Screenshot About:
Directory administrator is a smart LDAP directory management tool. It can be used to manage UNIX and Samba user accounts and groups in a single sign-on setup, corporate address book information, host-based access control and advanced email routing. It's extremely easy to install and use, yet powerful at the same time.

[»] protocol version 3
by Jsdaav - Dec 21st 2003 04:10:07

Hi

I have been looking at LDAP for about 1day now and downloaded your client because it is the best. But I have one problem maybe it is because I don't know how to work it or something but how do I get your client to use protocol version 3.

Thanx
Jsdaav

    LDAPv3 support was not working previously. I submitted a patch that fixes this, yesterday.

[»] poor security for directory credentials
by xipmix - Oct 24th 2003 22:48:36

This program (at v1.5.1) stores your directory login credentials
in a file with the default permissions of your umask, in my case
0664.

This is not acceptable, on any multiuser machine. The program
should force restrictive permissions on this file, like 0600.
I can't think of a reason why you would want any other person
to have access to these credentials.

I won't be using this software until this is fixed.

In case it matters I was using the debian package,
http://download.cmeerw.net/debian/directory-administrator/binary-i386/directory-administrator_1.5.1-0cmeerw_i386.deb

    Hi there, xipmix. Sorry you got such a scare, but you
    could have checked the permissions in the directory
    (.directory_administrator). It's 700. So there's no
    chance any user with access to your home directory
    can access the passwords and settings file.

[»] Group Memberships
by Ben Stewart - Sep 1st 2003 17:34:07

Greetings,
I have just downloaded the latest and greatest directory admin and it seems that the handling of groups has changed.

When I make a group a users primary group then an entry like this is added to that particular group;
member uid=bstewart,ou=Users,o=waterwerks

When I add a user as a secondary member of a group DA adds
member uid=bstewart,ou=Users,o=waterwers and
memberUID bstewart

Does anybody know why adding a users as a primary member of a group doesnt add the second line, but adding as a secondary users does ?

Thanks
Ben

[»] Nice!
by Brendan Byrd/SineSwiper - Aug 9th 2001 14:28:24

Definately a easy-to-use and handy application for add LDAP users. I don't have to go through all of the gunk with GQ. Instead, I have everything sorted in nice tabs.
