RE: OpenLDAP RPM's (Was: Re: SLAPD Freezing)



Ingo, (or anyone who can help me).

Thanks for doing the RPMs of OpenLDAP! I've been having some problems
getting ldap going on my RedHat 5.1 system so I just tried your rpms.

The install looks great, I like the /etc/ldap/ location for config files.

* I edited /etc/ldap/slapd.conf as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------
include         /etc/ldap/slapd.at.conf
include         /etc/ldap/slapd.oc.conf
schemacheck     off
referral        ldap://ldap.itd.umich.edu

#######################################################################
# ldbm database definitions
#######################################################################

database        ldbm
suffix          "o=Whitesmiths, c=AU"
directory       /usr/tmp
rootdn          "cn=root, o=Whitesmiths, c=AU"
rootpw          secret
-----------------------------------------------------------------

* I started it with /etc/rc.d/init.d/ldap start
Starting Directory Services: slapd

* I added some entries that look like this:
--------------------------------------------------
dn: cn=Peter Marks,o=Whitesmiths,c=AU
objectClass: person
cn: Peter Marks
sn: Marks
telephonenumber: 02 9975 7424
homephone: 02 9401 9429
mail: marksp@anoth.ns.wsa.com.au

dn: cn=Paul Stilgoe,o=Whitesmiths,c=AU
objectClass: person
cn: Paul Stilgoe
sn: Stilgoe
mail: stilgoep@anoth.ns.wsa.com.au
.. and so on
---------------------------------------------------
* by using this command and I get the error shown below:
[root@vd2000216 peterm]# ldapadd -D 'cn=root,c=AU' -w secret -f
ldapaddInput.txt
ldap_bind: DSA is unavailable

----------------------------------------------------
* further if I do a search:

[root@vd2000216 peterm]# ldapsearch 'objectclass=*'
ldap_search: No such object

----------------------------------------------

Anyway, sorry this is so long, but I wanted to give all pertinent details.

Any help would be most welcome.

use them at your own risk -- they run fine here, but no guarantees.

Of course, I'd love to see comments on how to improve the RPM's, just send
them to me or to the list. I only tested them on RedHat 4.2 (libc5) and
Redhat 5.1 (for the glibc ones) and I'd like to hear from Debian folks.
