Pre
---

Install slapd and ldap-utils:

	sudo aptitude install slapd ldap-utils

It will ask for eg. domain, password.
If your domain is `example.net`, your basedn will be `dc=example,dc=net`.
If you want to use an other basedn, for example `o=example,c=de`,
debian/ubuntu will not provide any way to do that.

Thats because while these steps your database will be lost and you can choose your basedn.

Add your basedn to file `basedn`:

	echo dc=example,dc=net > basedn

Init
----

Usefull defaults for security (better Passwordhashes):

	ldapmodify -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL -f 10.acls.ldif
	ldapmodify -H ldapi:// -Y EXTERNAL -f 20.passwordhash.ldif

BaseDN
------

These steps will erase your database.
If you do not want to change your BaseDN, skip this step.

The next step will print your new password on STDERR, so note it.
You can change it any time.

	./00.suffix.ldif.sh | sudo ldapmodify -H ldapi:// -Y external
	./30.root.ldif.sh | sudo -u openldap -i slapadd -vb `cat basedn`

Clientconfig
------------

Some lines should be added to `/etc/ldap/ldap.conf`.
These would set defaults, so you could omit `-H ldapi://` and `-b $DN`.

	cat >> /etc/ldap/ldap.conf <<EOF
	BASE    `cat basedn`
	URI     ldapi://
	EOF

Add an user
-----------

For adding an user run:

	./90.user.ldif.sh "$username" "$givenname" "$surname" "$emailaddr" | ldapadd -H ldapi:// -Y external

It will print the password on STDERR.

The DN will be `uid=$username,ou=People,$basedn`.

Changing Passwords
------------------

For changing password use:

	ldappasswd -xSWD $yourdn

If you forgot your password, the administator can change the password via:

	./99.passwordrecovery.ldif.sh $yourdn| sudo ldapmodify -H ldapi:// -Y external
