 |
|
Every few months I have another go at getting OpenLDAP working. Each time I fail. This time will be different!
I followed the HOWTO at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ldap-howto.xml to the letter apart from one small change:
I've replaced each instance of dc=genfic,dc=com with dc=nusconsulting,dc=com,dc=au as our domain is nusconsulting.com.au
Everything went fine until the part where we test the installation:
| Code: | screamer conf.d # ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=nusconsulting,dc=com,dc=au" -W
Enter LDAP Password:
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Internal (implementation specific) error (80)
additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database
screamer conf.d # |
Having never had OpenLDAP working before, I'm not really qualified to say WTF is wrong with it, other than commenting the obvious: the 'user not found' error means that there is no such user. Why not? Should this be in the HOWTO?
HELP! |

If you are on the ldap server itself try using -x [simple authentication]:
| Code: |
ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=nusconsulting,dc=com,dc=au" -W -x
