ldap configuration

okay... i'm trying to get ldap to work with slapd. does anyone have a basic ldap.conf and slapd.conf configuration file they could post to help get me going? any help would be appreciated. thanks!

these will obviously vary per system but here's mine which works.

slapd.conf:

Code:

	include		/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
	include		/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema
	include		/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
	include		/etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema
	pidfile		/var/ldap/run/slapd.pid
	argsfile		/var/ldap/run/slapd.args
	database		bdb
	suffix		"dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME"
	directory		/var/ldap/openldap-data
	rootdn		"cn=admin,dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME"
	rootpw		ROOT_PASSWORD

probably not the most secure given the password, but i believe that doesn't need to be the system root, just the ldap root. anyway, on to ldap.conf:

Code:

	host			127.0.0.1
	base			dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME
	pam_filter		objectclass=posixAccount
	pam_login_attribute	uid
	nss_base_passwd		ou=users,dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME?one
	nss_base_shadow		ou=users,dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME?one
	nss_base_group	ou=groups,dc=YOUR_HOSTNAME?one
	sslno
