anybody running dhcpd & LDAP ?

[Jiri Popelka]

dhcpd upstream is going to merge some LDAP related patches that various
distributions use and I've been asked if I can help with testing.
Original message:
"We are now finishing the work on adding some of the LDAP patches into
our code base. We have tried our patch to verify that it builds but we
don't have a set up to verify that the LDAP portion works correctly. (As
this continues to be classified as contributed code we don't have the
time to properly verify it.)"

I haven't tried dhcpd with LDAP myself, but I promised to ask if there's
any volunteer with such experience.

In case you're willing to help testing it, 'dnf copr enable
jpopelka/dhcp-ldap-auth' is all you need to do to enable the testing
repo (https://copr.fedoraproject.org/coprs/jpopelka/dhcp-ldap-auth/).
Then please send feedback to me (CC sar(a)isc.org).

Thank you.

Is this discussed anywhere publicly? I was unable
to find any discussion
on dhcp-users@ or dhcp-workers@ mailing lists. Where can I find patches?

We have a design and half-baked implementation fleshed out for
FreeIPA/dhcpd integration (FreeIPA is LDAP store at one side).
See
  https://www.freeipa.org/page/DHCP_Integration_Design
  https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/939
  https://bitbucket.org/Firstyear/freeipa-dhcp

Looking at your srpm from the COPR, I can see that you included the
patches William Brown developed as part of the work above, which is
good.

Jiri, I think we can arrange something with
FreeIPA. Perhaps Jan (in
 CC:) could set you up an environment?

My srpm in the COPR is the only place so far. The patch was sent to me
before they push it into the public repo and release 4.3.3-beta.

Yes and I first asked William, but he hasn't replied yet, so I'm trying
wider audience here.
