Hello list, I have a problem when connecting to an LDAP server that I can't explain.
My client (an apache webserver running woody) and 2 ldap servers (A and B) are located on network 1. A third LDAP server (C) is located on another network, that is connected with a firewall. Connectivity to that server is ok (I can browse our intranet that's hosted on it). I can connect to LDAP server A and B, but not to C. The strange thing is that it doesn't even try. When I see what packets are being sent (tethereal log included), I can see that connecting to either A or B results in LDAP packets being sent over the wire. However, when connecting to LDAP server C, nothing happens. Not a single packet is sent. Here is what it looks like on the command line and in the tethereal log. I changed the ip addresses. Zarquon's ip address is 10.10.10.9 zarquon:/var/www# ldapsearch -h 10.10.10.2 ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: No such attribute (no delay) zarquon:/var/www# ldapsearch -h 10.10.10.3 ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Unknown authentication method (no delay) zarquon:/var/www# ldapsearch -h 10.100.20.2 ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (after a few seconds) Here is the tethereal log (ugly due to the wrapping): 0.000000 10.10.10.9 -> 10.10.10.2 TCP 36155 > ldap [SYN] Seq=3581423164 Ack=0 Win=5840 Len=0 0.001394 10.10.10.2 -> 10.10.10.9 TCP ldap > 36155 [SYN, ACK] Seq=1572044337 Ack=3581423165 Win=65535 Len=0 0.001450 10.10.10.9 -> 10.10.10.2 TCP 36155 > ldap [ACK] Seq=3581423165 Ack=1572044338 Win=5840 Len=0 ... 3.440429 10.10.10.9 -> 10.10.10.3 TCP 36156 > ldap [SYN] Seq=3575832241 Ack=0 Win=5840 Len=0 3.440739 10.10.10.3 -> 10.10.10.9 TCP ldap > 36156 [SYN, ACK] Seq=3841658316 Ack=3575832242 Win=17520 Len=0 3.440806 10.10.10.9 -> 10.10.10.3 TCP 36156 > ldap [ACK] Seq=3575832242 Ack=3841658317 Win=5840 Len=0 ... For the connection to LDAP server C, there's nothing. Is there a logical explanation for this, or is it something I did (can't imagine what.)
