Hello,

After installing F11, I installed OpenLdap with the command "yum -y install openldap*" And added the password obtained through the command "slappasswd -s password -h {MD5}" into /etc/openldap/slapd.conf.

Also, I specified the domain information within the file on "suffix" and "rootdn".

I'm using SLED-11 SP2 32 bit, & I'm able to compile & start the slapd on my system.

LDAP Berkeley DB 42 weeks 2 days ago

I'm trying to configure slapd on my machine and I keep getting this error. I can recover at times using db7.7_recover but not always. I see this problem if the slapd deamon is killed for any reason.

Isn't a DB supposed to be able to take care of these failures?

OpenLdap with yast 3 years 23 weeks ago

Hi,

I am trying to setup a LDAP Server to let my applications (like wiki, phpbb, ...) authenticate against ldap.

Using: openSuSe 11.1 OpenLdap 2.x (provided by software management) KDE 4.x

Yast provides an gui interface to setup and configure the ldap server, which I used.

I have just installed Openldap on Xubuntu. The slapd daemon is working and I can easily stop and start it.

I have just installed fresh Centos 6.2 with openldap and samba with yum command. I'm having a bit of issue with finding the slapd.conf file. There is a folder for slap.d/ but no conf file in it by default. I can see folders

cacerts schema sldap.d

and ldap.conf file.

I have also checked in Fedora 15 and found same situation taht there is no slapd.conf file. So now where to start ?

I'm trying to install an openldap server (slapd) on a Debian EC2 instance. I have followed all the instructions I can find, and am using the recommended slapd-config approach to configuration.
