Hi, I installed sldap 2.4.18 on server debian squeeze (here 172.19.6.150) when Iuse the command ldapsearch -xLLL -b "dc=example,dc=com" uid=john sn givenName cn dn: uid=john,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com sn: Doe givenName: John cn: John Doe
I get correct answer I tried to do it from a remote machine where ( ubuntu 9.10 ) (IP 172.19.6.50) I installed package for authentication in this client machine *libnss-ldap ldap-auth-config I ran pam-auth-update * everything seemed correct like it is decalred in the document *http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html* I used ubuntu doc, because I have install 2.4.18 ( not present yet on squeeze), on some machine it running correctly, on other not!!!?? I got the error : ( it is running on another machine : 172.19.6.50 ) ldapsearch -xLLL -b -H ldap://172.19.6.150 "dc=example,dc=com" uid=john sn givenName cn *ldap_sasl_bind(SIMPLE): Can't contact LDAP server (-1)* in the same way , the authentication is not done ( john is created in ldap server) su - john identifier unknown : john I can do same from another machine running debian lenny. very strange I install same packages, that what I believe any idea thanks a lot
