Dscl error with auth: Data source (/LDAPv3/myod.mydomain.ch) is not valid

[Kaltezar]

Hello,

I’m trying to use DSCL from a remote client to an OpenDirectory server. The client and the server are in Leopard 10.5.8

I binded the client to the OD using the Apple Directory Utility.

When I try:

dscl /LDAPv3/myod.mydomain.ch -read /Users/a_shortname

everything goes well, I got back all data for the record.

But if I try to add some authentification for, let say, a create:

dscl -p -u diradmin /LDAPv3/myod.mydomain.ch -create /Users/another_shortname

I’m prompted for the password and then:

Data source (/LDAPv3/myod.mydomain.ch) is not valid.

I tried to build up a “myod2.test-domain.ch” with a similar configuration as the production server and everything goes well with the test server.

Does someone has an idea about what I’m missing in the process ? What could make the dscl find the datasource only without authentification stuffes ?

Thanks for any answer.

I’m having the same problem when I try to make any modifications to the OD from a client. Authorization won’t work (-14102, eDSAuthNoAuthServerFound).
There are no problems doing the same thing from the OD master itself.

In other words: bump.

Same problem and error message here.

Data source (/LDAPv3/myod.mydomain.net) is not valid.

Has anyone solved this already?

Solved..

Firewall was blocking certain OD ports.. 😯
