• Updated Mozilla LDAP C SDK and LDAP commands
This release of LDAP-UX Client Services updates the Mozilla LDAP C SDK to
version 5.14.1. It also updates the LDAP commands ldapsearch, ldapmodify,
ldapcmp, and ldapcompare.
• Support for Windows 2003 and SFU 3.5
LDAP-UX Client Services B.04.00 has been enhanced to support Window 2003
Active Directory Server and Services for Unix (SFU) 3.5. To improve support for
multiple domains, the configuration profile has been moved from
cn=Configuration,... to cn=System,...
• Support for SSL for profile download
Prior to LDAP-UX Client Services B.04.00, SSL support in LDAP-UX was limited to
user authentication (libpam_ldap) and the name service subsystem (libnss_ldap).
With this release, SSL is now supported for secure download of the configuration
profile. SSL support of profile download can assure that the LDAP directory server
hosting the LDAP-UX configuration can not be impersonated.
• Enhancement of netgroup case insensitivity
A new configuration option has been added to ldapux_client.conf that allows the
innetgr() function to do case-insensitive comparisons of user names. By default,
this option is disabled.
• LDAP printer configurator support for lpadmin options
The LDAP printer configurator now supports the ability for the administrator to
specify default lpadmin options. These lpadmin options can be used when adding
printers to LDAP.
