Hello,
I've set up an address book server for my family. The data is stored using OpenLDAP. Each member has a login to view other member's details or change his or her own details.
Beside the LDAP server, I've set up ejabberd (2.0.5) to provide an easy-to-use instant messaging system. The authentification method is LDAP - of course - and is working properly.
Now it would be nice to provide a shared roster folder, with all family contacts inside. I've seen, that there exists a module named "mod_share_roster_ldap" which seems to be exactly what I need. So I downloaded, compiled and installed this module, using this description: http://www.ejabberd.im/node/2872 I guess, up to here everything is okay, though I don't know whether the module is really loaded - How can I test this?
I've tried configuring it, but I'm not quite sure, about the correct setup for my LDAP configuration. The configuration of the module now looks like this:
{mod_shared_roster_ldap, [
{ldap_base, "<basedn>"},
{ldap_groupattr, "ou"},
{ldap_groupdesc, "description"},
{ldap_memberattr, "uid"},
{ldap_memberattr_format, "uid=%u"},
{ldap_memberdesc, "cn"},
{ldap_rfilter, "(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)"}
]},Since I'm also quite new to LDAP, it may be, that I missed something in the setup of the directory tree. All jabber contacts have an entry named like "uid=%u,ou=<group name>,<basedn>", and are of "objectClass=inetOrgPerson". The directory has this structure:
<basedn>
+--> cn=admin # rootdn
|
+-+> ou=ejabberd # special contacts, that are no family book members (e.g. jabber bots)
| +--> uid=bot1 # jabber account entry
|
+-+> ou=people # family members
| +--> uid=mike # an actual family member
| +--> uid=tina
| +--> uid...
|
+-+> ou=special # lesser LDAP-binds (may read, but not write)
+--> cn=ejabberd # contact, which ejabberd uses as rootdnCan anyone tell me, what I have done wrong?
Cheers,
Wolfgang
