Setting up and Changing passwords for LDAP accounts
Hello everyone.
I'm back with an question regarding passwords for LDAP user accounts.
I have been trying to setup my LDAP server for authentication. I have
installed both nss_ldap and pam_ldap.
I have edited /etc/nsswitch.conf to reflect the correct changes.
I have not yet edited /etc/pam.d/system-auth.
I have gone through and created some basic data in our directory. (I should
mention there are only two user accounts on this server. We using this
server as a test server before rolling out our true LDAP server.)
I used some of the padl migration scripts.
I then migrated one user account into the database. Here is the output:
dn: uid=jwilliams,ou=user,dc=mycompany,dc=com
uid: jwilliams
cn: Jason Williams
givenName: Jason
sn: Williams
mail: jwilliams@mycompany.com
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
objectClass: shadowAccount
shadowLastChange: 12094
shadowMax: 99999
loginShell: /bin/bash2
uidNumber: 500
gidNumber: 500
homeDirectory: /home/jwilliams
gecos: Jason Williams
That is the information that was pulled from the migrate_passwd.pl script.
I then added it to the LDAP directory.
Couple quick questions:
1) I cannot seem to add a userpassword field.
2) here is what happens when I try and change the password for this user
account:
[root@nitro openldap]# ldappasswd -x -W -D
"cn=Manager,dc=courtesymortgage,dc=com" 'uid=jwilliams'
Enter bind password:
New password: cM6UM4Af
Result: No such object (32)
Additional info: could not locate authorization entry
I am missing something here and I cant put a finger on it.
Anyone have some suggestions?
Thanks everyone.
Jason
