Installing openLDAP

Well this process has been amazingly horrendous. I would like to make contact with someone who has successfully installed openLDAP on their OSX box. Even using fink I can't get it to install.

I have a secure SSL Apache server and want to allow LDAP authentication. I also wan to mirror our businesses LDAP server as a back up for them.

Thanks in advance

I don't know anyone who has successfully installed OpenLDAP. I always get something broken having to do with threads. Quite annoying.

I did it :D

You have to get the latest source code from the openldap CVS server.
That built and tested just fine (I did it a couple of months ago under
10.0.x).

The officially released tarball does fail miserably on the threads stuff.
 
I did install from the CVS and it failed as normal. Could you post some simple instructions from how you achieved this so I can mimic your way and see if it is just a 10.1 flaw?

Thanks
 
sorry but I dont remember how exactly I did it but it wasn't any heroics.

The CVS version found the thread libraries properly and the compile went
smooth.

Where in Boston are you? I'm in Waltham. When I get into the office,
I can see if I can maybe tar up what I have for you but I may have cleaned
things up.
 
Hmm. Well, I live in Virginia, so that doesn't help. =)

So, 2.0.15 doesn't work? That was the latest release I tried. I don't think I can download the cvs from where I have an internet connection (NOT on my mac).

Excellent as Usual.
 
that stuff is NOT in the 2.0.18 release.

When I first tried openldap a few months ago, the released version (2.0.15 ?)
didn't support Darwin. Apparently, the newest release (18) does although
there are one or two tiny problems (the -fno-common problem)

AS usual any ideas appreciated
 
I made a tarball for you.

anon ftp to ftp0.lsil.com
bin
cd pub
get openldap_macosx.tar.gz

you will not be able to 'ls' or 'dir'

The tarball should have everything you need. you want to put the
libdl.dylib in /usr/local/lib

The .tar.gz will auto-delete in a few days.
 
It seems to be working fine. I decieded to reinstall OSX and 2.0.;18 installed without problem. Know of any good LDAP browsers/editors? Don;t want to go the LDIF method everytime.

Thanks again for all you help.

Robert
