Problem initializing Kerberos Server with Yast

[wslyhbb]

Hi, I am having a problem initializing Kerberos Server using Yast. I am getting the following error: “LDAP Initialization failed.”

OS version: 11.3 (64-bit)
Steps:

1. Open Yast
2. Click Kerberos Server
3. I select “Use existing LDAP server as database back-end” and click Next
4. Realm is autopopulated, I populate the password and click Next
5. LDAP Server URI is empty, LDAP base DN, Kerberos container DN, KDC Bind DN, and Kadmin Bind DN are autopopulated. I populate the password for the KDC Bind DN and the Kadmin Bind DN and click Next.
6. Then I get the above error.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you.

Supposing your ldap server is on your machine, I would suggest setting the URI to “ldap://localhost”.

THANK YOU! I had tried putting in localhost, but had not thought to put in ldap://localhost.
