9 and 1.2.13 (tested on both)
glib 2.2.3
Server Profile:
solaris 8
OpenLDAP 1.2.9
------------------------------
Boxes Specification
M1 (client):
slackware 8.0
openldap 1.2.13
M2 (server):
solaris 7
openldap 1.2.9
M3 (client/server)
solaris 8
openldap 1.2.13
M4 (client/server)
solaris 7
openldap 1.2.9
Authentication Test Results:
M1 -> M2 = Error
M1 -> M3 = OK
M1 -> M4 = Error
M3 -> M2 = OK
M3 -> M3 = OK
M3 -> M4 = OK
M4 -> M2 = OK
Finally, my string is about 287 chars long and the buffer dinamically
allocated for it is about 45x chars long. The buffer was allocated with
calloc().
Do you have any comments on this?? I just cannot change M2 and M3 to
OpenLDAP 1.2.13 because they are both production boxes.
Please, any help is welcome!!!
Thanks,
William Zanatta
