One more observation: 1.
When changing
password on the client, with client pointing at slave (with chaining enabled), the
password change only goes through when the right password is supplied. 2.
But, entering a
wrong password won’t give you a password fail message. Look at this transaction, where
I enter a wrong password for password change: $ passwd Changing password for user joe. Enter login(LDAP) password: New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: LDAP password information update
failed: Strong(er) authentication required only authenticated users may
change passwords passwd: Permission denied From: Siddhartha Jain I replicated the setup and issues with slapd.d
configuration. Running OpenLDAP 2.4.21 on CentOS x64. 1. Master
and slave setup with ppolicy overlay. 2. When
client points to master, pwdFailures are duly recorded and respected. Password
auth works as expected. 3. When
clients points to slave with chaining disabled, password auth and changes work
fine but obviously pwdFailures are not recorded anywhere - neither on slave or
master. 4. When
client points to slave with chaining enabled, password auth breaks meaning user
can type any string and still get a successful auth. Interestingly, in this
case, pwdFailures get recorded on slave and master. Why or how a bind succeeds with a wrong password is
weird. With slapd.d type config, the chain directives go under
"frontendconfig" so I suspect the solution must lie there. As a sidenote, I am thinking of doing without slaves and
just creating more primaries in multi-mode replication. Seems less complicated
in terms of configuration and maintenance. Thanks, - Siddhartha > -----Original Message----- > From:
