Re: Configuring slapd.conf-less OpenLDAP

[Benjamin Griese <der.darude@gmail.com>]

Hi,

with slappasswd you can specify different password hash types.

Try another one.

If that still doesn't work, check if your slapd is able to "decrypt" that sort of hash.

Is the crypt/md5/etc. algorithm implemented in your slapd binary/library?

Did you compile your binary for yourself or did you use the one from your distribution?

Bye.

I'm trying to get OpenLDAP up and running on Fedora (12) using the
cn=config-based configuration.

I've changed /etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/oldCatabase={1}bdb.ldif to
point to my domain:

       olcSuffix: dc=endoframe,dc=net
       olcRootDN: cn=Manager,dc=endoframe,dc=net

And I've added:

       olcRootPW: [slappasswd output]

However, I haven't had any luck using this password:

       # ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=endoframe,dc=net" -W -f Manager.ldif
       Enter LDAP Password:
       ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Is there some other way I should be specifying the password?
