LDAP statistics

[Frederik]

Hello again.
Is there an easy way to get some statistics on who has logged in to the 
system - preferably by email?

This one-liner will fetch how many have logged in so far from the auth
log:

  grep 'session open' /var/log/auth.log | grep "^$(date +"%b %e")" | \
grep -v CRON | egrep -v 'root|munin|daemon|nobody'| \
rev | awk '{print $3}' | rev | sort -u | wc -l

Perhaps you can use it as a starting point?

Happy hacking,

Storing OpenLDAP configuration in LDAP...

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

One of the long term issues with Debian Edu has been the need to
modify the configuration files of openldap/slapd, to get our
configuration.  In a discussion on debian-devel@, I came across a
reference to a new feature in OpenLDAP 2.4, the cn=config feature.

If I am not mistaken, it allow us to store the configuration in the
LDAP database, thus avoiding having to edit the slapd.conf file
directly.

Anyone know how this work?  I found
http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/slapd-config.html> with some
information about it, but have not had time to look into it yet.

Happy hacking,

No Login at Thin-Client

[Andreas Lenk]

Hello,

i have a problem with my Skole-Linux-Server.
I had installed the Main-Server and the Terminal-Server on one physical
machine.
One NIC goes to 10.0. net and the other one to 192.168.0. subnet
(thin-client-subnet).

The Thin-Clients boot from the Server and everything is fine, but i cannot
login.
If I want to login with an ldap account, there comes "login failed".
If I move my /etc/passwd-file to /opt/ltsp/i386, I can log in but the comes
the failure "Cannot open kstartupconfig".

I suppose theres something with the ldap-Server (I said the lwat wich
machines are here).
But on the other site the client did not mount his HOME-Directory.

Can anybody help, please?

Lenny installer broken for Debian Edu (partman-base/parted_server missing libparted-1.7.so.1)

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Hi.  A few days now, the Debian Edu netinst CD has been broken, and
unable to install.  I had a look at why just now, and the problem is
related to libparted.

When main-menu select partman-base, this message is printed in the
log:

  parted_server: error while loading shared libraries:
  libparted-1.7.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
  directory

The library is missing in the d-i environment.  Is there some version
skew, or some udeb missing, or something else?  What can I do to solve
it?

Happy hacking,

I was just told on IRC that this is already reported,
http://bugs.debian.org/494532 >.  I see it is already being
worked on, and guess we will just have to be patient.

This sound like the users home directory was not created yet when you
tested.  It take some time (~15 minutes) from it is created in LDAP
until the home directory is created on disk.  Could this be the
problem?

Yes, please check if /skole/tjener/home0/$USERNAME does exist. 

Good luck,
Ralf

P.S.: Be welcome, as this seems to be your first posting on this list!
As soon as your lab is up and running, we'll be eager to know some 
information about the geography of your school ;)

Thanks Ralf and Petter.
The Home-Directory exists.
Does it matter at wich IP-Adress the LDAP-Server works? (10.0. or 192.168.)?

All the best, Andreas

LDAP should be running at 10.0.2.2 (tjener)
Thin clients are connected to your 192.168.0 net.

Is it possibly necessary to add the thin client server to netgroups? I 
doubt it as it is a combiserver.

Please try non-KDE login (icewm, shell). This will work in most cases 
and reveal what's wrong with ~/. (access rights? - disk full?)

Regards
Ralf

I guess now is a good time to get back to you about this.  The version
in unstable is the one we have been testing in Debian Edu the last few
days, and it seem to work fine.  It contain a code move to put it at
the correct location in the installer, and a rename of the d-i hooks
to make sure the makes reflect their position in the d-i sequence to
make sure I do not put code in the wrong location again, and finally
fix one leftover code part failing to use a HTTP proxy.  I also added
some cosmetic changes to speed up the installation and get more fine
grained information from etcinsvk, but those are not very important.
This is the changelog:

debian-edu-install (0.673) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move upgrade calls from debian-edu-add_local_apt to pre-pkgsel.d,
to make sure sources.list is updated before trying to upgrade.
  * Rename d-i hook scripts to use the name of their .d directory
as file name to make it easier to predict when a script will execute,
and avoid mistakes like the above in the future.
  * Make sure to activate etcinsvk as soon as possible, imediately after
the base system is installed, to be able to track where changes
come from.
  * Drop redundant 'aptitude update' from post-base-installer.  It is
also executed in pre-pkginst.
  * Make sure http_proxy is set when calling aptitude and cfengine, to
make sure both use a proxy when it is required.

 -- Petter Reinholdtsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>  Mon,  4 Aug 2008 20:54:53 +0200

The changes can be seen in
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-edu/trunk/src/debian-edu-install/?rev=0&sc=0 
>.

The release in Lenny is revision 44697, and the one in unstable is
revision 45670.
