everyone's favourit testcase, WLUS, was taken to a pit-stop, after it displayed obnoxious behaviour, especially since i had activated the samba integration code which had been untested and dead for a while.
now i found the coulpit which often lead to "bad header" or "Error: missing content type" messages. the Name Service Cache Daemon had helpfully printed out start and stop messanges, which webmin confused with the http header of the coming webpage. now, that i after two unhappy days of bug hunting, understood the problem and fixed it, i will look for potential similar problems in the quite involved user creation process. but i hope to be able to release a new and better wlus tomorrow afternoon. If you look for a challange in the mean time you can look for old skolelinux installations and try to get hold of an ldif of its ldap directory. the upgrade_ldap_backend seems to work well so far, as long as no old backups are left in /var/backups/ldap/Webmin-Ldap-Upgrade/ directory. In the current cvs version a little hack avoids that situation alltogether. But the correctness of the generated ldap database with differnt old databases as startingpoints could be verified allready. the manpage describes how the command is used during normal operation. to test if a given ldif is treated correctly, you can do this: /usr/share/webmin/ldap-users/fix_ldif -n -f -o skole.skolelinux.no < /tmp/old.ldif > /tmp/fixed.ldif /etc/init.d/slapd stop; rm -rf /var/lib/ldap/*; # this will wipe out your old ldap db! slapadd -v -l /tmp/fixed.ldif; /etc/init.d/slapd start
