BUG - ldap plugin - can not setup port different from defaul

hello

i am no expert on the topic - simply trying to point something that i believe needs to be fixed.

the LDAP plugin does not accept the addition of a port on its form field like:

<hostname>:<port>

and instead only accepts the hostname as:

<hostname>

this would be fine if the option to enter Extra options would be used to add the port, as below:

port 390

i tried the above but OMV can not connect to Zentyal v3 - as it is now using port 390, instead of 389 (default).

while trailing the syslog, i noticed that connection were being tried against the <hostname> and not <hostname>:<port>

i had a look at the file /etc/ldap/ldap.conf, which contains:

Zitat

BASE dc=zentyal,dc=org
URI <hostname>

there are two things that found odd with this file:
- no sign of the Extra options for port, and
- URI implies that even with the value for port available it would be ignore

i have concluded the above from this page:
http://linux.die.net/man/5/nss_ldap

Zitat

port <port>
Specifies the port to connect to; this option is used with the host option, and is ignored with the uri option.

i hope the above is a valid suggestion.

regards,

thanks for the quick turn around.

would you like me to still raise this on as a bug for documenting purposes?

regards,
