Hi,

It's like I am talking to my self..:-) (third posting to myself..:))

Anyway, I was looking at the message that I posted and found that in my 
openca config file the option
--with-ldap-root="cn=Manager, o=ODU PKI ,c=US" \

has o=ODU PKI ,
I mean the coma ',' is after a white space after the value ODU PKI.
Is that a problem? Is that why openCA read is as just o=ODU as it adds jut 
o=ODU in the ldap.conf under OpenCA/etc/srever of OpenCA root directory.

***More details below..

Thanks a lot...

Pavan Sura.

Subject: [Openca-Users] Improting configuration on RA: Ldap error: Failed in 
Bind: 2
Date: Sun, 08 Sep 2002 19:23:56 -0400

Hi,

After going through the archieves of OpenLdap I figured out the Bind 2 error 
problem. Some one asked to add "allow bind_v2" in the slapd.conf file and 
now __IT WORKS after adding this line.
It looks like OpenCA by default is looking for version 2 of Ldap and in 
Ldap, version 2 is disabled by default.
I didnot know how to enable version 3 of Ldap in openca so after making 
slapd.conf to accept version 2 requests it works.

I __DONOT get the error in the __FIRST line below anymore

"Importing CA-Certificates into ldap ... Failed in Bind: 2
Cannot write CA-Certificate 75a5cb34d97a8ba44c4279fcb32eb8f4 to LDAP"


But the second line still shows up when i tried to import the configuration 
on htdocs-online site (RAServer Init).

The problem I geuss is that the CA cert has O=ODU in it
and in the slapd.conf I have:

database        bdb
suffix          "o=ODU PKI, c=US"
rootdn          "cn=Manager, o=ODU PKI, c=US"
rootpw          secret

And in my openca configure file I gave the following ldap options

  --with-ldap-url=dot.cs.odu.edu \
  --with-ldap-port=9009 \
  --with-ldap-root="cn=Manager, o=ODU PKI ,c=US" \
  --with-ldap-root-pwd="secret" \

As I mentioned in my previous mail, When I checked my ldap.conf file under 
etc/srever of OpenCA I found that the basedn is set to "o=ODU, c=US" (which 
is done automatically while installing OpenCA). But if I am correct this 
should be same as suffix of slapd.conf of ldap (as seen above) o=ODU PKI 
unlike 0=ODU here

I guess openca is missing to add the PKI part of 0=ODU PKI while installing 
OpenCA.

Now I am ready to reinstall OpenCA with modified options changing o=ODU PKI 
to 0=ODU as my CA certificate has o=ODU.

But before that I would appreciate if some one could clarify me with the 
below two more doubts. I can then modify any files if required and reinstall 
OpenCA. I asked these questions in my previous mail also...

1. when i looked at certsMail file under OpenCA/lib/servers/ra directory it 
read the following urls besided other information
=======================================================================
"follow the proposed link to import the certificate directly from the server 
https://dot.cs.odu.edu/cgi-bin/cgi-public/pki?cmd=getcert&key=@SERIAL@&type=CERTIFICATE
Please, import the CA certificate (or the PKI chain) from our server
to check the correctness of your certificate:
https://dot.cs.odu.edu/htdocs-public";
======================================================================

those links won't work as my htdocs-public is running on port 8888.
It shoud be some thing like https://dot.cs.odu.edu:8888/htdocs-public


2. in the https://dot.cs.odu.edu:4443/htdocs-ldap/ page in the Utilities 
part, the Ldap Search link is not seen...I just see a plain "Ldap Search" 
text without any link to it...? Any pointers..


Also i donot if this is an error but the slapd deamon shows this line for 
any requet:
ber_get_next on fd 11 failed errno=11 (Resource temporarily unavailable)

Thanks a lot for all your help.

Pavan Sura.
