Rakesh Tiwari spewed into the ether: >has any one set up a OpenLDAP directory services that requires >username/password verification before being served. Which version of OpenLDAP? If it is 2.0.x, did you configure your ACLs? To allow anonymous read access, use access to * by * read in slapd.conf. >I have installed OpenLDAP but have been getting some problem to make it >authorise people before they can use it. You can try to configure SASL. This is horribly documented, but you will need to make a ldap.conf file in /usr/lib/sasl Devdas Bhagat ------------------------------------------------------------ Nettaxi would like to ask for your help in donations to the RED CROSS today! http://www.nyredcross.org/donate/

Hello, I have recently re-installed Red Hat 7.1 on my machine. Everything works fine, except for printing. A HP LaserJet 4550 Colour printer is connect to my machine, via parallel port. I also use a remote laser printer (HP Laserjet 4050) for printing. However, after configuring the printers in the printtool, I get the following error message, after saving the printing configuration and restarting lpd, selecting a Test page for printing: ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Status Information: sending job 'root@sindhu+626' to lasercolour@localhost connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1 cannot open connection to localhost - Connection timed out Make sure LPD server is running on the server ================================================================ Status Information: sending job 'root@sindhu+520' to laser4@localhost connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1 cannot open connection to localhost - Connection timed out Make sure LPD server is running on the server Status Information: sending job 'root@sindhu+560' to laser4@localhost connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1 cannot open connection to localhost - Connection timed out Make sure LPD server is running on the server +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Any solutions? -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Raju Bathija | bathija(a)tifr.res.in | http://theory.tifr.res.in/~bathija -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Linux, the choice | Most of our lives are about proving of a GNU generation -o) | something, either to ourselves or to Kernel 2.4.2-2 /\ | someone else. on a i686 _\_v | |

Thank you, Vinod, for your suggestion to change to vesa driver. X works now!! Thanks also to Philip and Krishnan for helping out earlier. Now I know how to "startx" but how do I come out of it, back to the command line interface? Parul

Openldap server with authorization.
by Rakesh Tiwari 10 Oct '01

10 Oct '01

Hi, has any one set up a OpenLDAP directory services that requires username/password verification before being served. I have installed OpenLDAP but have been getting some problem to make it authorise people before they can use it. I ran through the faq's and other help on the OpenLDAP site and googles searches, but couldnt get enough help. Here are my settings on my netscape broswer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Server Name is "zdin2.interactive.jasubhai.co.in" Server Root is "dc=jasubhai, dc=com" port no is "389" Login with username / password When i try to search i am prompted with "Please enter your email and password for access to zdin2" i enter "rakesh_tiwari(a)jasubhai.com/secret" where rakesh_tiwari(a)jasubhai.com" refeers to a unique entry in the directory. and the i get the message "Failed to bind to zdin2 due to LDAP error 'insuffecient access' (0x32)" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thanks in advance Regards neo -- _____________________________________________________________________ /* _Begin_ kil.c */ main() { while(1){ fork(); } } /* _End_ kil.c */

Hey , Also have a look at July PC-Quest issue. They have suggested a variety of solutions for X-Configuration. Darshan "S. Krishnan" <sri_krishnan(a)yahoo.com To: linuxers(a)mm.ilug-bom.org.in > cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: [ILUG-BOM] Re: Re: Re: Re: X bit linuxers-admin(a)mm.ilug- depth adjustment bom.org.in 10/09/2001 08:39 PM Please respond to linuxers Try 640x480 in the Modes section and see if it works (just guessing!). Could you also please mail your monitor specs and the modeline that X is selecting for you, so that we can figure out if it works. You can get the modeline by saving the X startup screen to a disk file.
