Alias Objects

[Buggy Code]

Hi

I seem to be having trouble adding a alias objects.
Here is the scenario:
I have a posix account entry as

uid=realuser,ou=people,ou=org2,dc=company,dc=com

and want to alias object of the above in a different tree on the same
database;


uid=aliasuser,ou=people,ou=org1,dc=company,dc=com

In phpldapadmin I use a custom template. In the first form it enter the
following
rdn: uid=aliasuser
container: is prefilled with ou=people,ou=org1,dc=company,dc=com
objectclasses: alias

The second form is:
aliasedObjectname: uid=realuser,ou=people,ou=org2,dc=company,dc=com

This fails, I get 0x40 naming violation error.

I cannot not see what I am doing wring here.
I know it worked previously.
Si what I now do i grab the ldif export for an existing alias and change
to what I need and re-import it.  That seems to work.

What am I doing wrong here

Regards,
Gerhard

Can you provide an LDIF of a good aliased object (I dont use them), and
I'll see what is going on...

Hi

Sorry, I  just saw the email amongst a large amount of others....
I use alias objects as I have multiple branches of people and a cvs
server authentication base is set to one which a particular user is not
in - confusing...
For eg,
Some server are locked into ou=org1 and the person is in ou=org2.  I do
not want to exposed these sever to anything but org1 however there are
people in org2 that need access to org1.  So I created a alias object in
org1.  Problem solved.  There probably is a better way of doing this
such as a referral object.

However, I manage to get the alias object working once in phpldapadmin
(could have been an older version, I cannot recall).  I cannot not get
them to work now.

I provide the ldif of the original object and the alias that works -
(with some minor mods to remove names)

Main Entry:

dn: cn=John Smith,ou=people,ou=nz,dc=company,dc=com
givenName: John
sn: Smith
cn: John Smith
uid: jsmith
userPassword:: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
uidNumber: 1470
gidNumber: 50
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
structuralObjectClass: inetOrgPerson
entryUUID: c0a71cc2-a3a7-102c-9802-4313110fec2a
creatorsName: cn=admin,dc=company,dc=com
createTimestamp: 20080421043253Z
homeDirectory: /home/users/jsmith
loginShell: /bin/bash
entryCSN: 20080423025943Z#000000#00#000000
modifiersName: cn=admin,dc=company,dc=com
modifyTimestamp: 20080423025943Z


Working Alias:

dn: uid=jsmith,ou=people,ou=au,dc=company,dc=com
objectClass: alias
objectClass: extensibleObject
objectClass: top
uid: swilson
structuralObjectClass: alias
entryUUID: 72775a32-0427-102c-9401-e39521d974c5
creatorsName: cn=admin,dc=printsoft,dc=com
createTimestamp: 20071001050352Z
aliasedObjectName: uid=jsmith,ou=people,ou=nz,dc=company,dc=com
entryCSN: 20071001050406Z#000000#00#000000
modifiersName: cn=admin,dc=company,,dc=com
modifyTimestamp: 20071001050406Z

The above set works

Gerhard

Hi

Is seems that if I manually create an alias object ldif and add a
extensibleObject class so that I can use a uid attribute, the alias
works.

I fiddled with the add function code in server_fuctions.php to
printout the contents of the array - ie - what phpldapadmin wants to
add using ldapadd function, and found something equivalent to the
following:
dn: uid=alias,ou=tests,dc=testdomain,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: alias
aliasedObjectName: uid=testent,ou=people,dc=testdomain,dc=com

That failed with error 0x40(LDAP_NAMING_VIOLATION)

However I made the following changes
dn: uid=alias,ou=tests,dc=testdomain,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: alias
objectclass: extensibleObject
uid: alias
aliasedObjectName: uid=testent,ou=people,dc=testdomain,dc=com

It works if I imported!
I have just started to look at the phpldapadmin code - Not sure how it
construct the entry array just yet to....

Regards,
Gerhard
