Hello list I am trying to use OpenLDAP also as a repository of the user and password to the SASL mechanism. The problem I am facing is that it only works if the userPassword is kept in clear text and not in a hashed form. I would like to use the hashed form because my application has a proprietary backend where the data goes over the wire and for that I need userPassword attribute to be not in clear text.
Below is what I tried to do, based on OpenLDAP 2.3.24 running on RH4 U3 (Nahant). Any help will be appreciated. Zohar > ./configure --prefix=`pwd` I added to the default slapd.conf with this entry authz-regexp "uid=([^,]*)" "cn=$1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com" The run command > ./slapd -f slapd.conf -d -1 -h ldap://localhost:9999 1>& slapd.log 2>&1 & Available SASL mechanism > ldapsearch -h localhost:9999 -x -b '' supportedSASLMechanisms -s base -LLL dn: supportedSASLMechanisms: DIGEST-MD5 supportedSASLMechanisms: CRAM-MD5 supportedSASLMechanisms: GSSAPI supportedSASLMechanisms: NTLM Data I am going to add > cat ./new_user.ldif dn: dc=my-domain,dc=com objectclass: dcObject objectclass: organization o: my-org dc: my-domain dn: cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectclass: organizationalRole cn: Manager dn: cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectclass: organizationalRole cn: users dn: cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectclass: organizationalRole objectclass: simpleSecurityObject cn: user1 userPassword: {MD5}pyLGPbjshiWvbPccuMLZOQ== #password: pass1 dn: cn=user3,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectclass: organizationalRole objectclass: simpleSecurityObject cn: user3 userPassword: {CLEARTEXT}pass3 > ldapadd -h localhost:9999 -x -w secret -D cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com -f > ./new_user.ldif > ldapsearch -h localhost:9999 -x -LLL -b cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com dn: cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectClass: organizationalRole objectClass: simpleSecurityObject cn: user1 userPassword:: e01ENX1weUxHUGJqc2hpV3ZiUGNjdU1MWk9RPT0= > ldapsearch -h localhost:9999 -Y DIGEST-MD5 -U user1 -w pass1 -LLL -b > cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49) additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database > ldapsearch -h localhost:9999 -Y DIGEST-MD5 -U user3 -w pass3 -LLL -b > cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started SASL username: user3 SASL SSF: 128 SASL installing layers dn: cn=user1,cn=users,dc=my-domain,dc=com objectClass: organizationalRole objectClass: simpleSecurityObject cn: user1 userPassword:: e01ENX1weUxHUGJqc2hpV3ZiUGNjdU1MWk9RPT0=
