Re: outlook and openldap (syslog)

So,

I added the following lines in my /etc/syslog.conf file, re-initialised syslogd and restarted slapd.

local4.err                                      /var/log/ldap
local4.debug                                    /var/log/ldap
local4.notice                                   /var/log/ldap
local4.alert                                    /var/log/ldap

Then did a simple search from Outlook with the query "Name = *" and get the following in /var/log/ldap :

...

but Outlook says "Nothing found according to search criteria"

If I run manually

ldapsearch -b "dc=twistfare,dc=be" "cn=*"

then I get the result from slapd :

version: 1
dn: cn=Manager,dc=twistfare,dc=be
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: Manager

Any clue why Outlook does not return any values back to me ?

TIA

Graham,

this is incorrect syntax for syslog.conf on my Solaris-8 box, more precisely :

<facility>.<level>

where <facility> can be LOCAL4 or *, for example, but <level> cannot be an asterisk !

Is this different on Linux ? Because on most other UNIX brands I have come accross the <level> could never be a wildcard like '*' .
Still, if someone could tell me what the <level> is used by slapd for its syslog-logging, then I can specify it to go to my logfile, even if it's multiple <level>'s .

Thanks in advance,

Rob

I had to add this to my /etc/syslog.conf on my Red Hat Linux 8.0 server in
order to get useful OpenLDAP logs.

[...begin quote...]
# Save ldap messages
local4.*                                                /var/log/ldap
[...end quote...]

Then, after making sure "loglevel 32" (or 64, or whatever) was in my
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf file, I restarted both openldap ("/sbin/service
ldap restart") and syslog ("/sbin/service syslog restart") and suddenly I
had useful log info.
