Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> AW: OpenLDAP instead of OID
Hi Dennis
We will do some testing for development DBs using openldap on cygwin (very obscure setup, I know). Afterwards, I might have to move the stuff to AD (since the dev site is more of a windows shop). I will have to read some stuff (I'm more of a UNIX person), so it might take a while before I'm actually going to find the time to do this (like September).

Congratulations Stefan!
Thanks for posting this.
Do you (or anyone else) have any ideas for doing this with Micro$oft Active
Directory?

Hi list
Some people where interested in feedback regarding the usage of OpenLDAP instead of OID or Names to resolve TNS strings. Seems to work ;). Here is what to do:
Prerequisite: I used openldap-2.0.23 instead of 2.1, since I had to use CygWin to test it locally on my laptop.
Bill of materials:
CygWin http://www.cygwin.com, I used the latest version, 1.5.2-1test
Oracle Client, version >= 8.1.6.x
OID LDIFS, can be taken from $ORACLE_HOME/ldap/admin, if the OID option is
installed, or from
Oracle Disks:
Disk3\stage\Components\oracle.oid.server\9.2.0.1.0\1\DataFiles\admin.1.1.jar
HowTo: http://home.nc.rr.com/jtlayton/oid2openldap.html
Simply follow the howto to get openldap running and include the OID schemas.
Then, create an ldap.ora under $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin, which looks like this:
DIRECTORY_SERVERS=localhost:389
DIRECTORY_SERVER_TYPE=oid
DEFAULT_ADMIN_CONTEXT="cn=Manager,dc=world"
... and change sqlnet.ora to contain:
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP)
Finished, enjoy.
Stefan
