Directory Server#
In this section you can find directions and suggestions to deal with issues arising from the Directory Server.
Update Credentials#
In all cases when it is advisable to change the password of the Directory Server, follow the steps in the procedure described here.
Note
The procedure requires CLI access; all the commands must be
executed as the zextras user.
Update Password on Master Directory Server#
We start by defining a robust password
zextras$ export newLdapPsw="aGoodPassword"
Then change all the Directory Server passwords.
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -r $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -p $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -b $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -l $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -n $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd -a $newLdapPsw
zextras$ /opt/zextras/bin/zmldappasswd $newLdapPsw
Restart the services.
zextras$ zmcontrol restart
Finally, remove the saved password:
zextras$ unset newLdapPsw
Align all Other Nodes#
Define the password, which must be the same as the one on the Master Directory Server:
zextras$ export newLdapPsw="aGoodPassword"
Then change all the Directory Server passwords.
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e ldap_amavis_password=$newLdapPsw
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e ldap_bes_searcher_password=$newLdapPsw
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e ldap_nginx_password=$newLdapPsw
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e ldap_postfix_password=$newLdapPsw
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e ldap_replication_password=$newLdapPsw
zextras$ zmlocalconfig -f -e zimbra_ldap_password=$newLdapPsw
Restart the services.
zextras$ zmcontrol restart
Finally, remove the saved password:
zextras$ unset newLdapPsw
