I have seen those messages, they are gone after applying LDAP patch, did you apply OS and LDAP patches? The starting point to configure Solaris8 or Solaris9 Native LDAP Clients, against any type of LDAP Servers, be it FDS, OpenLDAP or SUN ONE, is the SAME: "To apply latest OS kernel patch and LDAP patch" For Solaris9: LDAP Patch 112960-30 or later is recommended (at this moment) For Solaris8: LDAP Patch 108993-48 or later is recommended (at this moment) It is quite tough for Solaris8 as before you could apply 108993-48, you got to apply so many patches to up the OS kernel patch level and apply those patches that 108893-48 is depending on, very time consuming, these patches (see the Requires line below), essentially make Solaris8 LDAP libraries the same VERSION 2 as Solaris9's. # showrev -p | grep "^Patch: 108993-48" Patch: 108993-48 Obsoletes: 108827-40, 108991-18, 109322-09, 109461-03, 111641-01, 109680-01, 110589-02, 111217-02, 111177-06, 111921-02, 112022-02, 110194-01, 110390-02, 111090-03, 111431-01, 110700-01, 111081-01, 111464-01, 111780-01, 111085-02, 111299-04, 111393-02, 111659-07, 112218-01, 112605-04, 108997-03, 109005-05, 110511-05 Requires: 108528-24, 108989-01, 110386-01, 111023-03, 111317-05, 113648-03, 115827-01, 116602-01, , Incompatibles: 109079-01 Packages: SUNWcsu, SUNWcsl, SUNWcsr, SUNWcslx, SUNWcarx, SUNWatfsr, SUNWatfsu, SUNWcsxu, SUNWnisr, SUNWnisu, SUNWapppr, SUNWapppu, SUNWarc, SUNWarcx, SUNWcstl, SUNWdpl, SUNWdplx, SUNWlldap, SUNWmdbx, SUNWmdb, SUNWhea, SUNWcstlx, SUNWpppd, SUNWpppdr, SUNWpppdu, SUNWpppdx For Solaris9, less # of patches are required. There are some related info I posted at SUN forums, they are for SUN ONE DS5.2, but I think relevant in the case of FDS, pls help yourself to them.

Subject: getting solaris 8 to talk to FDS Hi, all. I've been battling this for days now, with no luck. I've got fds up & running and linux clients authenticating w/o problems. Solaris has so far been a royal pain. This is what I've done so far: - imported the 2 schemas that a kind soul sent me (dua & nis) - added the nisDomain object - added a few users to test - copied the ldap_file & ldap_cred files from Gary Tay's site - added a default simple profile - ran ldap-genprofile to get the NS1 password, put it in the cred file. - added ldap to the nsswitch.conf Yet the solaris box doesn't see the ldap server. In the dmesg, I see this: Aug 24 09:16:34 unknown getent[1506]: [ID 293258 user.error] libsldap: Status: 7 Mesg: Session error no available conn. Aug 24 09:18:07 unknown nscd[1498]: [ID 293258 user.error] libsldap: Status: 7 Mesg: Session error no available conn. Aug 24 09:18:07 unknown nscd[1498]: [ID 293258 user.error] libsldap: Status: 7 Mesg: Session error no available conn. Can anybody point me in the right direction? I'm about to start kicking the solaris server... ____________________________________________________ Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page http://www.yahoo.com/r/hs -- Fedora-directory-users mailing list Fedora-directory-users at redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users
