Bug 46387 – Info missing from ldap auth guide...

• Status: VERIFIED LATER
• Product: [OLD] Docs-user

[Description Bryan Duff 2004-03-31 11:38:03 UTC]

Problem 1:
When doing an ldap ldapsearch, if you get a SASL error:

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Internal (implementation specific) error (80)
        additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database

add '-w' to your ldapsearch arguments.
----------------------
Problem2:
Before importing, get rid of the 'objectClass: account' lines from the group.ldif and passwd.ldif

sed '/^objectClass: account.*/d;' [group|passwd].ldif > [group2|passwd2].ldif
then:
ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=genfic,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/[group|passwd]2.ldif

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
ldapsearch problem:
1. ldapsearch -D "cn=Manager,dc=genfic,dc=com" -W

ldapadd problem:
1. ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=genfic,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/group.ldif
2. ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=genfic,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/passwd.ldif
Actual Results:  
ldapsearch problem:
error: 
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Internal (implementation specific) error (80)
        additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database

ldapadd problem:
error: 
no object found
(doesn't add group and passwd ldif's to database).

Expected Results:  
ldapsearch problem:
solution: add '-w' to ldapsearch arguments for simple authentication.

ldapadd problem:
solution: use the sed command on group.ldif and passwd.ldif, then try
ldapadd'ing them, mentioned in details:
sed '/^objectClass: account.*/d;' [group|passwd].ldif > [group2|passwd2].ldif
ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=genfic,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/[group|passwd]2.ldif
(it should add successfully now).

The doc is unlinked because we can't really maintain it (too little resources, too  complex material).

Closing this bug as per Josh's request in gentoo-doc's ML.
