Re: LDAP - EASY understanding HOWTO

do you mean samba/ldap or just ldap? if its samba/ldap then try this http://www.idealx.org/prj/samba/smbldap … html#htoc1

if not i'm sure you could still learn a thing from looking at that guide...

openldap I assume, what are you having problems with the schema or acls? How does your slapd.conf look? openldap has some good documentation to at least get it up and running.

Re: LDAP - EASY understanding HOWTO

I have got it to work - as following the documents on open LDAP... When I run a LDAPSEARCH on the server it finds the accounts and so on. But when I´m running it on a client, it can not find the  server....  I´ve double check the conf files and so on... In etc/hosts.deny I have uncomment the line All:all, and can ssh into the machine, but the clients can´t find the server... Got an Ide of what that can be ???

does your ldapsearch command look like this:

ldapsearch -x -H ldap://LDAPSERVER -D cn=rootdn -w rootpass 

other than that, I don't know what else could be wrong as long as slapd is running.

Re: LDAP - EASY understanding HOWTO

Yes it does -
it looks like that - but I can´t get the client to find it..
They are just connected using a switch.. everything else is working great
So I can´t figure out what is wrong
