ldapsearch in openldap problem



Plz see below the output of  ldapsearch using -x and -D options:-

Please find enclosed the slapd.conf and /etc/ldap.conf files herewith in text format.

Please let me know why i am getting these errors. Had been trying since a few months for successful authentication. studied gssapi,sasl, etc types of authentication mechanisms. It seems no ways other than this list for deep insights into ldapsearch and then sucessful authentication!!

1)
[root@authdns openldap]# ldapsearch -D 'dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in' '(uid=jmaan*)'
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
Please enter your password:
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49)
        additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database
[root@authdns openldap]#

2) When ldapsearch is used with -x -b the output is shown as below:-

[root@authdns openldap]# ldapsearch  -x -b  'dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in' '(uid=jmaan*)'
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in> with scope subtree
# filter: (uid=jmaan*)
# requesting: ALL
#

# jmaan, non-teach, compcen, nits.ac.in
dn: uid=jmaan,stornt=non-teach,bn=compcen,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in
uid: jmaan
cn: jmaan
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 623
gidNumber: 623
homeDirectory: /home/jmaan

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

In the below output, i have tried using the "Manager"'s password as well as "uid"'s password to lon on to the server, but in both the cases, the authentication could not be successful:-

[root@authdns ~]# ldapsearch -b 'dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in' '(uid=jmaan*)'
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
Please enter your password:
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49)
        additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database
[root@authdns ~]#

The output of ldapwhoami command is as shown below with -x and -D options:-

[root@authdns openldap]# ldapwhoami  -D "cn=Manager,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in " -W
Enter LDAP Password:
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49)
        additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database
[root@authdns openldap]# ldapwhoami -x  -D "cn=Manager,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in " -W
Enter LDAP Password:
dn:cn=Manager,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in
Result: Success (0)
[root@authdns openldap]#

[root@authdns openldap]# ldapwhoami -x  "cn=Manager,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in "
anonymous
Result: Success (0)
[root@authdns openldap]#

Is it necessary to create a userid and a password in the sasldb using saslpasswd2 :-
Though i created a saslpasswd2 for the user "jmaan" for performing the ldapsearch, without using -x, it is yet not successful.

Please give me hints why it is as such unsuccessful and shown above, without std output from the console.

One more thind my ldap server is on Linux fedora o.s.

Thanking you in anticipation,
