Hi list! New poster, newish (couple of weeks) ldap user. Red Hat 7.2, kernel 2.1.14, whlole system vastly updated since the 7.2 install. gcc 3.0.4. Openldap 2.1.2 self compiled (because the Red Hat 2.0.2 rpms were useless for me, if I was to follow the Openldap Admin Guide. None of the clients worked. They all do with the self compiled stuff). gdbm database, GQ 0.6 Beta2. Absolutely top. All the above work perfectly :c) if one can be bothered to read the guide through, mark it and learn it. And read other stuff on the web, and practice. No problem. GQ helps enormously too, in learning the directory structure(s). Many thanks to the dev and doc people behind the project. Personally, I find it beautifully and very professionally put together. Do you know, there was not one single warning during the whole compile nor test? Very unusual. Problem: I can't authenticate to Ximian Evolution 1.0.5 / 1.0.8. I know all about the slapd debug options and compare Evolution and GQ where the server sends back the same answer to an auth request, i.e. cleatext password (at the moment, I'm learning) for the client to compare. GQ accepts it, Evolution dies. Whatever I do, however I authenticate. It works without authentication, but the I can't write to the ldap server, which is not what I want. And not what Ximian originally intended. Does anyone have an answer for this? No one iin the Ximian Evo archives seems to have noticed this. It seems that there's a protocol problem. As a comparison, both Netscape 4.9 and Mozilla worked with the Red Hat 2.0.2 stuff, now Netscape doesn't work any more, but Mozilla stays working. Evo authorisation never worked. Anyway, many thanks and best, Tony and the 6 house cats (furry sort) -- Tony Earnshaw e-post: tonni@billy.demon.nl www: http://www.billy.demon.nl gpg public key: http://www.billy.demon.nl/tonni.armor Telefoon: (+31) (0)172 530428 Mobiel: (+31) (0)6 51153356 GPG Fingerprint = 3924 6BF8 A755 DE1A 4AD6 FA2B F7D7 6051 3BE7 B981 3BE7B981
