[Fedora-directory-users] question about required fields and I18N issues
by speedy zinc
How can I enter non-ascii data in the attribute,
especially for dn, last name, first name, etc, and
still can use the native language for searching?
For example, if I want to enter greeks or some eastern
european characters, how can I do that?
How do I configure the server to support i18n and have
the proper collation?
How many languages does the console support, i.e. have
the proper translation and display correctly?
I added an entry using ldapmodify, which contains
non-ascii in the DN. It seems to get it correctly, as
shown in the title bar of the property editor in the
console. But the property editor and the console does
not display correctly. The title bar displays
correctly,
though.
And the result from ldapsearch just shows a bunch of
garbage characters.
All helps appreciated.

[Fedora-directory-users] tls/ssl howto
by Ivan Ivanyi
Hi,
I've just started playing with fedora-ds and TLS by following the howto
unless I'm wrong the step-by-step certificate creation creates an
invalid certificate... I ended up generating one from cacert.org
also the following:
> Configure LDAP clients
> Modify the following in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
>
> URI ldap://example.com
> BASE dc=example,dc=com
> HOST example.com
> TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/openldap/certs/
> TLS_REQCERT allow
>
> Note: Make sure TLS_CACERTDIR exists
might lead to confusion... I initially thought everything was working
but the line TLS_REQCERT allow... allows fallback to standard ldap
shouldn't this example be
> Configure LDAP clients
> Modify the following in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
>
> URI ldaps://example.com
> BASE dc=example,dc=com
> TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/openldap/certs/
> TLS_REQCERT demand
>
> Note: Make sure TLS_CACERTDIR exists
The HOST line doesn't seem to be needed (for authentication anyways) and
again may be a bit confusing
also I couldn't get things working without a copy of cacerts pem
certificate in /etc/openldap/certs/
thanks for clarifying my mistakes/misinterpretations/changing the
howto... etc

[Fedora-directory-users] Configuring Read/Write Replicas
by Anthony Gabila
Hello all,
Can someone please explain how this is done?
a. In the Directory Server Console, select the Directory tab.
b. Create an entry.
For example, you could use cn=Replication Manager,cn=config.
(right click on config and create new user? role? group?)
c. Specify a userPassword attribute-value pair.
(haven't reached this step yet, not sure what to do with step b.)
thanks in advance.

[Fedora-directory-users] question about schema file keywords
by speedy zinc
I'm trying to define a schema that is a little more
complicated than the hello-world-equivalent, but I'd
like to know the real meaning of some keywords I
found:
NO-USER-MODIFICATION : does this mean that "self"
can't
change the value of this atttribute?
USAGE : what's that exactly? I saw something like
"USAGE directoryOperation", what's that for? What are
other usage possible?
SINGLE-VALUE : does it mean that any attribute which
does
not have this specifie is a multi-value attribute?
STRUCTURAL : not sure I understand the real meaning of
this one.
There are probably more, but these are the ones
commonly found.
thanks

[Fedora-directory-users] Directory Server and Jive Messenger
by Chad Elwartowski
I've asked on the jivesoftware forums and hit a brick wall so I figured
folks here might have better insight into this.
I'm trying to get Jive Messenger to read in my user database using LDAP.
I've tried several different configurations of the jive-messenger.xml to get
it working.
Here's my configuration:
<ldap>
<usernameField>uid</usernameField>
<nameField>cn</nameField>
<host>example.host.name.com <http://example.host.name.com></host>
<port>389</port>
<baseDN>dc=example,dc=host,dc=name,dc=com</baseDN>
<adminDN>cn=admin</adminDN>
<adminPassword>supersecretpassword</adminPassword>
<debugEnabled>true</debugEnabled>
</ldap>
I'm able to connect to my database using the firefox email address book with
this:
Hostname: example.host.name.com <http://example.host.name.com>
Base DN: dc=example,dc=host,dc=name,dc=com
Port Number: 389
I used a typical install of Fedora Directory Server with admin as the name
of my admin user. I'm not sure if I might have my settings in the correct
format or if I'm using the wrong baseDN and adminDN.
When I run through the jive messenger configuration I click through all of
the defaults, add my admin account and password and when I log in all I get
under User Summary is my admin account so it's not
seeing the LDAP database.
If anyone has any insight into this I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Chad
