I am trying to track down the cause of some errors that have been occurring on a number of our servers using LDAP. We have noticed that when a certain LDAP group exceeds 65 users we begin seeing glibc errors for users in the group. Users that are not in the group do not exhibit this behavior. We have seen this issue on machines running Centos 4.5 x86 & x86_64 with glibc-2.3.4-2.36 and RH4

Hello, Freebsd-security. What is proper way to mix pam_ldap/nss_ldap (no users but root in local files), su(1) and check for group `wheel'? "files" source should have precedence over "ldap" in /etc/nsswitch.conf, for changing user/group by daemons before full network configuration, and for local "root" has priority over any LDAP ones. Group

Hi, I'm using Samba 2.2.4 with LDAP support (OpenLDAP 2.0.23), and with pam_ldap included in the rpm nss_ldap 1.86 from Redhat (I'm on Linux Redhat 7.2). All these things are working well (I use the same object SambaAcount under PosixAccount in order to authenticate all these things), but a problem appears when I'm trying to list all the accounts and groups from my Win2000

I keep getting the following errors when I try to log on to my domain or access a share (some how I have no clue I was able to get one computer to access the samba domain). It is a standalone PDC, ldap on the same computer. This problem has been killing me for about a week, any help would be greatly appreciated I'm running samba 3.0.9 on redhat 9 stock ldap server that comes with redhat

Hi everybody, We have a Fedora Core 1 samba server and would like to authenticate it to an LDAP server using PAM. I installed nss_ldap, configured /etc/ldap.conf to match my settings and /etc/nsswitch.conf to use ldap. My /etc/pam.d/samba is like this : #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_nologin.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_first_pass auth required

I'm (finally) getting around to putting a backup LDAP authentication server on my network. The backup uses syncrepl to grab the database, and to my eyes both LDAP servers answer read queries identically. I'm testing the client side of this configuration on virtual CentOS 5 i386 machine. /etc/ldap.conf reads ----- %< ----- base dc=DOMAIN,dc=com timelimit 30 bind_timelimit 30

hello trying to install dovecot 2 on a fresh installed machine I get this error message : doveconf -n > dovecot-new.conf doveconf: Error: ssl enabled, but ssl_cert not set doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: ssl enabled, but ssl_cert not set the ssl config file look like the following : Thanks for any info. ## ## SSL settings ## # SSL/TLS

I tried to compile pam_ldap-184 but it gave lots of error msgs. BTW, I have successfully compiled nss_ldap-255. For pam_ldap, my configure looks like: ./configure --with-ldap-lib=openldap --with-ldap-dir=/usr/local --with-ldap-conf-file=/usr/local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf and the following is the configure output --- start of configure output --- creating cache ./config.cache checking host system

Hi, I am in a very awkward situation and need some kind of immediate fix up. I had installed dovecot in my organization as part of migration of email server. The setup involves sendmail, dovecot (imaps+pop3s) and webmail (squirrelmail) running on apache webserver. All was working fine until one day I found a lot of defunct processes on system related to dovecot. dovecot-auth, imap-login and

hi all, some time ago i remember have had read (on the wiki) that dovecot couldn't work with pam against nss_ldap but i've build a setup using etch's dovecot rc15 and seems to work fine until now thru the server has a low usage (50 users). congratulations for such a nice imap server :)

Hi all, I have installed and configured dovecot on two different machines, so I don't have much experience with this server. One installation is giving me serious problems, that I have a hard time tracing. From the beginning: the machine is a debian mix (stable/unstable) dovecot 0.9.11, real users authenticated via pam_ldap/nss_ldap. It serves ~70 users, all of them using Outlook, Outlook

Hi, I found your posting below... I am in a very similar situation and just want to understand what this means a little better. I have compiled openldap and samba on a netbsd box... Not sure if your aware, but nsswitch on netbsd is not modular, and ldap is not an option for the name service backend. (freebsd and linux are not options since its not an x86 box I'm using) Anyway, my ldap

I'm trying to install "pam_ldap" on my fedora core 1 machine. It is asking for liblber.so and libldap.so dependencies even though I have them in /usr/lib. Should I just go install it with out a dependencies? what is wrong with this picture? [root@pdc rpms]# rpm -i pam_ldap*.rpm error: Failed dependencies: liblber.so is needed by pam_ldap-38-mz1 libldap.so is needed

Well I've looked forward into the wiki and did not found my server have only system users ( no virtual domain ) and the wiki says : System users If you wish you use deliver for all system users on a single domain mail host you can do it by editing mailbox_command parameter in /etc/postfix/main.cf (postconf(5)): That's what I did but then I have this problem with DOTLOCK If I chmod

Hello We are planning to convert our mailhub ( freebsd 7.4 ) from mbox format to maildir format. I've read the documentation and performed some tests on another machine it is a bit long ... I would like some feedback from guys who did this operation and need some advice on what to convert first ? - first convert INBOX then convert IMAP folders ? - first convert IMAP folders then convert

I was wondering what the best practice is for setting up several SAMBA servers in a SAMBA domain all on the same LAN. Here is what I am looking at PDC: LDAP, Samba, nss_ldap, pam_ldap Member1: Samba, nss_ldap, pam_ldap Member2: Samba, nss_ldap, pam_ldap Member . . . . Should I set the member servers up with: Security = domain and join the severs with net rpc join or, whould it be better to set

Hi All, Hope someone here can help me ? *See end for background and system information... I'm looking for advice or links to clear documentation on the use and configuration of "net vampire" and it's ability to download PDC accounts with passwords intact. I have successfully used "net vampire" to synchronize my Samba BDC -- with my companies PDC. I've switched

Goal: Have Samba operate as a PDC using LDAP as its passwd backend. Be able to have W2K servers as member servers. Note: I have not posted any .conf files, because I not sure what files would be relavent in seeing. Since somethings are working and somethings are not. Software list: Samba 3.0.12 nss_ldap-1.204_5 openldap-client-2.2.19 openldap-server-2.2.23 p5-perl-ldap-0.32.02 pam_ldap-1.7.6

Hello We are facing a boring trouble with multi OB boot machines that access to our samba server. All machines authenticate to samba PDC ( linux debian etch + windows ) It appears when machines windows's bootup the shared secret is changed by windows if we reboot the same machine under Linux it cannot authenticate anymore because Linux does NOT change the shared secret ... The machines

Hello, I have a configuration with dovecot-ldap working with openldap (on FreebSD 5.4 Release). Now I'm trying to do the same thing with an Active Directory (win2k3). I have installed an properly configured SFU. Via nss_ldap-pam_ldap is working fine (FreeBSD 6.2 Release). Because nss_ldap is reported broken with dovecot I'm trying to use dovecot-ldap for both passdb and userdb. My
