ldap CentOS6 Configuration

ldap Centos 6 Configuration

======== 1 ==========

# yum install ldap-servers ldap-clients

copy slapd.conf from the old to the new server
# scp -p rhel5server:/etc/openldap/slapd.conf /etc/openldap

edit /etc/sysconfig/ldap if you want to change settings
# vi /etc/sysconfig/ldap

adapt slapd.conf to the new servername and possibly cert and key locations
# vi /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

Disable the whole cn=config mess
# mv /etc/openldap/slapd.d /etc/openldap.slapd.d.org

start the server
# service slapd restart


========== 2 ==========

----------------------- /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

database bdb
suffix "o=localhost.localdomain"
rootdn "cn=Manager,o=localhost.localdomain"
rootpw secret

------------------------- root.ldif

dn: o=localhost.localdomain
objectclass: dcobject
objectClass: organization
o: localhost.localdomain
dc: localhost

-------------------------- add user

[saju@localhost Desktop]$ ldapadd -x -D 'cn=Manager,o=localhost.localdomain' -W -f root.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
adding new entry "o=localhost.localdomain"

# The next three lines allow use of TLS for encrypting connections using a
# dummy test certificate which you can generate by changing to
# /etc/pki/tls/certs, running "make slapd.pem", and fixing permissions on
# slapd.pem so that the ldap user or group can read it. Your client software
# may balk at self-signed certificates, however.
# TLSCACertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
# TLSCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/slapd.pem
# TLSCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/slapd.pem

# Sample security restrictions
# Require integrity protection (prevent hijacking)
# Require 112-bit (3DES or better) encryption for updates
# Require 63-bit encryption for simple bind
# security ssf=1 update_ssf=112 simple_bind=64

# Sample access control policy:
# Root DSE: allow anyone to read it
# Subschema (sub)entry DSE: allow anyone to read it
# Other DSEs:
# Allow self write access
# Allow authenticated users read access
# Allow anonymous users to authenticate
# Directives needed to implement policy:
# access to dn.base="" by * read
# access to dn.base="cn=Subschema" by * read
# access to *
# by self write
# by users read
# by anonymous auth
#
# if no access controls are present, the default policy
# allows anyone and everyone to read anything but restricts
# updates to rootdn. (e.g., "access to * by * read")
#
# rootdn can always read and write EVERYTHING!
