[Fedora-directory-users] Setting ACIs
by Yanik Proulx
Hi,
I'm new to FDS and have a (stupid ?) question about ACI.
First : where do I set them ? I looked at the dse.ldif file, but I don't
believe it's in there.
Second : how would a rule allowing members of "Directory Administrators"
to essentially do everything look like ?
Thanks for hte help.

[Fedora-directory-users] mail aliases
by Craig White
What I used to do in openldap was use an objectclass
inetLocalMailRecipient which was defined in the 'misc.schema' and my
primary usage was to use an attribute inetLocalMailAddress to stuff
additional addresses as aliases because I struggled with multiple values
in the mail attribute.
Obviously I can import the openldap schema that I was using into FDS but
now I am thinking that it is probably a better idea to re-examine my
usage.
To reduce my questions to basic...
- is the mail attribute multi-valued?
- How do I determine which attributes are multi-valued?
- Is there an attribute better used for mail aliases?
Thanks

[Fedora-directory-users] \x80F\x01\x03\x01 console admin request
by Kevin M. Myer
On initial console connection attempts, the admin server logs the
following entry:
XX.XX.XX.XX - - [12/Dec/2005:09:46:59 -0500] "\x80F\x01\x03\x01" 302 291
I did a packet capture and can see the same data coming from the
console to the remote server.
Is this an expected request?

[Fedora-directory-users] Public key based authentication with Redhat Directory Server
by Jimmy Stewpot
Hello,
Is it possible with Redhat Directory Server to use public key
authentication for all our Linux based servers?. Currently we have it
setup individually for each system. However we would like to go to a
centrally managed solution to keep it easy and allow us to scale much more
effectivly.
Any advice would be great.
Regards,
Jimmy

[Fedora-directory-users] Samba3 and FDS (schema problem and workaround)
by Giovanni P. Tirloni
Hi,
I was following the instructions at [1] and I found an error regarding
how Samba tries to add its domain to the directory.
[12/Dec/2005:11:18:36 -0200] - Entry
"sambaDomainName=MYDOMAIN,dc=example,dc=com" -- attribute "objectClass"
not allowed
It seems like a schema verification problem. Anyway, my fix was to add
it manually with the following LDIF:
dn: sambaDomainName=MYDOMAIN,dc=example,dc=com
objectclass: sambaDomain
objectclass: sambaUnixIDPool
objectclass: top
sambaDomainName: MYDOMAIN
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-1803520230-1543781662-649387223
uidNumber: 550
gidNumber: 550
The SID is the one I got from a previous install using OpenLDAP. After
forcing the add of MYDOMAIN the command 'net getlocalsid' works and
reports another SID which I've altered updated in the directory.
Just in case anyone has got the same problem.. I'll repeat the process
another time and try to write a small tutorial on it.

[Fedora-directory-users] migrating from flat files to fedora directory...
by Steve Strong
... seems harder than I thought. I can't get Ldapimport to do anything
and it doesn't display any errors and the old fedora 4
/usr/share/openldap/migration scripts all die with a message saying
there is not "require" command.
thanks in advance for the help,
steve

[Fedora-directory-users] ACI
by Craig White
I suppose being the newbie - I have to ask the obligatory ACI
questions...
;-)
I have personal address books...each user would have one - i.e.
ou=AddressBook,uid=craig,ou=People,dc=azapple,dc=com
ou=AddressBook,uid=jennifer,ou=People,dc=azapple,dc=com
and my thinking is that each person can read/write/delete/etc. their own
address book, authenticated users can read and anonymous is denied.
Thus I created 3 rules and they aren't working because an
unauthenticated/anonymous bind still can view them...
These are the 3 rules (which are applied to ou=People with the
expectation that each address book would inherit)...
(targetattr = "*") (target =
"ldap:///ou=AddressBook,uid=*,ou=People,dc=azapple,dc=com") (version
3.0;acl "Personal Address Books Owner";allow (all)(userdn =
"ldap:///self");)
(targetattr = "*") (target =
"ldap:///ou=AddressBook,uid=*,ou=People,dc=azapple,dc=com") (version
3.0;acl "Personal Address Books Non Owner";allow
(read,compare,search)(userdn = "ldap:///all");)
(targetattr = "") (target = "ldap:///ou=AddressBook,uid=*,ou=People,
dc=azapple,dc=com") (version 3.0;acl "Personal Address Books";deny
(all)(userdn = "ldap:///anyone");)
are these supposed to be separate rules or combined into 1 rule?
and lastly...despite the documentation, I can't get ldapsearch to return
the list of ACI's...
./ldapsearch -h localhost -D 'cn=Directory Manager' -w - '(aci=*)'
whether I use the ldapsearch client from fedora-ds or the one from
openldap-clients

Wrong. Client certs are only needed if you want to do certificate-based
client authentication, and the default settings do not require them. Of
course, the TLS_CACERT directive, as the name suggests, is for setting
the path to the CA cert, and by default it *is* required. I think your
terminology is imprecise here, so that may be confusing the issue.

Again, the poster was referring to the CA cert on the client, not a
"client cert," so dragging that into the discussion is only muddying things.
Note that the original poster used TLS_CACERT and TLS_CACERTDIR and the
OpenLDAP docs specifically state to use only one or the other, and in
general, not to use TLS_CACERTDIR at all. This is the real error;
TLS_CACERT must be a fully qualified path to a certificate file.
