I have a LDIF file with a test user and I would like to change the password.
I used the ldapmodify command:
ldapmodify -h localhost -D uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=mytest,dc=org -w <password> <<!
dn: uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=mytest,dc=org
changetype: modify
replace: userPassword
userPassword: myNewPassword
!
modifying entry "uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=mytest,dc=org"
It's looks like working
But when I open my file.ldif, the password has don't change and ldapsearch command don't work.
ldapsearch -x -h localhost -D uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=mytest,dc=org -w myNewPassword -b uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=mytest,dc=org
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)
Thank you for the help

I'm new to openLdap , I am setting up a module for monitoring using on-line configuration (OLC) based on this guide : https://blog.kmp.or.at/monitoring-openldap/.
i use ldapmodify as bellow :
ldapmodify -x -H ldap:/// -D "cn=config" -W -f module.ldif
result is :
modifying entry "cn=module{0},cn=config"
ldap_modify: No such object (32)
content of module.ldif is :
dn: cn=module{0},cn=config
changetype: modify
add: olcModuleLoad
olcModuleLoad: {1}back_monitor
i understand that i can't modify on non-existing entry so i tried to add a new entry for DN = (cn=module,cn=config).
i tried to create new dn using :
dn: cn=module,cn=config
objectClass: olcModuleList
cn: module
olcModulepath: /etc/openldap/libexec/openldap
but i got this error
ldap_add: Invalid syntax (21)
additional info: objectClass: value #0 invalid per syntax
Do i really need to create this DN , or it must be created during setup.
No, this entry is created during setup.
It seems you missed to setup slapd.d directory for online configuration (OLC) :
slapcat -f /path/to/slapd.conf -F /path/to/slapd.d
Also, choose the appropriate SASL mechanism for authentication :
Either use EXTERNAL mechanism with ldapi:/// transport (relies on the client process uid and gid via Unix sockets) :
`ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f module.ldif`
Or LDAP (default) with options -D and -W for binding :
` ldapmodify -x -H ldap://example.com -D cn=manager,dc=example,dc=com -W -f module.ldif`
I think what I am trying to do is fairly simple, I want to setup ldap so that incoming binds check that the password is correct and the user is a member of a specific group.
Running the following query yields the following
ldapsearch -x -LLL -H ldap:/// -b uid=myname,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com dn memberof
Result
dn: uid=myname,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
memberOf: cn=admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
I have tried the following query
ldapsearch -x -H "ldap://localhost" -D "(&(cn=My Name)(memberOf=cn=admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com))" -W -b "dc=example,dc=com"
ldapsearch keeps throwing the following error
ldap_bind: Invalid DN syntax (34)
additional info: invalid DN
What am I doing wrong?
There are 2 things to fix in your search query :
the filter part should be placed after all options and before the list of attributes if any.
the -D option requires an argument, a bind dn to bind to the LDAP directory.
In other words : ldapsearch -x -H <ldapuri> -D <binddn> -W -b <basedn> <filter>
Assuming you can use this bind dn cn=manager,dc=example,dc=com, you should end up with a query looking like this :
ldapsearch -x -H "ldap://localhost" -D "cn=manager,dc=example,dc=com" -W -b "dc=example,dc=com" "(&(cn=My Name)(memberOf=cn=admin,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com))"

Here is my LDAP ORG Structure:
I created user with first, last name with password. But it is not working when am trying to connect using jdbc. Error says invalid credentials. Then I tried ldapsearch as follows:
I followed this process for users and group creation:
root#ip:/home# ldapwhoami
SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started
Please enter your password:
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Invalid credentials (49)
additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database
root#ip:/# ldapsearch -x -LLL -h ip -D username -w password -b"cn=admin,dc=ivhdev,dc=local" -s sub "(objectClass=*)" "givenName=username*"
ldap_bind: Invalid DN syntax (34)
additional info: invalid DN
Please suggest/correct me, if am passing the right info in DN syntax. I am unable to validate the user credentials with their name and password.
The -D option takes the DN for logging in to your LDAP server.
The -b option takes the search base in your LDAP tree where you want to search for the user's given name.
So, your ldapsearch command becomes:
ldapsearch -x -LLL -h ip -D 'cn=admin,dc=ivhdev,dc=local' -w password -b 'dc=users,dc=local' -s sub '(objectClass=*)' 'givenName=username*'
If you use the Apache Directory Studio (http://directory.apache.org/studio/) you can see the actual ldapsearch commands used by the application. Maybe this is useful for anyone.
I add a new domain to openldap mdb database, but I can not access it, what's the problem?
Here is the process:
$ ldapadd -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL -f newdb.ldif
SASL/EXTERNAL authentication started
SASL username: gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth
SASL SSF: 0
adding new entry "olcDatabase=mdb,cn=config"
cat newdb.ldif
dn: olcDatabase=mdb,cn=config
objectClass: olcMdbConfig
olcDatabase: mdb
olcDbDirectory: /var/lib/ldap
olcSuffix: dc=example01,dc=com
olcRootDN: cn=admin,dc=example01,dc=com
olcRootPW: {SSHA}J9qNsUzm8nVDQdqWV6XUC0vZQWtml7Cs
I can list it through search base "cn=config":
$ ldapsearch -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL -b "cn=config" "(olcRootDN=*)" olcSuffix olcRootDN olcRootPW -LLL -Q
dn: olcDatabase={21}mdb,cn=config
olcSuffix: dc=example01,dc=com
olcRootDN: cn=admin,dc=example01,dc=com
olcRootPW: {SSHA}J9qNsUzm8nVDQdqWV6XUC0vZQWtml7Cs
But I can not access it, and I can not add items to it:
$ ldapsearch -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL -b 'dc=example01,dc=com' -s base '(objectclass=*)' -LLL -Q
No such object (32)
Any help is appreciated.
Adding the configuration for a new database doesn't create the top entry of in that database.
You need to use ldapadd to add the entry "dc=example01,dc=com" (with an objectClass Domain)
I have an LDIF file that contains a bunch of test users.
I would like to change the password for some of these users and was wondering what would be the best way to do so.
Use ldapmodify with LDIF, for example:
ldapmodify -h hostname -p port -D dn -w password <<!
dn: uid=user,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: modify
replace: userPassword
userPassword: new-password
!
or specify a filename:
ldapmodify -c -a -f file.ldif -h hostname -p port -D dn -w password
Of course, use the correct attribute names, distinguished names, and so forth. The distinguished name used for the bind of the ldapmodify tool must have access rights to modify the password of the distinguished name specified in the LDIF.
