Re: pam-ldap headaches
I am so sorry, I just realised why I was not seeing my posts in the
archives. Helps if you change to most recent pages. I was posting without
being a member and thought maybe debial was dropping my posts for some
reason), my last post was being a member.
So to the entire list, I apoligise for my multiple posts.
Back to the problem I am having.
I am doing nothing especially difficult. All were done with simple
installing libpam-ldap following the prompts.
Of 5 machines I have tried this on only one is working. The others all
give the error ldap_simple_bind: cannot connect to server.
My config is simple
host ldap.vu.edu.au
base o=vu.edu.au
ldap_version 3
port 389
pam_password clear
No TLS or SSL is being used at this point. my /etc/pam.d/smtp is the
sample one.
auth sufficient pam_ldap.so
auth required pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass
THis configuration is working on another machine. I have even gone over
one of the machines ensuring the package versions, and their dependencies
match.
Watching the network, I can see pam_ldap doing a lookup for ldap.vu.edu.au
- and getting a result, it looksup a AAAA record for ldap.vu.edu.au then
AAAA for ldap.vu.edu.au.its.vu.edu.au then finally looks up A for
ldap.vu.edu.au and gets an IP address. But it never attempts to connect.
For some reason, and I don;t know why ldap_simple_bind fails without
attempting to connect the host.
I will keep nuttering this out, thatnks for trying to help, and again
sorry for the multiposts.
Cheers,
Stewart
