Problem browsing LDAP with Outlook
by Chris Bryant 26 Aug '20

26 Aug '20

When configuring Microsoft Outlook (not Outlook Express) to access an LDAP directory, there is an option to 'Enable Browsing (requires server support)'. If this option is chosen and the directory server supports it, then you should be able to open the LDAP address book and page up and down through the results. I have been unable to get this working properly with 389 DS. When I try to browse from Outlook against the 389 DS directory, I am able to see the first page of results perfectly. However, if I move to the next page, only the first object returned will have any attributes included, and all of the rest of the objects in the page will have no attributes. I have a test perl script that duplicates this functionality as well. I can get this to work properly with an older version of Netscape Directory Server, and I can get it working with OpenDS. Since 389 DS advertises support for the controls that are required for this to work, just like the other two servers, then I would expect it to work there also. Has anyone out there gotten this to work with 389 DS? If so, can you share if there was anything special that you needed to do to get this to work? I'm trying to determine if this is a bug in the server, or if I'm just missing something in the configuration. Thanks, Chris USA.NET You Run Your Business. We'll Run Your Email.

multi-valued nsAccountLock
by Pierre ROUDIER 10 Jul '15

10 Jul '15

Hi all, RedHat DS's doc states that the nsAccountLock attribute is multi-valued [1]. Some tests with 389ds led me to think it's also true for 389ds. I cannot think of any reason explaining why it would have to be multi-valued. Do you have any idea? Thank you. [1] https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server…

389 Master - Master Replication
by Santos Ramirez 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Good Morning, We have a master - master replication agreement. When we initialize the replication it works perfectly we can see changes to a test user we have set up go up and down from the two servers. However at some point the replication stops and we cannot get replication to start once again. The only way we can get replication to start once again is to recreate the replication agreement and then it fails again. Can anyone please point us in a direction. I am relatively new to 389 so any help would be greatly appreciated. Santos U.

How to specify number of hashing iterations for a password
by Richard Mixon 18 Feb '14

18 Feb '14

During the bind process is there anyway to tell 389 directory server to hash a plaintext password n (multiple) times before trying to compare to what is stored? I am trying to implement something similar to what's described in this article: http://www.stormpath.com/blog/strong-password-hashing-apache-shiro Our plan was to to use SSHA256 to hash the passwords around 200,000 times before storing. This would at least slow down any cracking attempts should someone get access to our directory. I've read through the documentation on the Red Hat Directory Server site, including the "Plug-in Guide". Under "5.8 Checking Passwords" it refers to calling function "slapi_pw_find_sv()" - looking at the doc for this function it does not look like hashing multiple times is supported. Is there some means of doing this that is not obvious to me? I can certainly do it by re-writing the security plugins for the various servers (Tomcat, PHP Wordpress, etc) such that they hash the plaintext password n minus 1 times before issuing the bind - but was hoping not to do that. I'm relatively new to 389 directory server, but so far quite happy to have moved to it from another directory server.

db2index on RHDS 9.1
by Paul Whitney 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

We are trying to reindex RHDS 9.1 after importing an updated index. Services were stopped. Started the /usr/lib64/dirsrv/slapd-instance/db2index. Reindex starts but then consistently reports: Processed 300,000 entries ( pass 1) Processed 300,000 entries ( pass 2) and keeps repeating that sequence with same amount of entries. How long does it usually take to complete the process and is there a limit or issue with this feature? This happened once before and system was left overnight performing indexing only to still processing with new passes. We ended up breaking the process and just reinitializing the server. Thank you, Paul M. Whitney E-mail: paul.whitney(a)mac.com

SQLite certutil databases for 389-ds?
by David Barr 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

Good Morning, In setting up my 389-ds instance for SSL, the dirsrv instance doesn’t appear to recognize cert9.db or key4.db, the SQLite NSS database formats. Did I miss a setting? Is 389-ds restricted to cert8.db/key3.db? A quick search of the 389-ds wiki didn’t help; Google returns a lot of noise and not much signal. # service dirsrv start Starting dirsrv: ds01...[27/Jan/2014:21:28:12 -0800] SSL Initialization - Warning: certificate DB file cert8.db nor cert7.db exists in [/etc/dirsrv/slapd-ds01] - SSL initialization will likely fail [27/Jan/2014:21:28:12 -0800] SSL Initialization - Warning: key DB file /etc/dirsrv/slapd-ds01/key3.db does not exist - SSL initialization will likely fail [27/Jan/2014:21:28:12 -0800] - SSL alert: Security Initialization: Unable to authenticate (Netscape Portable Runtime error -8192 - An I/O error occurred during security authorization.)

Reset Password as Root if User Forgets Password
by Chaudhari, Rohit K. 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

Hello, I need to be able to reset a LDAP user's password if they forget it with the user root. But when I try the "passwd" command as root for a LDAP user, I get the following: (as root) passwd tuser Changing password for user tuser. Password reset by root is not supported. passwd: Authentication token manipulation error. I am using sssd as the LDAP authentication mechanism tool, to be specific. Does anyone have a solution to dealing with this issue of resetting a LDAP user's password if they forgot it? Thanks, Rohit From: <Chaudhari>, "Rohit K.

However, I keep getting an authentication token manipulation error whenever I try to reset the password using that command. What do I need to do in the 389 DS or on Unix in order to get this command to work? Thanks, Rohit
