Bind9 with OpenLDAP on Debian etch

slp1992 · 10-20-2008, 10:21 PM

Hello everyone! I've been trying to configure my Bind9 server to work with OpenLDAP. I know that I need the "LDAP sdb back-end for BIND 9", that is located in bind9-ldap.bayour.com. But this site is not working! So please, if you can, help me with this. Thanks in advance

Since the other site is down, you can get the needed software from here

You haven't asked a question, and you've directed us to a website that doesn't work.

What specifically isn't working? Is BIND functional? IS LDAP functional? How about something useful, like, "when I try to X, Y happens" If Y is an error message, I suggest plugging that error into google.

Peace,
JimBass

Thank you for the answer, but this is the site I went from to the site that isn't working. The point is that there is a phrase

Turbo Fredriksson has kindly accepted to take over as maintainer of the back-end. For the latest releases and information, please see http://bind9-ldap.bayour.com/. Below is the old information from when I maintained it.

But the link is not working. So, I thought that one of the forum members may have a link to download the latest releases.

Doing a little googling it seems that version 1.0 is the latest stable and you can d/l it from the old site.
You can also use the bundled ldap-sdb that comes with bind (bind 9.5.0.P2 includes ldap-sdb version 1.0-beta). It's under contrib/sdb/ldap in bind sources.

Thank you very much, bathory, for your answers. I tried it and it worked. But now I am using the ldap2dns tools - a tool that reads LDAP directory and creates a zone file
