When testing the ldap connectivity from the database VM to the LDAP server on the intrastructure VM, I’m running the following command:
sudo testsaslauthd -u adam -p password -f /var/run/saslauthd/mux
I get the following
0: NO “authentication failed”
I have failed the homework unfortunately. In the /var/log/auth.log file, i see the following:
Oct 23 16:22:17 database sudo: vagrant : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/run ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/sbin/testsaslauthd -u adam -p password1 -f /var/run/saslauthd/mux
Oct 23 16:22:17 database sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user root by vagrant(uid=0)
Oct 23 16:22:17 database saslauthd[2320]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=adam] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=ldap] [reason=Unknown]
Oct 23 16:22:17 database sudo: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root
Any idea what might be causing the auth failure?
LDAP server is running, saslauth config has been completed as follows:
/etc/saslauthd.conf
LDAP Server IP: infrastructure.m310.mongodb.university
LDAP Search Base: ou=Users,dc=mongodb,dc=com
LDAP Search Filter: (cn=%u)
Permissions have been changed on /var/run/saslauthd
I can ping the inf server from the db server.
