kandi X-RAY | ldapscripts Summary

ldapscripts is a Shell library typically used in Security, Identity Management, Ubuntu, Debian applications. ldapscripts has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Ldapscripts - README file. The ldapscripts are originally designed to be used within Samba 3.x's smb.conf file. They allow to manipulate POSIX entries for users, groups and machines in an LDAP directory. They are written in shell and need ldap client commands to work correctly (ldapadd, ldapdelete, ldapmodify, ldapsearch). Other scripts also are provided as simple tools to (manually) query your LDAP directory : ldapfinger, ldapid, lsldap (...). They are designed to be used under GNU/Linux or FreeBSD (any other recent UNIX-like should also work) and require several binaries that should come with your OS (uuencode, getent/pw, date, grep, sed, cut...).

ldapadduser invalid dn syntax

QUESTION

ldapadduser invalid dn syntax

Asked 2018-May-22 at 19:29

I am trying to host a centralized authentication server using ldap.

I have a working ldap server, and am using phpLDAPadmin to add/delete users.

However, when I try to add user with ldapscripts command "sudo ldapadduser george RA", following the example in https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/openldap-server.html#openldap-auth-config , it says "Error adding user george to LDAP".

When I look in /var/log/ldapscripts.log, the log message seems obscure: enter image description here

I am a newbie to this. Can someone please help? Thanks!

Turns out I wasn't familiar enough with ldap and ldapscripts,

I had to edit the config file /etc/ldapscripts/ldapscripts.conf, which requires

SUFFIX="dc=example,dc=com" : the base domain
GSUFFIX="ou=groups" : where the group ou should be
USUFFIX="ou=users" : where the users ou should be
MSUFFIX="ou=machines": where the machines ou should be

After setting he corresponding organizational units(previously added in LDAP), ldapscripts was fine to use.

Vulnerabilities

No vulnerabilities reported

Install ldapscripts

or, to define a special installation directory :.
Use 'make help' for more options. All the scripts will be copied (by default) to /usr/local/sbin and ldapscripts.conf will be copied to /usr/local/etc/ldapscripts. Keep in mind that the scripts are installed with quite restrictive rights. You may have to play with group rights or ACLs (if they are enabled on your system) to make the things work... Once installed, edit /usr/local/etc/ldapscripts/ldapscripts.conf to configure the ldapscripts.
