Hi,

I sent this from my work email but its not appeared in the mailing list, am 
trying it from my hotmail acct to see if it's mroe successful.


Newbie post, let me 
know if you need any other info, inside leg measurement, blood type 
etc.

I wanted to restrict users to logging 
onto specific hosts, I.e. to keep developers away from Production hosts etc. I 
managed to do this on thread 
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-users-789466/ 
using Sun's SDSCC.

We're now migrating to OpenLDAP and I need the same 
functionality. I found the 'ismemberof' attribute does not appear to be part of 
the default schemas that come with Redhat 5.3 RPM's, Openldap is V 2.3.43. 


I found an interesting article at 
http://forums.devshed.com/ldap-progr...te-191444.html on how 
to create your own schema's. So I created a 
file called 
/etc/openldap/schema/memberof.schema and put in the following text:

# The 
isMemberOf attribute associated with an entity is a
# collection of values 
each of which identifies a group to
# which that entity 
belongs.
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.5.1.1
NAME 
'isMemberOf'
DESC 'identifiers for groups to which containing entity 
belongs'
EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
SUBSTR 
caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
SYNTAX '1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15' 
)

Then I added this schema to the slapd.conf and restarted 
ldap.

In the client, I've used the same 'ismemberof' line from my 
previous thread, so it says:

nss_base_passwd 
ou=people,dc=ldn,dc=sw,dc=com?sub?isMemberOf=cn=access,ou=auth,dc=ldn,dc=sw,dc=com

Having 
tried MANY combination's of ?, ( and ) it won't work. 

So, can anyone 
comment on my schema, it right? is it complete sh!te?
Does the nss_apsswd 
line need changing now I've moved to Openldap?

Comments on a postcard 
please.

BTW - I've been looking at LDAP books to cure my insomnia, and 
found http://www.amazon.co.uk/LDAP-Directo...2282151&sr=1-1. The 
books.google.com site had some useful pages from this book but the review on 
amazon is not great.

TIA

Stuart.
