Problem browsing LDAP with Outlook
by Chris Bryant
When configuring Microsoft Outlook (not Outlook Express) to access an LDAP directory, there is an option to 'Enable Browsing (requires server support)'. If this option is chosen and the directory server supports it, then you should be able to open the LDAP address book and page up and down through the results. I have been unable to get this working properly with 389 DS.
When I try to browse from Outlook against the 389 DS directory, I am able to see the first page of results perfectly. However, if I move to the next page, only the first object returned will have any attributes included, and all of the rest of the objects in the page will have no attributes. I have a test perl script that duplicates this functionality as well.
I can get this to work properly with an older version of Netscape Directory Server, and I can get it working with OpenDS. Since 389 DS advertises support for the controls that are required for this to work, just like the other two servers, then I would expect it to work there also.
Has anyone out there gotten this to work with 389 DS? If so, can you share if there was anything special that you needed to do to get this to work? I'm trying to determine if this is a bug in the server, or if I'm just missing something in the configuration.
Thanks,
Chris

MemberOf group restrictions to a client system (server and client running CentOS 7)
by Janet Houser
Hi,
I'm new to 389-ds and last week downloaded and installed the software.
I have a running instance of the server, and I've added TLS/SSL. I've configured a CentOS 7 client to be able to query
the server using TLS/SSL, and all appears working.
I've created users and groups on the 389-ds server successfully. For each user and group, I've enabled posix attributes and my client
can see the unix users and groups using the "getent password" or "getent group" commands.
Now, here's where I'm getting tripped up..........
I need to limit which users have access to which systems. I've been trying to do this via memberOf group limitations.
I found the following online resource (https://thornelabs.net/2013/01/28/aix-restrict-server-login-via-ldap-grou...)
which is close enough to CentOS that the initial commands worked.
I enabled the MemberOf plugin and changed the attributes per the link, and restarted the system.
I created a test group (that I didn't enable a posix GID) and tried to add a single user via:
Right click on group -- > click Properties --> then Members --> click Add --> Search for user --> click Add.
When I try to go this route (which worked before enabling the memberOf plugin) it worked. Now it seems I get the error:
"Cannot save to directory server.
netscape.ldap.LDAPException: error resiult(65): Object class violation"
And the messages file throws the error (/var/log/dirsrv/slapd-<instancename>/errors:
"Entry "uid=test,ou=People,dc=int,dc=com" -- attribute "memberOf" not allowed
[17/Feb/2016:11:22:58 -0700] memberof-plugin - memberof_postop_modify: failed to add dn (cn=testgroup,ou=Groups,dc=int,dc=com) to target. Error (65)"
So it seems my server isn't quite using the memberOf plugin properly, but I'm not sure what else to enable. I'll have to solve this issue before
I even try to filter login access via groups on my client system.
I should mention that if I go under the advanced tab for one of the groups I created, I can add the the attribute "uniquemember", but I'm not sure what I
should set the "value" to be.
I've tried creating new users to see if I could set their "uniquemember" attributes, but no luck. It seems that I don't have the ability to set this attribute
on individual users, only groups.
This might not be the right road to head down when trying to restrict access to servers via groups, so I'm open to any suggestions.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

ldapsearch doesn't return the userpassword field
by Janet Houser
Hi,
I've been looking through the archives for information, but I haven't stumbled on a solution to my problem.
I'm running ds-389 (389-ds-base-1.3.4.0) on a centos 7 box (CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511). I have a centos OS client configured using SSL/TLS
which queries the LDAP server. Per a previous thread, I configured the memeberOf plugin and all seems to be working properly.
I have a php script that will run on the client and change the LDAP password for the user. The problem is, the script looks for the SSHA has
of the password when an ldapsearch is issued.
However, when I issue a general ldapsearch (anonymously) I don't get the userpassword field. I read in your archives that I might have
to be the "directory manager" user in order to see the hashed password. I've been playing around with the ldapsearch syntax, but I can't
quite get it right.
Anyway, my question is, can I set a flag in 389-ds that will display the hashed userpassword? I think that will solve my problem with the php script returning an error that it can't retrieve the old password.
Thanks,

ldapsearch to get lastlogintime info
by Tus
Hello 389-users:
I'm looking to query ldap to get all uid's that have lastlogintime>90
days. I'm able to get lastlogintime using the command below. What is the
the syntax to get it to search all users with lastlogintime>90 days?
# ldapsearch -xLLL uid=testuser "(objectclass=*)" lastlogintime
dn: uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=testdomain,dc=test,dc=com
lastlogintime: 20170115162807Z
I'm running 389 ds-1.2.2 on CentOS 6.

Adding the postfix book schema to 389-ds
by Will Merkens
I have been trying to add a schema to 389-ds based on this blog article
http://acidx.net/wordpress/2014/06/installing-a-mailserver-with-postfix-d...
The article was based around generic openldap, I used it only as a general guide.
The schema listed in the article called postfix-book scheme <http://www.postfix-buch.com/downloads.php>. is what I was interested in.
In the openldap scenario I saw they converted the schema to a ldif file which I did dry run and the notes on converting it worked but when I looked at
duplicating it under 389-ds I saw that all the base schema's were already ldif's and I did not see the source schema's that the conversion notes said I would need.
I did add the Objectclass from the postfix book schema manually and then the attributes but I could not seem to figure out how to link the object class I
created to the users. I can see that a user has "posixAccount, inetorgperson, organizationalPerson, person, top" as Object class's. I wanted to add my Object
class PostfixBookMailAccount so the attributes used by that object class would be available to all user accounts.
If I am going about this the wrong way please feel free to enlighten me.

Windows Passsync - Invalid password syntax
by Lucas Sweany
Does anyone know the specific limitations on the allowed characters for
passwords in 389-ds? I use the windows passsync agent on my domain
controllers and occasionally come across this problem. I am thinking there
might be a unicode problem, but I am having a hard time nailing it down, or
finding documentation on it for that matter.
Example event from 389-ds:
[24/Apr/2017:07:39:15 +0000] conn=268899 op=2 MOD
dn="uid=xxx,ou=yyy,dc=a,dc=b,dc=c", invalid password syntax

windows sync, old users without password reset
by Kapetanakis Giannis
Hi,
I'd like to migrate from ODSEE and PSW to 389 directory server with windows sync.
From my understanding after reading the redhat 10/9 Directory Server documentation,
existing user's password from AD will not be synced to LDAP.
This of course is normal since passwords are already hashed in AD.
However in SUN/Oracle ODSEE+PSW they were doing this:
A special attributed was added to new synced users in LDAP. On user bind to the LDAP server,
the password was caught (by the LDAP server plugin) and a second bind was tested from the LDAP server itself to the AD server.
If the 2nd bind was successful the userPassword was updated on the LDAP server, the attribute was removed and the 1st bind was ok.
Since I have a large AD forest (30K users) I don't want to do password reset on these old users.
What is the common practice with 389 server for such scenario?
Sun also had another nice feature: Uni directional sync Windows->LDAP for user create/delete but
bi-directional attribute/password change. I guess this also not supported in 389 correct?
thanks in advance,
Giannis
