Hey, I cant seem to get around this problem in anyway.
I am setting up an integrated mail server. I am planning on using postfix with a dovecot backend and LDAP with SLPD. I was having a problem connecting to my LDAP server i configured after usings TLS and I can only connect using LDAPbindV2. Even though it is outdate i am ok with that but now when I start the MTA and use advanced (for postfix) I am getting this error:
Unable to connect to LDAP server.
init
Before without allowing v2 bind i cannot connect period. I been googling for hours and I cant seem to find an answer so i am asking for the Suse community help please. If anyone could point me in the right direction
i would appriciate it very much
If you connected via TLS then you have to talk to port 636 and also set up Postfix to deal with SSL. If Postfix is not expecting TLS, then it would try to connect to port 389 and nobody would be listening there.
ldapsearch is a good tool to check if your LDAP server is returning results. Also netstat or lsof to check where slapd is listening. That is, if the slapd is on your machine.
All of my ports are currently open for ldap and postfix. Its still no go. I get Cannot connect to ldap server when running the mta. And if i go to the details i get “Init”
I am running SLPD and have it set as a DA I think it might be a firewall issue now because when i check for the LDAP server through SLPD it doesnt come up I am going to go through my ports again.
I havnt even go the chance to configure POSTFIX. I am getting this error when i begin to config it through the gui yast mta tool
Any other idea’s incase this goes bad I am currently on a M$ machine so I cant work on it jsut yet.
