Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
Setup system Ubuntu Server LTS 10.4
following the gui i expirienced a few problems:
OpenLDAP (slapd: 2.4.21-0ubuntu5)
ldapscripts: 1.9.0-1
using the guide from https:/
1) the step "Setting up ACL" doesnt work at all and all what i got was an ldap credential error.
2) in "User and Group Management" the mentioned "ldapscripts" contain another bug which is in the file /usr/share/
This file overrides the previously defined SUFFIX, GSUFFIX, USUFFIX and MSUFFIX values which causes the script not to work. additionally the only way i got the package to work was to set the BINDPWD explicitly and discard the BINDPWDFILE setting. to make the ldapscripts work i replaced the runtime.debian file with an empty copy.
best wishes
