Directory Server Resource Kit + Solaris 10

Our Sun server is being moved to Solaris 10. We need some very urgent help from you on the following...
Is "Directory Server Resource Kit" v5.2 compatible with Sun 10 OS?
If it is not, what is the latest version of this utility which is compatible to Sun 10 OS?
If yes, would you please provide the installation instructions / guide for the same to us?
Please let us know if you have any queries / suggestions.

Doe Sun intend on supporting RH servers? or only the older RH distributions?

Directory Server Resource Kit 5.2

Hi,
I am using the sample phonebook application (lookmeup) in the Directory Server Resource Kit 5.2. I would like to modify that application so that it displays the jpegphoto attribute for a directory entry.
When I query from the jsp, using the LDAP Tag Library, the value I receive back is NULL. Here is how I am querying within the jsp:
<ldap:attr default="�" entry="$entry" name="jpegphoto"/>�
Can the LDAP Tag library included with the Directory Server Resource Kit allow retrieval of binary attributes? Does someone have a code snippit that demonstrates that? The documentation is not very detailed about it. Thanks so much for the help!

Directory Server Resource Kit - ldapsubtdel

Hi
I'm trying to locate the ldapsubtdel command which I understand come's with the Directory Server Resource Kit. I have downloaded version 5.2 but ldapsubtdel is not included. Is there a latter version that I should be using?
DJC

The program is part of the DSRK in 6.x. I too don't have it with my 5.2 DSRK. In 6.x, it is available as <serverroot>/dsrk6/bin/ldapsubtdel

How to install directory server/client on Solaris 9 for dummys

Hi,
after reading hunderts of pages, after asking questions in forums without getting the right answers, i was able to install the directory server in our company.
Here is the summary i made for myself. Perhaps it helps others to avoid the same problems.
Set up a Directory Server (sun one ds 5.1)
Present situation:
-Nisplus is installed
-Solaris OS 9 sparc 64bit is installed
-DS5 Software is normally already installed in Solaris 9. Check off with 'pkginfo | grep IPLT*'
-Otherwise install from Solaris OS 9 Disc1 with 'pkgadd -d IPLTxxxx .'
-Software setup with '/usr/sbin/directoryserver setup'
     Install admin- and directory server.
     For Directory Server use port 389 (necessary for later use of SSL)
     For Admin Server use any empty port > 1024
     Run directoryserver as root (necessary for using port 389 and for -starting servers from console)
     Use default Directory Manager DN cn=Directory manager
     Use your domain as DIT (default information tree) example: dc=example, dc=com
     As second DIT, setup installs o=NetscapeRoot. Don't change this DIT at all!!!!!
The server stores all the default schemas there which are absolutely important for the directoy
server. Don't change anything there !
-Configure software with 'idsconfig'
     Preferred - and default server xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (ip_adds of your directory server)
     Use default search scope one
     Use credential's Proxy
     Use authentication Simple (you may change this later if needed)
     All the rest should remain on default settings
     You will be asked for a proxy passwort
-Start the directoryserver console with '/usr/sbin/directoryserver startconsole'
-If it's not yet running, start the directory server from console or with command 'directoryserver -s instance_name start'
-If it's not yet running, start the admin server from console or with command 'directoyserver start-admin'
-On directoryserver's gui at configuraton/password set password encryption to 'unix crypt algorithm (CRYPT)'
Import Data
-Get Data from Nisplus with
     'niscat passwd.org_dir passwd.ldap'
     'niscat hosts.org_dir hosts.ldap'
     'niscat groups.org_dir groups.ldap'
     etc
-adjust the files. (try it out with one entry of a file only. You may delete this entry with the gui very easy if it's not successfull.
-hosts.ldap must look like
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx machine1
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx machine2
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx machine3
     First value is the ip-address, second one is the hostname.
     If you have more than one hostname per machine, use a second line (don't write 2 names behind the ip-address like you did in nisplus!!!)
Change content of files into ldif format
-perl migrate_hosts.pl hosts.ldap hosts.ldif
-perl migrate passwd.pl passwd.ldap passwd.ldif
-You may download the above perl-Files from http://www.padl.com
Change the converted passwd.ldif File as follows:
-before change:
dn: uid=mario,ou=People,dc=krinfo,dc=ch
uid: mario
cn: mario
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
userPassword: {crypt}6O9m3uK./T/rM
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 1020
gidNumber: 14
homeDirectory: /home/mario
-after change:
dn: uid=mario,ou=People,dc=krinfo,dc=ch
uid: mario
cn: mario
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: shadowAccount <--- this line must be inserted
objectClass: top
userPassword: {crypt}6O9m3uK./T/rM
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 1020
gidNumber: 14
homeDirectory: /home/mario
Insert the line for every entry in the passwd.ldif file
You may now import all these xxxx.ldif files into the directory server with
-ldapadd -h name_of_directoryserver -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w password -f XXXXX.ldif
You may use this commands later to import further data.
-Initialise a client
'ldapclient -a proxyDN=cn=proxyagent,ou=profile,dc=example,dc=com init xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'
The xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at the end is the ip address of the directory server
-This will make a client with data taken from the default profile from the directory server. This profile has been produced with the earlier command idsconfig and can be changed if needed.
-The System will ask you for the proxy password (given the first time in idsconfig dialog)
-You may now look at the produces files
in '/var/ldap/ldap_client_file' for the client settings
in '/var/ldap/ldap_client_cred' for the proxy settings
'ldapclient list' shows the settings of the client
With 'ldaplist -h' you may see all the existing entries with their objects.
Activate the client
-If it's not yet running, start '/usr/lib/ldap/ldap_cachemgr'
-All nisplus daemons/programs have been stopped by ldapclient command. If not, stop them manually.
-/etc/nsswitch.conf should have been copied from /etc/nsswitch.ldap from ldapclient too.
-If not, do it manually.
example
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap
hosts ldap dns files
etc
I recommend to change the file '/etc/nsswitch.ldap' because the system oftens copies nsswitch.ldap to nsswitch.conf and if nsswitch.ldap is adapted, you must now change it again and again.
you may now check whether ldap is working fine with the following requests:
getent passwd username
getent hosts hostname
getent groups
getent network
These commands should give you the requested answer.
Be sure to clean:
/etc/hosts      inside is only your workstation and the directory server
/etc/passwd     only default and local entries
/etc/groups only default and local entries
etc
try a telnet to your own machine to check, whether password and automount of your home_dirctory works fine.
I failed here. All was working fine, but the password exchange did not because of credential/authentication problems.
Best regards and good luck
Mario

Directory Server 5.1 does not support Kerberos authentication.
Beside this there are some extensions in MS kerberos authentication that makes it almost impossible to have a MS client authenticate with something else than AD.

Installation of Directory Service Resource Kit 5.2.1 without text bundle?

I'd currently gotten a copy of DSRK (dsrk52-WINNT4.0_OPT.zip) from SUN's download website. While launching 'java DSRK' from a command line window, I found the installation process couldn't get neccessary text bundles. For example, the title was displayed as 'S1DSRKUninstall-Frame-Title-Text', buttons were labelled as 'S1DSRKResources:Close-Button--...' or something alike. I wondered what factors caused this situation, system variables for java or os configuration?
Platform: Win2000 SP4/J2SDK 1.4.2_05
p.s.: error info.

Solaris 8 and iPlanet Directory Server 5.1: Help

Could anyone help with advice or where to find documentation of how to setup a Solaris 8 client machine to authenticate against iPlanet Directory Server 5.1? The only documentation (eg books, BluePrint articles) I can find cover iPlanet Directory 4.11 or 4.12 and a Solaris 8 client. Even the tools from the BluePrint Tools area at Sun only talk about using iPlanet Directory Server 4.11/12. Quite a lot seems to have change from iDS 4.12 to iDS5.1.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Stewart

Hi Steven, I suppose that this question is identical to your other question: " Topic: solaris 8 client setup with solaris 9 ldap".
So the answer will be the same.
You may find what you are looking for in the following technical note: http://knowledgebase.iplanet.com/ikb/kb/articles/7966.html
It is called: "Cookbook for Solaris 8 client with Directory Server 5.1/Solaris 9"

Flash or imaging solaris with directory server

Hi,
I don;t know weather it is "doable" or not and im not sure weather this question belong to directory server or solaris OS question.
This is about OS imaging, but with directory server. Reason, i have to build 10 servers with directory server in it.
Did anybody install directory server on a solaris machine and image that server?
can i use the same image to create rest of the servers?
Appriciate any thoughts / suggestions
-S-

Don't ask me exactly how but flash/flar/imaging is exactly that a complete system image. So you could do this but you will end up with 10 identical - i.e. hostname, IP , nodename - servers.
If it's worth the effort I'd suggest putting the JES components that you need, with SILENT install templates etc, into a jumpstart configuration. Then jumpstart/install each server and run the silent installs with appropriate hostname configurations, I've seen this entirely automated but it takes some work
If this is the only time you're EVER going to do this I'd say you're on the verge of the time worth it versus not stage, if you see the need to do this again in future I'd say it is worth the time investment.
You may consider just using jumpstart with appropriate installation bits to get each server OS going and manually install the Directory.

Last Logon Time in Iplanet Directory Server 4.1

Hi,
It would be great help if any one of you could let me know the attribute in Iplanet Directory Server 4.1 to get the Last Logon Time of a particular account.
The Directory Server is on solaris.
Thanks

Hari,
You can try to find it from the logfiles.
I actually designed a plugin for this type of thing, but it's not yet implemented. It would simply write a timestamp to a user's entry after every successful bind, among other things which I won't go into detail about now...
