Hi list,
I'm trying to make a simple setup using CyrusImapd with OpenLdap user
database.
The following errors are listed in /var/log/messages:
imap[36714]: auxpropfunc error invalid parameter supplied
ptloader[36715]: starting: $Id: ptloader.c,v 1.39 2004/12/17 16:32:26 ken3
Exp $ (ldap)
ptloader[36715]: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind() failed 16 (No such attribute).
imap[36714]: ptload(): bad response from ptloader server:
ptsmodule_connect() failed
These are ptloader errors.
Can you please explain what is ptloader responsible for
ptloader is a driver for the pts module, an cyrus imapd authorization
mechanism.
or where can I
found the documentation for it.
imapd.conf man pages and you should also read cyrus imapd documentation.
imap[36714]: bad userid authenticated
imap[36714]: badlogin: localhost [::1] plaintext some_existing_ldap_user
invalid user
and in auth.log:
imap[36714]: auxpropfunc error invalid parameter supplied
imap[36714]: bad userid authenticated
Something is wrong with your ldapdb configuration and possibly openldap
config. See cyrus-sasl-src/doc/options.html
I've read what you sugested. Sorry but no clues (for me).
My (maybe too simple) config follows
imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
allowplaintext: yes
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_auxprop_plugin: ldapdb
sasl_mech_list: plain login
ldap_uri: ldap://127.0.0.1/
ldap_base: dc=foo,dc=org
ldap_bind_dn: cn=Manager,dc=foo,dc=org
ldap_password: password
These are pts/ldap config params. More than likely you do not need those.
See cyrus-imapd/doc for more on authentication vs authorization.
If not here where should i tell it about the ldap server?
What do you want to use the ldap server for, authentication, authorization
or both? You probably just need authentication and therefore you need the
ldapdb auxprop plugin (or saslauthd/ldap or other saslauthd mechanisms
that indirectly use ldap such as pam). I suggest you start with cyrus
sasl docs.
