Hello list
 
I am trying to set up LDAP module for system authentication.
I am running a Tru64 UNIX V5.1A with C2 enabled ( shadow passwords only ) ,
 and Internet Express v5.6 installed ( with openldap 2.0.7 )
Following the guide provided in Internet Express Documentation , i have
enabled
ldap module for sys authentication .
Then checked the configuration in /etc/ldapcd.conf by running ldap_check.
 
----------------
 
# /usrsr/internet/ldap_tools/ldap_check
       
Loaded Configuration file /etc/ldapcd.conf
Connected to LDAP server localhost
  Search base "o=ALBTELKO" confirmed
  Retrieved Object class information
  Password object class attributes verified
  Group object class attributes verified
Directory configuration verified
#_
-----------------
 
But , when trying to add a local user ( stored in ldap ) , with
UserManagment Utility of Internet Expres , the script
fails with :
------------------
Failed to parse input entry beginning with "<username>:u_name=<username>"
----------------
This is because , as the guide states , adding a ldap user with C2 enabled
requires the extrastep as follows
 
echo "<username>:u_name=<username>:u_id#<uid>:u_oldcrypt#3:u_lock_at_:chkent:" |
/usr/tcb/bin/eduath -s

But this fails because not such entry is found in /etc/passwd .
 
So is it possible to have ldap authentication with C2 enabled or i am
missing something in all this ???
 
Thanks all
