Hello list,
I have successfully migrated our office's PCs over to Red Hat Linux 9. The system has centralized home directories via NFS, single sign-on is achieved thru LDAP and auto-update via current+up2date. The only remaining problems have to do with LDAP replication and directory design. I configured replication by following the docs at openldap.org but my boxes still can't authenticate off of the slave ldap because no data is replicated from the master to the slave (slurpd -d 65535 prints messages about one ldap user entry as "not mine..skipping" but nothing critical, at least to me). If I authenticate via the master ldap, I can log in but can't change the password via passwd (yes I'm using pam ldap plugins that came with RH9). PAM keeps exiting with an access denied error. The only way to change password is via ldapmodify. Any ideas? I'd appreciate it if someone (paging Jijo?) can send a copy of a working config. My second problem is how to design a directory that fits our organization. I get hopelessly lost with the openldap.org docs when it comes to directory (schema?) design. If anyone has a doc/url explaining the process in layman's terms, please share. I'm up to the point where I need to get an OID from IANA. Things start to get fuzzy at objectclasses :D If anyone is interested I'll be putting up a "walkthrough" webpage where they can read about our whole migration process including the configuration guides for each installation. I'll put it up after everything's done.
