@Rajesh Rajasekharan, Please accept my Gratitute for you to have spent time, money and effort to freely share the experience you have gained over the years.
Rajesh, Thanks for the very helpful video series. One question - Since "cn=Manager,dc=fedji,dc=com" is used to create the first entry in the database, does it mean "cn=Manager,dc=fedji,dc=com" itself doesnt exist in the database and is created in the config file just for administration purposes
You made me understand the lessons clearly. Although, i have few questions and would be great if you help me out. 1. Can we create a DN without any data in it. I want to use the DN just as a tree path. The data would be in following DN's. 2. Can we know who is authorized to ldapsearch a perticular DN (or a subtree).
When I start the OpenLDAP in this lesson, it's just an instance without any data in it. When I run the 'ldapadd' command , I'm creating a suffix (root of the Directory Information Tree) with the name 'dc=example,dc=com'. Underneath that suffix, there is no data yet. You should be able to identify who has got access to what in a Directory Information Tree by reviewing the Access Control List defined in the OpenLDAP configuration. See if the videos around OpenLDAP Access Control list helps: 1. ua-cam.com/video/MhI9_jJS-w4/v-deo.html 2. ua-cam.com/video/JnVVZM5jf40/v-deo.html 3. ua-cam.com/video/yPx9MLBhU2Y/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!
Rajesh Rajasekharan In my organization, i am not authorized to look into the config files. So when i search with a user name in bindDN(-u "abcdef") it returns me with no results with error code :10

@@RajeshRajasekharan Hi Rajesh, I am working with configuring ldap proxy for 2 ldap servers . I am able to configure ldap proxy and it is working fine s well but my problem is I can see users from both ldaps in separate OUs and not as single OU. I want to see users from both OUs in single OU. How I can achieve this? Can you please help? More details are on this link stackoverflow.com/questions/58432331/configuring-ldap-proxy-server-with-multiple-ad-ldap-servers
Mike Jin i am assuming you are referring to rootdn.. It cannot be dc.. Rootdn is the admin account for ldap server.. It has to be a common name(cn)... Which is like user name..and dc is organization.. In this case fedji.com
Hello Abdul - wish I could do, but in the middle of many pressing commitments. I'm sure there are readily available documentation that details the installation/configuration of OpenLDAP on CentOS. Once installed and configured, the administration & maintenance of OpenLDAP is similar, regardless of the OS.
Thank yoy for this video. I have installed OpenLdap in Ubuntu. and while installation it asked for admin password. However I am not able to to slapadd with this admin. how to overcome this problem.
Hello Vivek, There are multiple backend databases that are supported by OpenLDAP: www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/backends.html It's likely that the installation of OpenLDAP on Ubuntu defaults to mdb (or you accidentally configured mdb, if it prompted). I guess you can reconfigure your OpenLDAP to use a different database by running the following command: $ sudo dpkg-reconfigure slapd Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

Hi,
In cn=manager,dc=fedji,dc=com, why manager has to be a "cn"? can I have it as dc=manager,dc=fedji,dc=com, or cn=manager,cn=fedji,cn=com?

What's the error you are getting ?
I installed it in ubuntu , database in slapd.conf file is showing mdb not bdb ..why?

Hi Rajesh how are you. ..Divakar from ibm
Could not the permission of the machine, it was empty (ls -l /var/openldap.openldap-data) nothing was in the file
Without the right permission, the OpenLDAP won't start. You have to change the permission of the OpenLDAP Data Directory to that of the OpenLDAP user.
@@RajeshRajasekharan how do you do this
