Hi, i'm relatively new to puppet and to this list and have a problem configuring puppet for using ldap nodes. I have a very basic testing setup on FreeBSD7_0 using puppet-dev port (0.24.5) The error i get is:
warning: Retrying LDAP connection
err: LDAP Search failed
When tcpdumping i can see, that puppetmasterd is trying to do simple
auth with binddn="<ROOT>" and the ldap.authentication field is simply
missing (no password sent.) With ldapsearch (authing as my puppet user)
and the same filters used by puppetmasterd i get the correct response.
What authentication mechanism am i supposed to use and what are the
resprective puppet.conf parameters ?
puppet.conf on the server:
[puppetmasterd]
ldapserver = myldapserver.fqdn.example.org
ldapbase = ou=puppet,ou=rest,ou=of,o=it,c=org
ldapuser = cn=puppetadmin,ou=ldapaccounts,ou=rest,ou=of,o=it,c=org
ldappassword = puppetpassword
ldapclassattrs = puppetclass
node_terminus = ldap
puppet.conf on the client:
[puppetd]
server = puppetmasterd.fqdn.example.org
