10.2, just with NetInfo users. I was hoping to not have to install UW-IMAP. By the way, I’ve basically given up on this. The way to go is to upgrade to Panther Server, IMHO.

That munging of usernames is actually when you have multiple users logging in via MD5. Example, I have jason and mailadmin accounts on my PowerBook both IMAP, both MD5. I see jasondmin attempting to login. It’s actually COMBINING the usernames. Good to know Apple has acknowledged it though.

same problems here without SCSI….

By the way … I am attempting to set up the racoon senario but as I add those spdadd entries I am then unable to SSH out and my SSH session to another hosts dies.

[Anonymous]

I could possibly know the IP address from whence I am coming.

You have articles on racoon, host to host, OSX to 3rd party firewall and network to network using 2 OSX boxes as gateways.

What I really want is host to network.

I was about to try the ‘network to network’ setup until I read u reply about knowing your IP address. Is it also the case for the racoon setup? If so … can I not first SSH to the remote gateway, add my local IP, restart the racoon service and then connect by VPN.

I’m gonna try this while I await a reply.

Again .. the setup is OSX jag on a gateway box. The box does firewall and NAT for internal network. Using my OS X jag iBook I wanna VPN to it from multiple places. …. thanx

It seems that Postfix installed in Panther Server is not compiled with the approriate options to support MySQL as a back-end.

Any idea to make it work without compiling from sources ?

Are you using Panther ? If yes, see [url]https://www.afp548.com/eBBS/viewtopic.php?t=915[/url]

Being new to AD and Kerberos I am not exactly sure what this means:
“- If you have an empty root in your AD domain, use the ROOT for the Kerberos Realm”.

[Anonymous]

I had the exact same problems with the AD integration. The problem was that OS X can see the users fine via LDAP/AD but when a windows user accesses the shares, OS X must be capable of seeing the Kerberos Tokens and compairing them to the LDAP users and groups. Here are a few hints:

– If you have an empty root in your AD domain, use the ROOT for the Kerberos Realm
– Make sure you have a user called ‘root’ in your active directory domain with the same password as the root (administrator) user on the OS X Box
– from terminal you need to type “kinit root” to establish the inital kerberos cache

To test if kerberos is working properly type “Klist” from terminal, you should see a list of tokens from your AD realm. If you do not, it is not working properly.

This is just what I think. I am NOT proficient in this area.

If you are like me, you probably installed your mySql with the new packaged installer.

If you did this, the installer is “kind” enough to keep mysql in a compact single location. So to use this you must use the following:

./configure –with-modules=mod_sql:mod_sql_mysql –with-includes=/usr/local/mysql/include –with-libraries=/usr/local/mysql/lib

I tried the configure in the article and the one suggested above, neither worked for me. This one did!

I also used the mod_sql that came with proftpd 1.2.9 (included in 1.2.8+), that worked when the downloaded one didn’t.

I don’t know if it is right, but it did work. If anyone knows why this may be wrong PLEASE let me know, otherwise this is the solution that worked for me.

Hope this helps,

I don’t know the answer, but if you find out please let me know!

I was looking for that exact article on this site.

Thanks in advance,

As Mac Troll mentions, using PAM one option, and the best one for code that you want to port to/from other unix based platforms. A somewhat more “Mac like” way is to use the Directory Services APIs directly. The pdf can be found here:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Networking/Conceptual/Open_Directory/OpenDir.pdf

Look at the documentation for dsDoDirNodeAuth()

Hope this helps

I’m also interested in this. I have a web-based (binary) app with an integrated Apache server, but it doesn’t run under SSL, and uses only htpassword based basic authentication.

I’m hoping I can use Mac OS X Server’s web proxy over SSL to secure this app’s communication, and at the same time, integrate the Password Server’s security mechanism.

If we have to wait until we upgrade to Panther server to integrate the Password Server via authenticated proxy, then that’s cool… it’s not that long, and I’ll have a solid ETA for da bosses.

I need to know, though, if this is possible, or if I’m barking up the wrong tree. Anyone?

Finger’s crossed.

thx,

Thanks Camelot. I’ve been wondering about this for weeks.

I really appreciate your help.

Cheers.
