Re: Database recreation, automount and performance

The IETF LDAP community has decided to deprecated them in favor of the new netgroups stuff.


I thought automount, automountInformation, etc. were the most current way to store automount mappings in a directory. They still appear in the RFC2307bis draft:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-howard-rfc2307bis-01.txt

However, it does make sense that they might not be included with FDS since RFC2307bis is still a work in progress.

What is the "new netgroups stuff"?

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm extremely glad FDS is now freely available and almost open-source. I have run into some issues when I started playing with it.

1. I've tried to port my OpenLDAP database to it and found that that there is no automount objectclass specified by default. The automount and automountInformation classes are defined in Fedora schema extensions
that come with the openldap RPM, so not having them in FDS is a little
weird. I had to define them myself.

2. After a failed import I deleted the database and tried to recreate it. I went first to Configuration/Data/New Root Suffix and specified the base DN and the database name. Then I went to Data/<Server name:389>/ New Root Object and tried to create the root entry, but got this error:

"Only the Directory Manager has the right to create the Root Entry. Log in as Directory Manager to be able to perform this operation. "

I've checked that the manager DN is specified correctly in Configuration/Manager.


We don't yet have a way to set an ACI to allow users other than the Directory Manager (i.e. cn=Directory Manager, not the admin console user) to create the entry for a root suffix. In the console, you can Log In As New User, and specify cn=directory manager (or whatever you used for your directory manager user when you performed the initial installation).


I tried restarting the directory server, but that did not help. How do I reinitalize it?

3) Finally, the Java administration console is extremely slow. I'm running over an SSH connection, but my server is a 2.8 Ghz machine with 512 Mb of RAM. I wonder what console performance other people experience.


It's not great.  It is a huge Java/Swing application.


Thanks - I'm looking forward to deploying FDS with Windows sync!
Simon
