[squid-users] Odd bug with the ldap helpers

[Martin Richard <martin.richard@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

  I'm trying to setup squid to auth against a NDS8 (NW5) and while
trying to test squid_ldap_auth I've discovered it doesn't even
initiate network connections!?

  I'm using squid-2.5.STABLE9 on a FC2 box, with the helpers that came
with the squid package..

  If I start a tcpdump on the ldap server ip and use "ldapsearch" I
see traffic.. if I use squid_ldap_auth, there's simply no traffic to
be seen. I quite frankly don't get it ;-) Where should I look for
further debugging ?

  This is the command I used:

./squid_ldap_auth \
  -b "O=LABNW5-01" \
  -u cn \
  -s sub \
  -D "cn=admin,O=LABNW5-01" \
  -w "removed" \
  -f "(&(&(objectClass=person)(cn=%s))
(groupMembership=cn=SquidUsers,o=LABNW5-01))" \
  -h otkldap

"otkldap" resolves to the correct IP via /etc/hosts.

  Any suggestions welcome !
