Hi,

The OpenLdap 2.4.46 provided on this site is compiled with bdb backend (berkley database) support or not ?

By default, I think only mdb is supported.

Please advice me,

Till version 2.4.46-1, it was compiled with Berkeley db support. 2.4.46-2 version is compiled with mdb. 

The reason for this switch is because openldap don't support Berkeley db version 6 and we don't want to use bdb 4 version for future builds.

" /opt/freeware/sbin/slapd -VVV " shows the supported database.

Thanks for answer.

1) The bdb and mdb are compatibles ? We can use mdb in place of bdb?

2) The version OpenLdap 2.4.46-2 provided on this site, has the syncprov module inside ( used for replication between 2 ldaps servers ) ?

Please advice me,

mdb is the way going forward according to openldap community. Both hdb & bdb is deprecated. 

As mentioned earlier in the thread, you can use " /opt/freeware/sbin/slapd -VVV " to see the supported modules which says syncprov module presence.

Hi,

The Openldap version proposed on your site doesn't contain the start/stop scripts of slapd ( in the form of redhat: service slapd start/stop).

It is normal this ?

Please advice me,

Thanks a lot,

Hi,

1) Please tell me why rpm Openldap doesn't create a ldap user ? it creates only ldap group.....I think we need of a ldap user also.

2) Which rpm are more stables: these from this site or those from bullfreeware.com ? Could I mix the rpm from both 2 sites ?

Please advice me,

Thanks

1) What's the issue you faced when tried to create a ldap user ?

2) Both are stable. It is generally recommended not to mix packages from both the sites. You can do that if you know how to resolve the library issues if something pops up.

Hi,

I want to confirm me that the Openldap rpm creates only a ldap group, not a ldap user.

The ldap user must be created manually by me.

Please confirm me,

Thanks a lot,

Yes, it creates only the group. One has to manually create a ldap user. 

" rpm -q --scripts openldap " this shows what the install scripts does. 

The logic here is,  group is a general thing but not users.

Hi,

I need please your advice:

When I tried to install the package nss package, I did:

dc2ts702i<root>(/var/tmp/OPENLDAP)# rpm -e sqlite-3.23.0-1.ppc
error: Failed to initialize NSS library
rpm_share: 0645-007 ATTENTION: get_rpm_inst_root_list() returned an unexpected result.
rpm_share: 0645-007 ATTENTION: update_inst_root() returned an unexpected result.
dc2ts702i<root>(/var/tmp/OPENLDAP)#

Right now, all the rpm s commands dont work.

Please advice me,

sqlite library is needed by rpm. By removing it, rpm got disturbed. 

I think you need to move to new rpm.rte fileset. 4.13.0.10

http://public.dhe.ibm.com/aix/freeSoftware/aixtoolbox/INSTALLP/ppc/ 

This will prevent these kind of issues as rpm.rte files itself will go into a separate directory.

Assumptions should be avoided. 

Generally, config files are optional in packaging. Some distributions ship config files as "XX.example"

You can always get a template config file from the community.
