Re: Unable to edit cn=config

I tried adding the olcRootDN manually but slapd would not start. So I can't add this in manually.

I tried loading it in this way: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-technical/201211/msg00195.html

But I'm unable to load it:

slapadd -n0 -F /etc/ldap/slapd.d -l /tmp/config-in-portable-format.ldif

51cdbb3f str2entry: invalid value for attributeType olcRootDN #0 (syntax 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.12)

slapadd: could not parse entry (line=16)

_ 1.63% eta none elapsed none spd 1.1 M/s

Closing DB...

Line=16 is the olcRootDN.

Is there another way I can load it in?

Hi Dan, I'm still hitting my head against the wall on this one.

I shutdown slapd and opened /etc/ldap/slap.d/cn=config/cn=module{0}.ldif
I then added" olcAuthzRegexp:
{0}"gidNumber=0\+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth"
"cn=admin,dc=domain,dc=net"" at the bottom.
I then restarted slapd.
I ran "sudo ldapwhoami -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:///"

SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
SASL username: gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
SASL SSF: 0
dn:cn=admin,dc=onerecovery,dc=net

Looks good.

I then try to add the module again:
sudo ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f smbkrb5pwd_load.ldif
SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
SASL username: gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
SASL SSF: 0
modifying entry "cn=module{0},cn=config"
ldap_modify: Insufficient access (50)

You still need to make cn=admin,dc=onerecovery,dc=net the olcRootDN. You
don't need an olcRootPW in this instance.

Since you decided to manually edit the /etc/ldap/slap.d/cn=config/
hierarchy manually, which is not recommended, you should backup your config
with slapcat before proceeding, in case your config gets corrupted.

Or by creating an olcAuthzRegexp rule like:

dn: cn=config
olcAuthzRegexp: {0}"gidNumber=0\+uidNumber=0,**cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=
**auth" "cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org"

and setting your olcRootDN to:

dn: olcDatabase={0}config,cn=**config
olcRootDN: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=org

Since you don't have any of the above config in place, you have a chicken
and egg problem with manipulating your configuration. You should dump it to
portable ldif to modify it. See:
