Hi RADIATOR team, I've got a problem with Version 4.7 and AuthBy LDAP2. The LDAP server terminates the connection after 10min of client idle as configured in slapd.conf.
Seems that the RADIATOR doesn't recognize this, and the first ACCESS-REQUEST after this termination gets the following error: Wed Apr 6 00:32:34 2011: ERR: ldap search for (|(mail=foo)(uid=bar)) failed with error LDAP_SERVER_DOWN. Wed Apr 6 00:32:34 2011: ERR: Disconnecting from LDAP server (server foo.uni-ulm.de:636). Wed Apr 6 00:32:34 2011: DEBUG: AuthBy LDAP2 result: IGNORE, User database access error See the config part below: <AuthBy LDAP2> PacketTrace HoldServerConnection NoDefault Host foo.uni-ulm.de Version 3 FailureBackoffTime 3 UseSSL SSLVerify require SSLCAFile %D/certificates/ca-bundle.crt AuthDN cn=secret AuthPassword more-secret BaseDN ou=bar,dc=uni-ulm,dc=de Scope one # username oder e-mail SearchFilter (|(mail=%1)(uid=%1)) PasswordAttr userPassword </AuthBy> The next ACCEES-REQUEST opens the LDAP connection again, but the first one after the disconnect didn't get the chance to retry: Wed Apr 6 00:20:21 2011: INFO: Connecting to foo.uni-ulm.de:636 Wed Apr 6 00:20:21 2011: INFO: Attempting to bind to LDAP server foo.uni-ulm.de:636 Wed Apr 6 00:20:21 2011: DEBUG: LDAP got result for uid=... First: The RADIATOR does not recognize the termination by the LDAP server Second: There is no 'Retry' parameter for AuthBy LDAP2 for such a case. Any tip welcome. Maybe I've to disable 'HoldServerConnection' until there is an other solution. Best Regards Charly HINTS: I didn't see this problem with RADIATOR 3.11. Sigh, I can't go back to 3.11 to verify it definitely. Sigh, I know, it's a big step from 3.11 to 4.7. The LDAP server didn't change during the RADIATOR upgrade. We are using an openldap-2.3.35 under SunOS 5.10 and openssl-0.9.8-latest. -- Karl Gaissmaier Kommunikations und Informationszentrum kiz der Universität Ulm Abteilung Infrastruktur SG Netzwerk und Telekommunikation 89069 Ulm Tel.: 49(0)731/50-22499 Fax : 49(0)731/50-1222499 _______________________________________________ radiator mailing list radiator@open.com.au http://www.open.com.au/mailman/listinfo/radiator
