====== Install OpenLDAP 2.4 on CentOS 7 ======

===== Install packages on the server =====

Install rpm packages 
  yum -y install openldap openldap-clients openldap-servers

===== Generate the LDAP config file =====

First build a slapd.conf whith basic configuration

==== List schemas to add to your config file ====

<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ~]# mkdir ldap ; cd ldap
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# rpm -ql openldap-servers krb5-server-ldap | grep '\.schema$' | sed -e "/README/d" -e "s/^/include /g" | tee  -a slapd.conf.temp
include /etc/openldap/schema/collective.schema

include /etc/openldap/schema/dyngroup.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/java.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/misc.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/openldap.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/pmi.schema
include /etc/openldap/schema/ppolicy.schema
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cp /usr/share/doc/sudo-1.8.6p7/schema.OpenLDAP /etc/openldap/schema/sudo.schema
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# echo "include /etc/openldap/schema/sudo.schema" | tee  -a slapd.conf.temp
</cli>

==== Add suffix and login information ====

<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# slappasswd
New password:
Re-enter new password:
{SSHA}GtG8bcLGeN/rf1iStKFK2pu0C2EZf/RX
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cat >> slapd.conf.temp << EOF

pidfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.pid
argsfile /var/run/openldap/slapd.args
EOF
</cli>

==== Add access restrictions parameters ====

<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cat >> slapd.conf.temp << EOF
# All access directives until the next ^database keyword will end up in the

</cli>

===== Test your config file =====

<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# slaptest -uf slapd.conf.temp
543f7cde /etc/openldap/schema/collective.schema: line 65 attributeType: AttributeType not found: "l"
slaptest: bad configuration file!

As the config is not successful, we have to reorder the lines like this:
<code>

Now the test is successful:
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# slaptest -uf slapd.conf.temp
config file testing succeeded
</cli>

===== Create the new configuration files for OpenLDAP 2.4 =====

===== Prepare your configuration files =====

Cleanup /etc/openldap/slapd.d, and move your new config files:
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# mv /etc/openldap/slapd.d /etc/openldap/slapd.d.unused
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# mkdir /etc/openldap/slapd.d

[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cp -rp cn\=config* /etc/openldap/slapd.d
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# chown -R ldap:ldap /etc/openldap/slapd.d
</cli>

Prepare the DB config file:
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cp /usr/share/openldap-servers/DB_CONFIG.example /var/lib/ldap/DB_CONFIG  # (cp `rpm -ql openldap-servers | grep DB_CONFIG` /var/lib/ldap/DB_CONFIG)
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# chown ldap:ldap /var/lib/ldap
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# chmod 700 /var/lib/ldap
</cli>

Modif the /etc/sysconfig/slapd
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# vi /etc/sysconfig/slapd

# OpenLDAP server configuration
# see 'man slapd' for additional information

# Where the server will run (-h option)
# - ldapi:/// is required for on-the-fly configuration using client tools
#   (use SASL with EXTERNAL mechanism for authentication)
# - default: ldapi:/// ldap:///
# - example: ldapi:/// ldap://127.0.0.1/ ldap://10.0.0.1:1389/ ldaps:///
SLAPD_URLS="ldapi:/// ldap:///"

# Any custom options: /usr/sbin/slapd -h
SLAPD_OPTIONS="-4 -d 2"

# Run slapd with -h "... ldap:/// ..."
#   yes/no, default: yes
SLAPD_LDAP=yes

# Run slapd with -h "... ldapi:/// ..."
#   yes/no, default: yes
SLAPD_LDAPI=yes

# Run slapd with -h "... ldaps:/// ..."
#   yes/no, default: no

# Maximum allowed time to wait for slapd shutdown on 'service ldap stop' (in seconds)
SLAPD_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT=15

# Keytab location for GSSAPI Kerberos authentication
#KRB5_KTNAME="FILE:/etc/openldap/ldap.keytab"
</cli>

===== Add logs for slapd process =====

Add the following lines after RULES in /etc/rsyslog.conf
<code>
#### RULES ####

# Send slapd(8c) logs to /var/log/slapd.log
if $programname == 'slapd' then /var/log/slapd.log
& ~
</code>

And restart rsyslog service:
  systemctl restart rsyslog

Add an entry in logrotate:
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# cat >> /etc/logrotate.d/slapd << EOF
# /etc/logrotate.d/slapd
#
# Rotate slapd(8) log file.

/var/log/slapd.log {
 rotate 7
 compress
}

EOF
</cli>

===== Start LDAP server in debug mode =====

Start manually:
<cli prompt='#'>
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# slapd -d 16383
.....
[root@lopenldap1 ldap]# netstat -an | grep LIST
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:389             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

</cli>

Or start using services:
<cli prompt='#'>

Now it works

===== Check slapd starting options =====

Test the start options from /etc/sysconfig/slapd file:
Ex: \\
  /usr/sbin/slapd -u ldap -h "ldapi:/// ldap:///" -4 -d 2

===== Trace the slapd process =====

  strace -f /etc/rc.d/init.d/slapd start >& /tmp/slapd.trace

===== Error in config file =====

During config file generation, my file /etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={1}bdb.ldif has a bad format:
<code>
# AUTO-GENERATED FILE - DO NOT EDIT!! Use ldapmodify.
# CRC32 1580b7b9
dn: olcDatabase={1}bdb
objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig
objectClass: olcBdbConfig
olcDatabase: {1}bdb
olcSuffix: dc=mydomain,dc=org
olcAccess: {0}to *  by dn.base="gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=externa

olcAccess: {1}to attrs=userPassword  by self write  by * auth
olcAccess: {2}to dn.base="dc=mydomain,dc=org"  by * search  by * none
olcAddContentAcl: FALSE
</code>

But after modifying file manually, I've a checksum error
