Testing openLDAP before production

deibertine · 10-29-2009, 02:55 PM

I was wondering if anyone here has an idea on how to fully test openLDAP? I'd like to test some of our production resources (WebSVN, Bugzilla, Sharepoint portal, etc) to ensure that authentication works but im afraid to take them down and create issues if I do integrate them.
Does anyone have any advise that I could fully test openLDAP?
Cheers!

well in terms of user authentication and the likes, basic ldapsearch queries can test most things that you're likely to use it for. Similarily, ldapmodify for changing / adding data.

As you're not sure whether it would affect your productive services, the work can be done in off-working hours, for example, during lunch time...

Thanks guys!
I'm actually in the process of setting up Bugzilla to authenticate against ldap.
Anyone experienced setting up this type of authentication?
Cheers!
