Hi Folks I have 389 installed on F19 on a server with the hostname ldap-srv but I am unable to successfully query it using ldapsearch from another F19 server with the hostname ldap-client. I am an LDAP noob so its possible that this scenario isn't even meant to work. Essentially, I've set up a 389 server and I'm trying to use ldapsearch as a quick sniff test to make sure its working properly before I embark on figuring out how to configure some other F19 servers to use the 389 LDAP service for Authentication. I think ldap-srv is running correctly using the default configuration as I'm able to bring up the 389-console and create a few users and groups. I am also able to successfully run the following local ldapsearch query on ldap-srv: ldapsearch -x -s base -b "" "objectclass=*" which prints out a long list of results but ends in: vendorName: 389 Project vendorVersion: 389-Directory/1.3.1.7 B2013.240.2228 dataversion: 020130920220244 netscapemdsuffix: cn=ldap://dc=localhost,dc=localdomain:389 # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success # numResponses: 2 # numEntries: 1 However, when I try and run a similar query from my ldap-client server, I get the following: [root@ldap-client ~]# ldapsearch -x -h ldap-srv -s base -b "" "objectclass=*" ldap_sasl_bind(SIMPLE): Can't contact LDAP server (-1) iptables are off on both machines.
