[Freeipa-users] Installing IPA on Solaris 10

[Andy Singleton]

Hi Rob,

Ok ive switched on the compat plugin.
Incidentally, does this need to be done separately for all replicas?

However, when I run ldapclient init <ipa_server>, I get this message:
"Failed to find defaultSearchBase for domain"

Cheers
Andy

/me smacks head

Ok, sorry I didn't see this the first go-round.

The Solaris nss_ldap doesn't use /etc/ldap.conf.

What you want to do is something like:

# ldapclient init ipa.example.com

This should set everything up for you on the Solaris side assuming 
you're running freeIPA 1.2.2.

You'll also need to enable the compat schema on the IPA side by running 
ipa-compat-manage enable and restarting the DS (if you haven't done so 
already).

Note that the Solaris LDAP client assumes that if you want to use LDAP 
for anything then you want to use it for EVERYTHING, so you'll want to 
fix up /etc/nsswitch.conf, at least setting files and ipnodes back to 
dns from ldap.
