I did so.
I had some rough times trying to get through the compilation process (of
version 2.4.21), because test 44 kept failing - then I disabled the
dynlist overlay which tests the dynlist and compilation succeeded fine.
The server works, too.
But the original problem has not gone away. As soon as I try
ldappasswd-ing with the smb5kpwd overlay enabled, the process hangs (at
least, if authentication of the user I test this with, succeeds). The
module is off course compiled from the contrib tree of 2.4.21.
OK, I finally figured it out. It was a configuration issue after all -
you need to put the "overlay" directive behind the "database" directive.
Otherwise the server wil start fine (without crash, errors or complaint
about syntax), but refuse to actually execute the password change
operation.
As noted in the man pages?
GENERAL DATABASE OPTIONS
overlay <overlay-name>
Add the specified overlay to this database. An overlay is a
piece of code that intercepts database operations in order to
extend or change them. Overlays are pushed onto a stack over the
database, and so they will execute in the reverse of the order
in which they were configured and the database itself will
receive control last of all. See the slapd.overlays(5) manual
page for an overview of the available overlays. Note that all
of the database's regular settings should be configured before
any overlay settings.
