Friends,
I've been struggling with pam_ldap for three days now and cannot see
what I am doing wrong. I'm trying to use OpenLDAP for
authentication, though I threw nss_ldap in for good measure. What's
so baffling to me is that I can add a new user to the directory and
verify its existence using "id" but SSH refuses to bind.
Here's an excerpt from my /var/log/auth.log:
May 12 16:46:28 static-host sshd[53253]: Illegal user testuser from
192.168.1.150
May 12 16:46:28 static-host sshd[53253]: Failed none for illegal user
testuser from 192.168.1.150 port 53074 ssh2
May 12 16:46:28 static-host sshd[53255]: pam_ldap: error trying to
bind (Invalid credentials)
The debug log from pam_ldap says this:
ldap_create
ldap_url_parse_ext(ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/)
ldap_simple_bind
ldap_sasl_bind
ldap_send_initial_request

and the second log created at the same time says:
(identical to the previous log up to ldap_msgfree)
ber_scanf fmt ({iaa}) ber:
ldap_chase_referrals
read1msg: V2 referral chased, mark request completed, id = 1
new result: res_errno: 49, res_error: <>, res_matched: <>
read1msg: 0 new referrals
read1msg: mark request completed, id = 1

res_errno: 49, res_error: <>, res_matched: <>

ldap_free_connection
ldap_free_connection: refcnt 1
ldap_parse_result
ber_scanf fmt ({iaa) ber:
ber_scanf fmt (}) ber:
ldap_msgfree
ldap_err2string
I'm guessing that this means that I can bind with my binddn but not
with the uid=testuser.
Meanwhile, nss_ldap seems to be working correctly, because an id on
the same user returns:
uid=1003(testuser) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel)
The nss_ldap.conf is symlinked to ldap.conf, which looks like this:
host 127.0.0.1
base dc=swyc,dc=org
uri ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/
ldap_version 3
binddn cn=proxyuser,dc=swyc,dc=org
bindpw secret
rootbinddn cn=Manager,dc=swyc,dc=org
scope sub
timelimit 30
bind_timelimit 30
bind_policy hard
idle_timelimit 3600
pam_filter objectclass=posixAccount
pam_login_attribute uid
pam_member_attribute memberUid
pam_password SSHA
nss_base_passwd ou=People,dc=swyc,dc=org?one
nss_base_group ou=Group,dc=swyc,dc=org?one
I can run ldapsearch and get the right data back:
ldapsearch -H "ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/" -x -W -D
"cn=proxyuser,dc=swyc,dc=org" "(&(objectClass=posixAccount)
(uid=testuser))"
dn: uid=testuser,ou=People,dc=swyc,dc=org
uid: testuser
cn: test user
homeDirectory: /home/testuser
uidNumber: 1003
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: shadowAccount
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
gidNumber: 0
gecos: test user
shadowLastChange: 12915
sn: testuser
userPassword:: e1NTSEF9clM2c0xnR3dtSW5ybzNNUFUra0N2WFoydFZJUVZ0ZFE=
loginShell: /bin/sh
I'm a complete openldap neophyte, biting off more than I can chew for
sure. However, I just know that if I don't get a directory operating
now, I'll wish I had done it later, especially since my next project
is to get open-xchange running. I apologize for pasting a bunch of
logs into this message, but I've been staring at them all day. If
you can tell me what should have caught my attention, that would be
very helpful!
