APPENDIX C LDAP SERVER CUSTOMIZATIONS

APPENDIX C

LDAP Server Customizations

The R3000 has been tested on common types of standard LDAP servers with default settings. However, due to the number of LDAP servers available, and the limitless ways in which any type of LDAP server can be configured, customi- zations may need to be made on such an LDAP server that fits either description.

NOTE: Please contact technical support for assistance in imple- menting any of the changes described in this appendix.

OpenLDAP Server Scenario

Not all users returned in User/Group Browser

In this scenario, a query is performed in the LDAP User/ Group Browser window on an OpenLDAP server, and not all users are returned.

To resolve this problem, do the following:

1.Change the current directory to /usr/local/shadow/etc/ ldapgroup

2.Find the subdirectory bearing the name of the LDAP domain, and change the current directory to that subdi- rectory.

3.Open the file ”ldapobjectdef.conf” for editing.

4.Search for the line “LDC_LDAP_query_name_prefix CN=”

5.Replace “CN=” with “uid=” and save these changes.

6.Restart the R3000.
