Halloo!
I am attempting to migrate an existing OpenLDAP directory to FDS 1.01.
I had extended the OL setup with samba.schema and had imported a bunch
of existing Samba data with scripts. This is all on Fedora Core 3. I
was motivated to migrate by 1) the console apps and 2) better ACI mgmt;
I figured both of these might better support a better self-service
directory model where people can edit some of their own details.
I have FDS running and just got console running. I found the script to
convert samba.schema to FDS LDIF format and that seemed to work a
treat. However, on startup, FDS seems to completely ignore my
"61samba.ldif". Worse, it seems not to notice any errors. What this
measn is that I am not able to import any users (and other elements)
from my OL directory as they have various samba* attributes.
The rest of the XXname.ldif schema files seem to be processing just
fine. I have audited some of the last to load 50ns-web, 50ns-calendar
and 60pam-plugin, and all of their attributes appear in the listing I
can find via the console (or phpLDAPadmin).
I saw nothing in the slapd-servername/logs/* so I increased error
loglevel to 192 and then to some ridiculous combined value from the
debug table in the FAQ. I never see any reference to problems
processing "61samba" -- the only errors I can generate with "samba" in
them are when I attempt to add users "has unknown object class
'sambaSamAccount'", for example. I changed 61samba.ldif to
21samba.ldif to see if this problem was order-dependent. No change.
For grins, I added a junk ldif called 59nonsense.ldif and I couldn't get
*that* to generate any lines in the "errors" log file or anywhere that I
can tell. "service ldap restart" just seems to go on its merry way. It
is like the ancillary LDIF list doesn't exist or something.
So, for fun I *copied* one of the LDIF schema files to "59nonsense.ldif"
and figured I would see log complaints about duplicate attributes, but
*nothing*. and nothing in debug log. slapd restarts without a hitch.
Anyhow, FDS looks great and I am sure it will be a lot of fun, but at
the moment, I think I am missing some *big*, dope-slap-worthy item --
some big, red switch that says "COMMIT" that I need to flip!
Thoughts? Thanks.
Jim
