All right, here's next step.
As I mentioned, I linked both local/etc/ldap.conf and
local/etc/nss_pam.conf symbolically to /local/etc/openldap/ldap.conf
(OpenLDAP's ldap.conf). This file only contains a restricted common
subset of options understood by OpenLDAP's clients, nss_ldap and
pam_ldap. Obviously, this did not work (again: I already installed
successfully OpenLDAP, nss_ldap and pam_ldap!).
So I turned to have separate files for each library and facility. The
only thing I changed was the default dc=xxx tags and the uri tag to
access either local socket, local secure port or local normal port. On
all three facilities OpenLDAP was listening, as sockstat(1) reported
positively.
Well, I also changed /etc/nsswitch.conf to look first for 'giles', the
nfor 'ldap' for group and passwords. I also have ACLs defined in slpad.conf.
The problem at the moment is, when nss_ldap running, login as root on
console takes several minutes (like a NIS server has gone away and I
thing nss_ldap does not reach its LDAP server so it is of the same
quality like a missing NIS). I tried to avoid this having 'files' prior
to 'ldap' in nsswitch.conf, but that does not work.
Logins from outside is impossible, I see a lot of error messages on
console nss_ldap can't contact it's OpenLDAP server.
When logged in on console, I can do a simple slapcat(1) and get a lot of
definitions, so tis shows a running and resping OpenLDAP server.
I feel seriously desperate because I don't know how to trace the
communication paths between the pam/nss clients and the OpenLDAP server.
At the beginning of setting up the environment, I followed strictly
suggestions and examples shown in the OpenLDAP tutorials from OpenLDAP
itself - but with no success! Other tutorials around the web targetting
mostly outdated environments (FreeBSD 5.1, older OpenLDAP versions or
strange Linux setups).
In my case, I expect some errors from the OpenLDAP server if a client
tries to access the server itself without having permissions granted
accessing, reading or even writing to the directory, but all I get is a
failure in connecting to the OpenLDAP server as it would not exists.
This is strange! maybe it is also a problem with the TLS/SLL facility,
but this should also be reported either by the client or the OpenLDAP
server itself. But nothing is shown so far reflecting a problem. Without
any SSL/TLS certifacte for encryption, I end up in the same strange
problem. Even SAMBA struggles when connecting to LDAP services - because
it also can not find the target.
So, I suspect some problems with FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT. Is nobody out here
utilizing FBSD 7.0 in combination with OpenLDAP (most recent version
as taken from the ports in conjunction with pam_ldap/nss_ldap)?
Strange,
regards,

There should be an nss_ldap.conf and pam_ldap.conf in /usr/local/etc .
You need to set a variety of settings there. What do they look like?
Remember: pkg_info -L pam_ldap nss_ldap!
Also, not sure about the TCP FIN_2 issue -- probably just the usual
shakes and bangs with -current. ~BAS

So, I'll feel free reporting my bad luck. This is a reference page I
consulted for some hints, but without success:
http://www.cultdeadsheep.org/FreeBSD/docs/Quick_and_dirty_FreeBSD_5_x_and_nss_ldap_mini-HOWTO.html
First, OS ist the most recent FreeBSD 7.0.
OpenLDAP is openldap-server-2.3.38, standard config, no SASL support
or anything else apart from default
PAM_LDAP
NSS_LDAP
I renamed cached.conf to nscd.conf as suggested (for your information).
In /etc/nsswitch.conf I changed
#
# nsswitch.conf(5) - name service switch configuration file
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/nsswitch.conf,v 1.1 2006/05/03 15:14:47 ume Exp $

I also changed /etc/pam.d/sshd to this:
#

Both configuration files for nss_ldap and pam_ldap respective got
linked to /usr/localetc/openldap/ldap.conf, which looks like this:
#
# LDAP Defaults
#
# See ldap.conf(5) for details
# This file should be world readable but not world writable.
BASE dc=foo,dc=org
#URI ldapi:///
URI ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/
#SSL start_tls
#SIZELIMIT 12
#TIMELIMIT 15
#DEREF never
#TLS_CACERT #TLS_CERT #TLS_KEY #TLS_REQCERT
allow
#TLS_REQCERT demand
#TLS_CHECKPEER yes
My /etc/rc.conf.local file has the following OpenLDAP specific entry:
###########################################################
### OpenLDAP Server ###
###########################################################
slapd_enable="YES"
#slapd_flags='-d 3 -4 -s 4 -h
"ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/ ldap:/// ldaps:///"'
slapd_flags='-4 -s 4 -h "ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2fldapi/
ldap://192.168.2.210 ldaps://192.168.2.210"'
slapd_sockets="/var/run/openldap/ldapi"
My OpenLDAP config file has SSL-certificates disabled.
After the installation of nss_ldap the slapd server takes several
decades of seconds to start. But it starts well and after it has
initiated itself, I can do on the server a simple 'slapcat' and receive.
But I can't access the LDAP server. Doing an 'id testuser' results in
'id not found'.
On the console, I receive massively errors like this:
TCP: [127.0.0.1]:389 to [127.0.0.1]:63896 tcpflags 0x18<PUSH,ACK>;
tcp_do_segment: FIN_WAIT_2: Received data after socket was closed,
sending RST and removing tcpcb
Well, I checked sockstat for a listening slapd and I found slapd
listening on both loopback, local NIC adn on both ports 389 and 636.
So what is wrong ?

FreeBSD 5.x and 6.x work fine with both PAM and NSS -> LDAP w/ TLS
(PKI). All other services (RADIUS, Apache ((mod_ldap, mod_pam_auth),
PHP,
interactive shell, SFTP, etc.) can be tied into LDAP either directly or
via PAM.
As for password change, I don't know if anyone has a passwd(1) binary
that properly changes the LDAP password attribute -- if there is and its
out there, it requires ACL insanity. Like Oracle, you can either
understand OpenLDAP ACLs, or you have real work to do >:}
Check the nss_pam.conf and nss_ldap.conf configs in local/etc/*
-- set to "debug 1" to get debugging info. Feel free to share
error messages.

Hello out there,
I have a problem with setting up an FreeBSD box as OpenLDAP server
with several services, like SAMBA, NFS.
The intention is to have a FreeBSD 7.0 fileserver (NFS, SAMBA) also
acting as OpenLDAP server. So far. OpenLDAP is up and running, using
TLS/SSL certificate. SAMBA is also up and running - but it never
connects to the OpenLDAP server due to an connection error, but this
shouldn't be the subject here, I have more basic questions about
what FreeBSD already has and what to install additionally.
I want customers to log in on the FBSD box, so they sould log in
(authenticated via OpenLDAP), change their passwords and shells and
those user specifica should be updated on the LDAP server.
I already installed pam_ldap-port but ran into trouble because
FreeBSD's nss obviously does not have a tag 'ldap' to refere to an
OpenLDAP server (and not files).
Well, I'm confused and not very firm with OpenLDAP/PAM/NSS stuff,
especially if SSL/TLS come into play and I would like to ask those
herein administering those setups, especially within a hybrid
NFS/SAMBA fileservicing environment, where to find up to date
informationes/howto/tipps.
Most websites and HowTo's I found were Linux related or, if related
to FreeBSD, outdated.
Sorry beeing so unspecific, but the problem is complex (to me) so I
would better ask for those who are willing to help or give hints and
tips.
Thanks in advance and for your patience,
Oliver
