[Fedora-directory-users] getting solaris 8 to talk to FDS

[Tay, Gary]

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"

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: [Fedora-directory-users] 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...
