Configuring ldap-ux

Hi All,

I am configuring ldapux B.04.00.03 in a Itanium v11.23 an I have configured Active directory in a w2003 with a proxy user.

I have put the etc/krb5.keytab and configured the pam.conf and /etc/krb5.conf as it is required in the "LDAP-UX Client Services B.04.00 Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory Administrator’s Guide"

In the syslog I find this error when trying to login as a user created in the Active Directory:
Feb 28 14:33:35 itanium login: [Cannot resolve network address for KDC in requested realm] while getting initial credentials
Feb 28 14:33:35 itanium login: [Authentication failed] Password not valid


more information:
itanium::/opt/ldapux/config>./get_profile_entry -s nss -D "CN=proxyuser,CN=Users,DC=trescasas,DC=com" -w nueva123

itanium::/opt/ldapux/config>./ldap_proxy_config -v
File Credentials verified - valid
itanium::/opt/ldapux/config>./ldap_proxy_config -p
PROXY DN: CN=proxyuser,CN=Users,DC=trescasas,DC=com


Thank you very much in advance

Re: Configuring ldap-ux

Check that you can resolve the addresses
for all the servers listed in the /etc/*.conf
files. Use nslookup to verifiy lookups.
It looks like one of the servers is in
neither /etc/hosts, nor the DNS nameservers
listed in /etc/resolv.conf.

You may want to try reverse lookups. For
ip 10.20.30.40 try

nslookup 40.30.20.10.in-addr.arpa.

Note the trailing period after arpa.

Re: Configuring ldap-ux

Hi,

I looks like that the Windows KDC mentioned in the "[realms]" section of /etc/krb5.conf
doesn't get resolved from LDAP-UX client.
This is probably due to different domains for KDC and LDAP client.
In this case, you need to manually map the LDAP-UX client domain name with Windows KDS domain under "[domain_realm]" section in /etc/krb5.conf.
e.g.
if your FQDN of LDAP-UX client is host.xyz.com and KDS domain (realm) is abc.com then you need to have
[domain_realm]
.xyz.com=abc.com
