que?

 

[funkymatt]

try posting in the network forum with exactly what you're trying to accomplish

 

[Nitemare]

Having problems authenticating or what?

 

[Darkstar757]

Forcing SSL

 

[Platypus]

What's the problem and what OS/LDAP ?

Forcing SSL for what? Binding, password changing... etc?

 

[SagaLore]

If this is how you post in IRC, I can understand why.

Good God! I am so dyslexic today. I thought the OP was complaining about the L A P D.

 

[Evadman]

There is a reason that LDAP professionals are in high demand, we don't share anything. ever.

 

[Nitemare]

why have you only got one eye?

I thought it was about the LAPD also. I was expecting some rant (possibly involving bodily harm) and then for some thread ownage.

Semi-disappointed.

The problem is fixed now. Gosh I had to dig a old article about LDAP implementation. However now that I have it running via SSL I need to understand how to perform a ldapsearch using a user in the ldapdirectory other than the root user.

 

[ultimatebob]

Man... you are totally in the wrong forum! Most ATOT'ers probably think that LDAP is a cool new Firefox plugin or something

 

[ViviTheMage]

ldap is crappy as imap

 

[Superwormy]

You shouldn't be using LDAP over SSL, it's been deprecated since 2003 / LDAPv3 came out.

You should be using LDAP with TLS security.

 

[Darkstar757]

Im not doing it over ssl I am implementing in the slapd.conf

 

[Mr Pickles]

There's your problem right there: change your black guy avatar.

I've done a lot with LDAP and haven't had too many issues. Getting the certificate stuff striaght is one issue. The other huge roadblock is just understanding your directory structure and knowing what object classes and attributes you have to work with.

If you authenticate as a different user, cn=joeuser,o=company you can do a search for (objectclass=*) inside ou=users,o=company

Softerra has a good LDAP Browser (v 2.6) that you can download and install to test your environment. There's a better one for SSL support if from the university of chicago...but you'd have to search from it. Make sure you have the latest version of Sun Java installed.
