1.4 LDAP Master/Slave configuration

[amurillo]

I installed 1.4 from scratch and I can't find the UI configuration for LDAP master/slave. Which packages do I need to install or where can I find it?

[peterr]

did you include ebox-usersandgroups in your install?  The ldap master/slave settings appear on the GUI under users and groups - until you configure master/slave settings you will just have an option 'mode'
After you have set up mode you will then have the full usersandgroups setting menus and mode will no longer be available.

[amurillo]

The package is installed, however I can only see the following options under Users and Groups:
- Users
- Groups
- Default User Template
- LDAP Info
- Slave Status

I cannot see the "Mode" option.

In command line, run:

Code: [Select]

sudo /usr/share/ebox-usersandgroups/ebox-usersandgroups-reinstall

[amurillo]

Still not able to see the option. Here is the install log:

Code: [Select]

Now you can go to 'Users and Groups -> Mode' and configure it again.

To reproduce, follow these steps on a clean Ubuntu 8.04 Server (64-bit) install:

Code: [Select]

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 342D17AC
echo -e "# apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 342D17AC\ndeb \
http://ppa.launchpad.net/ebox/1.4/ubuntu hardy main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ebox.list
aptitude update


Code: [Select]

aptitude -y purge apparmor
reboot


Code: [Select]

aptitude update
aptitude full-upgrade
aptitude -y install ebox-antivirus ebox-dhcp ebox-dns ebox-ebackup ebox-firewall ebox-ids ebox-l7-protocols \
ebox-monitor ebox-network ebox-ntp ebox-openvpn ebox-printers ebox-samba ebox-software \
ebox-squid ebox-trafficshaping ebox-webserver ebox-radius ebox-usersandgroups

I'm in 32-bit. I don't think 64-bit is supported yet.

[amurillo]

Seems the issue is that the "Mode" option dissapears when the "Users and Groups" module is enabled for the first time.

Is there a way to revert back to the original "Mode" option? I will make some tests tonight.

[Saturn2888]

Using this script:

Code: [Select]

sudo /usr/share/ebox-usersandgroups/ebox-usersandgroups-reinstall
No other way currently. I wonder if that's one of those features for the future.

The script appeared to finish without errors on your setup. I wonder why it's not showing mode. It has you setup permanently as a master.

[amurillo]

It finally worked, I had to:

1) Disable the module and remove the package
2) Install the package
3) sudo /usr/share/ebox-usersandgroups/ebox-usersandgroups-reinstall

If I enable the module, it defaults to master setup so I need to set it to slave before enabling it.

[Saturn2888]

Yeah, you need to do it before enabling, hahaha.
