[CentOS] Tracking specific fixes into backports

2009-07-28 Thread Andy Akins
I apologize if this is a simple noob question - I looked around and couldn't
find an easy answer.

My auditor presenting me with some findings re: httpd (apache) and said I
have to upgrade to the newest version. They are basing their findings on the
"version" of Apache installed - but are unaware of the fixlevel.

Is there an easy way that I can take a specific Mitre or Securityfocus issue
and see if the fix has been backported into the most up to date version of a
Centos RPM. While this particular instance is in regards to Apache, I
suspect I'll have to do this some more in the future with other RPMs as
well.

Thanks for any insight.

[CentOS] Having trouble with LDAP Authentication...

2010-05-25 Thread Andy Akins
I¹ve google and searched, and have had very little luck...

I have:

1. Installed all the packages.
2. Configured and have running OpenLDAP.
3. Migrated my passwd/shadow/group/hosts files into the directory
4. Tested the directory using ldapsearch
5. Installed LAM (web interface to LDAP authentication)
6. Added a user using LAM.
7. Confirmed user is in directory.
8. Confirmed user is not in /etc/passwd
9. Confirmed using ³getent passwd | grep username² that the user is listed.
10. Confirmed using ³getent passwd² shows two records for each user except
ldap-only users (one for /etc/passwd, one for LDAP).

However,

³id username²

Returns unknown user

And trying to log in as username at either the terminal or ssh fails, and
upon examining the logs, the error message says unknown user.

I configured /etc/pam.d/system-auth using authcongfig-tui, adding only the
pam_mkhomedir.so line (and I tried it without that line as well).

Everything seems right ­ but its not working. Can anyone offer any
suggestions as to where I should be looking? If necessary, I¹ll post my
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf, /etc/openldap/ldap.conf, /etc/pam.d/system-auth,
and /etc/nsswitch.conf files ­ I just didn¹t want to send them if not
necessary.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Ryan and Paul...

Thank you for your suggestions and help ­ I was able to track it down to
three separate things: an improper ACL, nscd, and iptables. Everything is
working fine now. Again, thanks for your insight!
