This version requires you to upgrade your databases if you are using a bdb backend ... you need to save your data before you upgrade .. something like this:
cd
service ldap stop
slapcat > slapcat.out
upgrade RPMS
cd /var/lib/ldap
remove all old databases
make sure you have a DB_CONFIG file in /var/lib/ldap
modify your /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file to point to these (they used to be in /var/run with no openldap dir):
pidfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.pid argsfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.args
also add this index to slap.conf:
index uniqueMember pres
see the above listed README file if you want to add smbk5pwd
slapadd ~/slapcat.out
--------^^^^^
(should be):
slapadd -l ~/slapcat.out
chown -R ldap.ldap /var/lib/ldap
slaptest
slapindex -v
(Prior to restarting ldap, you need to look at the permissions of the files again ... sometimes when running slapindex the files are produced as root and not ldap. I did not see a way to pass in the user name. So, another chown here will prevent issues):
chown -R ldap.ldap /var/lib/ldap
service ldap start
That should work ... I have moved this version of openldap into production on my companies samba PDCs ... it seems to work well.
