i have created an ldif file to create an ou
when i run ldapadd i get the following error:

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: internal (implementation specific) error (80)
additional info: sasl(-13): user not found: no secret in database

i have tried creating a passwd with slappasswd -s and replacing secret with that in my slapd.conf, same error

i have tried creating a slapd.conf file for my sasl installation and told it to use shadow, same error

i am at a loss.

i need to know how to set and use the rootpw command in my slapd.conf

Hello,

maybe there are problems with the sasl-configuration.

Try ldapadd with the -x parameter (Simple authentication)

i reconfigured without sasl support
don't need it, works great now, thank you for responding.

Can you explain exactly what you did to fix this please?
-Thanx

run ./configure --help
this will show you the options, then use the right option to not install the sasl support.

Sorry i can't tell you the exact ./configure line, forgot.

The OpenLDAP RPM for Fedora Core 6 has SASL enabled. I don't want it. I've tried to figure out how to disable the functionality with ldap.conf:

SASL_SECPROPS none maxssf=0

no luck.

How do you disable it... or do I need to rebuild the RPM myself.


Thanks.

I would either find an RPM with it disabled already, or download the source and compile it with it disabled then build an RPM

Coming from a FreeBSD world, I've not yet learned how to build the RPM. But can't you rip out the *.spec file and recompile ... or use rpmrebuild or something like that.

can u tell me how u solved the problem
