idle_timelimit in ldap.conf not working

ALInux · 05-09-2012, 03:05 AM

Hi

I did set idle_timelimit 60 in my /etc/ldap.conf client file but connections stay running and do not time out. Is there any setting I need to add on the server side ?

My Full Ldap file at /etc/ldap.conf

bind_policy soft
URI ldap://xx.xx.xx.xx
BASE dc=xxxxxxx,dc=local
TLS_CACERTDIR /etc/openldap/cacerts
pam_password clear
pam_lookup_policy yes

idle_timelimit 60

this is the limit for idle ldapuser connection not for the client. what exactly are you checking, any output?

Hi
Did not see any output, what I want to achieve is for sessions to timeout and re-entering of credentials after a certain time frame.
