OpenLDAP RHEL 6
- by AndyM
Hi all
I've been configuring OpenLDAP on RHEL 6 and its seems you have run the following to rebuild the config dirs. I'm ok with that , but my issues is , say I want to change the server passwd , do I have to go through the whole process every time I change the config ? Is there a way of changing the slapd config after its been built using the RHEL6 method ?
below is the advice I've found on the net from http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/rhel6/rhel_6_migration_guide/rhel_6_migration_ch07s03.html
This example assumes that the file to
convert from the old slapd
configuration is located at
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf and the new
directory for OpenLDAP configuration
is located at /etc/openldap/slapd.d/.
Remove the contents of the new
/etc/openldap/slapd.d/ directory:
rm -rf /etc/openldap/slapd.d/*
Run slaptest to check the validity of
the configuration file and specify the
new configuration directory: slaptest
-f /etc/openldap/slapd.conf -F /etc/openldap/slapd.d
Configure permissions on the new
directory: chown -R ldap:ldap
/etc/openldap/slapd.d
chmod -R 000 /etc/openldap/slapd.d
chmod -R u+rwX /etc/openldap/slapd.d
