I noticed that you have ldap setup for postfix and egroupware. Would it be possible for you to tell us what the flow is in setting up ldap?

Is that done thru PHPldapAdmin?

any input on how to proceed with setting up ldap, would be appreciated.

thanks

I tried to login to PHPldapAdmin but it tells me user name and password are incorrect.

I changed root's password so logging with toor or the new root password does not work. I thinking I need to generate something with ldap?

Ldap password it's written in /et/openldap/slapd.conf
Doesn't have to do with /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow.
What did you changed in ldap config?
Is openldap running?

thanks for the info.

I am going back to pristine install and play with how you setup ldap before I configure other apps that I want to include.

BTW, while egroupware is working fine at health site, I have walked away from using it. The egroupware development team is talking about forking, so I am evaluating some other solutions. Just thought you might be wondering why I am installing these other apps.

thanks

Okay, I did new install of sms. I downloaded develpkgs and installed. Downloaded kernel-2.6.24.

Rebooted sms. Everything appears to be working. Started ldap (/etc/rc.d/rc.openldap start). But I can not log into PHPldapAdmin.

login:
cn=Manager,dc=sms,dc=org

passwd: toor

says bad user or password.

Waiting in anticipation of your thoughts Smile

What's the output of
ps aux | grep slapd
You must see a /usr/libexec/slapd

Try to change the password in slapd.conf
make password with 'slappasswd'
rootpw 'output of slappasswd'

root@sms:~# ps aux | grep slapd
root 20745 0.0 0.0 2000 632 pts/0 R+ 06:51 0:00 grep slapd

no /usr/libexec/slapd.

so I tried creating new password but it did not work. As you can see this is a default sms server without any changes, other than installing develpkgs.

I decided to boot livecd and see if I could login to phpLdapadmin and I could! It works.

So, what happens when installed to hd? Is it the sources I downloaded? Anyway, I will keep investigating until you suggest some course of action.

excellent! I am in middle of new install but will try that. Makes sense.

thanks

finished new install. Removing slapd.pid worked! Now I can log into phpLdapadmin.

Now on to other discoveries which will drive you insane Wink

thanks for the help - another reason I LOVE sms.
