  2. Yet another reason #OpenLDAP Project only uses github as a read-only mirror of our own repo...

    github.com/orgs/community/disc

  3. #OpenLDAP 2.7.0 including #LMDB 1.0.1 now available for download.

    OpenLDAP 2.6.14 including LMDB 0.9.36 also now available.

    Release notes are still being compiled, will be posted soon. You can check the CHANGES files in the source tree if you don't want to wait.

  4. OpenLDAP is an impressive piece of software. After a few hurdles i guess we have a stable system with six consumers (8 cpu cores each) serving ~4,000 sssd clients (all Linux, many with frequent binds from automated processes) serving about 3,000 search requests and 150 binds per second (!) All with the CPU load leaving enough headroom to be able to take a consumer offline for patching, rebooting, maintenance, etc.

  5. Achso! Es gibt also einen riesen Unterschied zwischen #OpenLDAP und #CiviCRM Da wird wieder eine neue Sau durchs Internet getrieben.
    Bitte keine Aufklärung von den Superschlauen !

  6. contrary to what some people may say, the dynlist overlay as a replacement for memberof may have a significant performance impact esp. if you are using more complex ACLs. Cost us days of poking at slapd to find this.

  7. 🎊 LTB Service Desk 0.9 released!

    ℹ️ LDAP Tool Box Service Desk is a web application for administrators and support teams. It allows to browse and manage (create/modify/delete) accounts in an LDAP directory, manage group membership, view and update their password and security status.

    🆕 Main changes: authentication system, group membership, account creation branch, new design

  8. Query Operation in Trader Service: #LDAP Directory versus Database

    an experiment is conducted to distinguish the performance result gained from a trading service which uses LDAP with a trading service that uses relational database as its backend storage. From the outcome of the experiment conducted, we verified that a trading service that use LDAP provide a better performance as compared to a trading service that relational database.

  9. The new @codeenigma #Drupal based portal for managing #OpenLDAP directories on the web is almost ready for show time. Finished it today, internal testing for a day or two, then LIVE. 🥳

    The stack is an #OpenLDAP directory, #SimpleSAMLphp for #SSO, integrating #LinOTP for MFA and #Drupal for a smart, easy to use web interface. All components are #foss and it's a slick user management experience.

    Huge hat tip to @matason too, who spent many hours getting the vast majority of this over the line. 🫡

  10. If only we had a tech writer to take our development notes and turn them into proper Release Notes. bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi #OpenLDAP

  11. Migrated #OpenLDAP 2.4 running on #FreeBSD to OpenLDAP 2.6 with lloadd on #Linux (Debian 13). So many problems since then. Today I identified an open file limit issue. Fixing that will hopefully finally solve those problems 😞

  12. Donc la formation #openldap celle qui est annulée 9/10 faute de participant est confirmée..

    la formation #ansible sur site à #lyon également confirmée contre toute attente.

    Sachant la proba importante que ces formations ne soient pas maintenues, je m'étais positionnée sur une 3eme sur #ansible , également confirmée.

    + les cours ...

    13 jours de juin consacrées à la formation / cours. Mon compte en banque va adorer, mon 🧠 beaucoup moins.

  13. Still a long way out for Carolina Codes! in mid-August. Their team is hard at work on the usual boring prep. It's a GREAT small polyglot get together!

  14. The #OpenLDAP 2.7 release branch is now available for testing. It now uses #LMDB 1.0. Both of these are still just release candidates, and not tagged as official release versions yet.

  15. @onepict @netopwibby @mattburgess @sovtechfund @NGIZero @ngi

    Fwiw, the @EUCommission uses #OpenLDAP with support from Symas. They certainly seem to have prioritized support of open source infrastructure, at least.

  16. #OpenLDAP's #SQL backend is about to be deleted, in OpenLDAP 2.7. It has been officially unsupported for a long time, and deprecated as of 2.6. If you still use it for anything, you might want to speak up now if you want it to be preserved. Otherwise it's headed to the great bitbucket in the sky. git.openldap.org/openldap/open

  17. #OpenLDAP received two AI generated bug reports this week, zero vulnerabilities.

  18. That's why my 40+ year career in software engineering has always focused on free software. Because I want to change the world for the better and I want other people to learn from what I've done and carry it even further forward. Just as I learned from computing pioneers who came before me.

    It's why I've focused the last 27 years on making #OpenLDAP the premier directory software in the world, and why I built #LMDB as free software. Because it only makes a difference when it's freely shared.

  19. RE: mastodon.social/@hyc/116577377

    "Web-scale" projects bragged about handling a million users a day. #OpenLDAP was serving a million users per *second*, back in 2015.

    Vibe-coded framework-laden modern projects will never measure up.

  20. When other servers were advertising sub-second response times #OpenLDAP was already delivering microsecond response times. We had to update our libraries to use nanosecond resolution timestamps because we're now delivering sub-microsecond performance. Years ahead of *everyone* else in the computing industry. Anyone claiming a better scaling/performance story than OpenLDAP is outright lying.

    * We broke the microsecond barrier back in 2015: lists.openldap.org/hyperkitty/

  21. "389-DS (Red Hat Directory Server) is the production choice for >1M entries — purpose-built for large directories with a dedicated replication engine" linuxcent.com/tag/openldap/

    Pure BS. #OpenLDAP serves millions of queries per second with DBs with over a billion users. 389DS doesn't even manage 1/10th of that.

    389DS's /RedHatDS's underlying tech was so outdated they had to abandon it all and adopt OpenLDAP's libraries just to stay functional. Their core server is still garbage even with that.

  22. Yes, I'm late to the party, I know. But right now, I feel like a king: I have created my first usable container image from scratch and published both the source and resulting image on my own Forgejo server 😎

    From now on, I can install a complete OpenLDAP server with only one command. This is only version 0.0.1 and needs more work to be useful for others, but it's a foundation on which I can build. Next step is to create my own schema file, because why not. I have special needs, so to speak 😏

    This LDAP server will be the source of truth for the Authentik server that follows, and the set of containers that will form a complete e-mail environment with all bells and whistles you can think of, and let's not forget Nextcloud, PowerDNS and Hubzilla.

    It's almost time to say goodbye to my old server that has all software manually installed, and move to a modern setup where everything comes in its own container(s) and automatically plugs itself into Træfik, my reverse proxy.

    I'm a happy self-hoster 😎

  23. Symas will be at Carolina Codes! in August. A second talk on COBOL #cobol #cobolworx and a talk on #openldap. This is a nice regional conference in lovely Greenville, SC.
