From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: I'm trying to use system-config-users to create new users/groups in an LDAP directory. I can successfully view a test user created manually on the LDAP server; but on trying to create a new one I get this: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libuser-0.51.7-7.1.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up LDAP server, populate it with root DN, plus people and groups entries (non-trivial task) 2. Set up /etc/libuser.conf so that the LDAP stanza points at the LDAP server 3. Run system-config-users and try to create a new user Actual Results: New user is created Expected Results: Fails to do anything, get this output: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-users/userWindow.py", line 358, in on_userWin_ok_button_clicked self.parent.ADMIN.addUser(userEnt) RuntimeError: error modifying LDAP directory entry: Invalid syntax Additional info:
Nalin: do you have any idea on when/if this is likely to be fixed?
I'm working on LDAP right now, I hope to have a complete and reliable backend within a month (a very conservative estimate).
libuser-0.52.1-1 should have a good-working LDAP backend.
