[opensuse-autoinstall] ldap problems
Hi All, I've managed to use the ldap client (<ldap>) and server (<ldap-server>) sections of my autoinst.xml to setup the server with both as ldap server and ldap client. I would assume that the ldap client stuff will work eventually, but there's a problem with the server part: the ldap database does not get initialized, I still have to go in and do that step manually. Does anyone know how to automate this step? Any thoughts appreciated /Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

what do you mean by "inititalized"? The creation of the initial entries? That's not configureable - not even with YaST. I think the only way would be an ldif file in an init-script -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

Yes, initial entries.
That's not configurable - not even with YaST.
Well, the initial entries does get in there using YaST. If I go through the paces with YaST -> Network Services -> LDAP Server, and then YaST -> Network Services -> LDAP Client, YaST does the job for me, as can be seen in YaST -> Network Services -> LDAP Browser (or a simple slapcat). However, aiming for an unattended server installation, I would like to automate all of the above, but I don't know how since so little (or nothing) of the YaST internal behavior is documented.

Yes, probably. Thanks /Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

ah, okay. But only for userdata. I have to talk with the yast2-users maintainer about that. Should be doable in autoyast too. -- ciao, Uwe Gansert Uwe Gansert, Server Technologies Team SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Business: http://www.suse.de/~ug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org

Yeah, well, what do you mean by user data here? At this point I haven't really started adding anything to the LDAP database. These were all preparations to *be able to* add for example users to the LDAP database. That's why I call it "initialization".

I think so too. Thanks /Lars -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-autoinstall+help@opensuse.org
