NISLDAPmapping(4) File Formats NISLDAPmapping(4)NAMENISLDAPmapping - mapping file used by the NIS server components
SYNOPSIS
/var/yp/NISLDAPmapping
DESCRIPTION
The NISLDAPmapping file specifies the mapping between NIS map entries
and equivalent Directory Information Tree (DIT) entries.
The presence of /var/yp/NISLDAPmapping on a NIS master server causes
that server to obtain NIS data from LDAP. See ypserv(4). If
/var/yp/NISLDAPmapping is present but the connection configuration file
that is defined in /etc/default/ypserv cannot be found, a warning is
logged. See ypserv(1M).
NIS slave servers always obtain their data from a NIS master server,
whether or not that server is getting data from LDAP, and ignore the
/var/yp/NISLDAPmapping file.
A simple NISLDAPmapping file is created using inityp2l(1M). You can
customize your NISLDAPmapping file as you require.
Each attribute defined below can be specified in/var/yp/NISLDAPmap‐
pingLDAP or as an LDAP attribute. If both are specified, then the
attribute in /var/yp/NISLDAPmapping (including empty values) takes
precedence.
A continuation is indicated by a '\' (backslash) in the last position,
immediately before the newline of a line. Characters are escaped, that
is, exempted from special interpretation, when preceeded by a backslash
character.
The '#' (hash) character starts a comment. White space is either ASCII
space or a horizontal tab. In general, lines consist of optional white
space, an attribute name, at least one white space character, and an
attribute value.
EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
File Syntax
Repeated fields, with separator characters, are described by the fol‐
lowing syntax:
One or more entries entry:entry:entry
entry[":"...]
Zero or more entries
[entry":"...]
Attributes
Attributes generally apply to one more more NIS maps. Map names can be
specified either on their own,that is in passwd.byname, in which case
they apply to all domains, or for individual NIS domains, for example,
in passwd.byname,example.sun.uk. Where a map is mentioned in more than
one attribute, both versions are applied. If any parts of the
attributes are in conflict, the domain specific version takes prece‐
dence over the non-domain specific version.
Each domain specific attributes must appear in NISLDAPmapping before
any related non-domain specific attribute. If non-domain specific
attributes appear first, behavior may be unpredictable. Errors are
logged when non-domain specific attributes are found first.
You can associate a group of map names with a databaseId. In effect, a
macro is expanded to the group of names. Use this mechanism where the
same group of names is used in many attributes or where domain specific
map names are used. Then, you can make any changes to the domain name
in one place.
Unless otherwise noted, all elements of the syntaxes below may be sur‐
rounded by white space. Separator characters and white space must be
escaped if they are part of syntactic elements.
The following attributes are recognized.
nisLDAPdomainContext
The context to use for a NIS domain.
The syntax for nisLDAPdomainContext is:
NISDomainName ":" context
The following is an example of the nisLDAPdomainContext attribute:
domain.one : dc=site, dc=company, dc=com
The mapping file should define the context for each domain before
any other attribute makes use of the NISDomainName specified for
that domain.
nisLDAPyppasswddDomains
Lists the domains for which password changes should be made. NIS
password change requests do not specify the domains in which any
given password should be changed. In traditional NIS this informa‐
tion is effectively hard coded in the NIS makefile.
The syntax for the nisLDAPyppasswddDomains attribute is:
domainname
If there are multiple domains, use multiple nisLDAPyppasswddDomain
entries withone domainname per entry.
nisLDAPdatabaseIdMapping
Sets up an alias for a group of NIS map names. There is no default
value.
The syntax for the nisLDAPdatabaseIdMapping attribute is:
databaseId ":" ["["indexlist"]"] mapname[" "...]
where
databaseId = Label identifying a (subset of a) NIS
object for mapping purposes.
indexlist = fieldspec[","...]
fieldspec = fieldname "=" fieldvalue
fieldname = The name of a entry field as defined in
nisLDAPnameFields.
fieldvalue = fieldvaluestring | \" fieldvaluestring \"
indexlist is used for those cases where it is necessary to select a
subset of entries from a NIS map. The subset are those NIS entries
that match the indexlist. If there are multiple specifications
indexed for a particular NIS map, they are tried in the order
retrieved until one matches. Note that retrieval order usually is
unspecified for multi-valued LDAP attributes. Hence, if using
indexed specifications when nisLDAPdatabaseIdMapping is retrieved
from LDAP, make sure that the subset match is unambiguous.
If the fieldvaluestring contains white space or commas, it must
either be surrounded by double quotes, or the special characters
must be escaped. Wildcards are allowed in the fieldvaluestring. See
Wildcards
To associate the passwd.byname and passwd.byuid maps with the
passwd databaseId:
passwd:passwd.byname passwd.byuid
The passwd and passwd.adjunct databaseIds receive special handling.
In addition to its normal usage, passwd defines which maps yppass‐
wdd is to update when a passwd is changed. In addition to its nor‐
mal usage passwd.adjunct defines which maps yppasswdd is to update
when an adjunct passwd is changed.
You may not alias a single map name to a different name, as the
results are unpredictable.
nisLDAPentryTtl
Establish TTLs for NIS entries derived from LDAP.
The syntax for the nisLDAPentryTtl attribute is:
mapName[" "...]":"
initialTTLlo ":" initialTTLhi ":" runningTTL
where
initialTTLlo The lower limit for the initial TTL (in seconds)
for data read from LDAP when the ypserv starts. If
the initialTTLhi also is specified, the actual ini‐
tialTTL will be randomly selected from the interval
initialTTLlo to initialTTLhi , inclusive. Leaving
the field empty yields the default value of 1800
seconds.
initialTTLhi The upper limit for the initial TTL. If left empty,
defaults to 5400.
runningTTL The TTL (in seconds) for data retrieved from LDAP
while the ypserv is running. Leave the field empty
to obtain the default value of 3600 seconds.
If there is no specification of TTLs for a particular map, the
default values are used.
If the initialTTLlo and initialTTLhi have the same value, the
effect will be that all data known to the ypserv at startup times
out at the same time. Depending on NIS data lookup patterns, this
could cause spikes in ypserv-to-LDAP traffic. In order to avoid
that, you can specify different initialTTLlo and initialTTLhi val‐
ues, and obtain a spread in initial TTLs.
The following is an example of the nisLDAPentryTtl attribute used
to specify that entries in the NIS host maps read from LDAP should
be valid for four hours. When ypserv restarts, the disk database
entries are valid for between two and three hours.
hosts.byname hosts.byaddr:7200:10800:14400
nisLDAPobjectDN
Specifies the connection between a group of NIS maps and the LDAP
directory. This attribute also defines the 'order' of the NIS maps.
When NIS maps are bulk copied to or from the DIT, they are pro‐
cessed in the same order as related nisLDAPobjectDN attributes
appear in /var/yp/NISLDAPmapping.
The syntax for the nisLDAPobjectDN attribute is:
mapName[" "...] ":" objectDN *( ";" objectDN )
where
objectDN = readObjectSpec [":"[writeObjectSpec]]
readObjectSpec = [baseAndScope [filterAttrValList]]
writeObjectSpec = [baseAndScope [attrValList]]
baseAndScope = [baseDN] ["?" [scope]]
filterAttrValList = ["?" [filter | attrValList]]]
scope = "base" | "one" | "sub"
attrValList = attribute "=" value
*("," attribute "=" value)
The baseDN defaults to the value of the nisLDAPdomainContext
attribute for the accessed domain. If the baseDN ends in a comma,
the nisLDAPdomainContext value is appended.
scope defaults to one. scope has no meaning and is ignored in a
writeObjectSpec.
The filter is an LDAP search filter and has no default value.
The attrValList is a list of attribute and value pairs. There is no
default value.
As a convenience, if an attrValList is specified in a readObject‐
Spec, it is converted to a search filter by ANDing together the
attributes and the values. For example, the attribute and value
list:
objectClass=posixAccount,objectClass=shadowAccount
is converted to the filter:
(&(objectClass=posixAccount)\
(objectClass=shadowAccount))
Map entries are mapped by means of the relevant mapping rules in
the nisLDAPnameFields and nisLDAPattributeFromField .
If a writeObjectSpec is omitted, the effect is one of the follow‐
ing:
o If there is no trailing colon after the readObjectSpec,
then there is no write at all.
o If there is a colon after the readObjectSpec, then
writeObjectSpec equals readObjectSpec.
The following is an example of a nisLDAPobjectDN attribute declara‐
tion that gets the hosts.byaddr map entries from the ou=Hosts con‐
tainer under the default search base and writes to the same place.
hosts.byaddr:ou=Hosts,?one?objectClass=ipHost:
The following is an example of a nisLDAPobjectDN attribute declara‐
tion that obtains passwd map entries from the ou=People containers
under the default search base, and also from dc=another,dc=domain.
passwd:ou=People,?one?\
objectClass=shadowAccount,\
objectClass=posixAccount:;\
ou=People,dc=another,dc=domain,?one?\
objectClass=shadowAccount,\
objectClass=posixAccount
nisLDAPnameFields
Specifies the content of entries in a NIS map and how they should
be broken into named fields. nisLDAPnameFields is required, because
NIS maps do not store information in named fields.
The syntax for the nisLDAPnameFields attribute is as follows:
"nisLDAPnameFields" mapName ":" "(" matchspec "," fieldNames ")"
fieldName = nameOrArrayName[","...]
nameOrArrayName = Name of field or 'array' of repeated fields.
matchspec = \" formatString \"
formatString may contains a list of %s and %a elements each of
which represents a single named field or a list of repeated fields.
A %a field is interpreted as an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address in
preferred format. If an IPv6 address in non preferred format is
found, then it is converted and a warning is logged.
Where there are a list of repeated fields, the entire list is
stored as one entry. The fields are broken up into individual
entries, based on the internal separator, at a latter stage. Other
characters represent separators which must be present. Any separa‐
tor, including whitespace, specified by the formatString, may be
surrounded by a number of whitespace and tab characters. The white‐
space and tab characters are ignored.
Regardless of the content of this entry some fieldNames are
reserved:
rf_key The DBM key value
rf_ipkey The DBM key value handled as an IP address. See
the discussion of %a fields.
rf_comment Everything following the first occurance of a
symbol. rf_comment is defined by nisLDAPcom‐
mentChar.
rf_domain The name of the domain in which the current NIS
operation is being carried out.
rf_searchipkey The rf_searchkey value handled as an IP address.
See the discussion of %a fields above.
rf_searchkey See the description under nisLDAPattributeFrom‐
Field below.
For example, the rpc.bynumber map has the format:
name number alias[" "...]
The NIS to LDAP system is instructed to break it into a name, a
number, and an array of alias field by the following entry in the
mapping file:
nisLDAPnameFields rpc.bynumber : \
"%s %s %s", name,number,aliases)
nisLDAPsplitFields
Defines how a field, or list of fields, named by nisLDAPnameFields
is split into subfields. The original field is compared with each
line of this attribute until one matches. When a match is found
named subfields are generated. In latter operations subfield names
can be used in the same way as other field names.
The syntax for the nisLDAPsplitFields attribute is as follows:
"nisLDAPsplitFields" fieldName ":" splitSpec[","...]
splitSpec = "(" matchspec "," subFieldNames ")"
fieldName = Name of a field from nisLDAPnameFields
subFieldNames = subFieldname[","...]
matchspec = \" formatString \"
The netgroup memberTriples can have format (host, user, domain) or
groupname. The format is specified by the attribute:
nisLDAPsplitField memberTriple: \
("(%s,%s,%s)", host, user, domain) , \
("%s", group)
Later operations can then use field names host, user, domain, group
or memberTriple. Because lines are processed in order, if host,
user and domain are found, group will not be generated.
Several maps and databaseIds may contain fields that are to be
split in the same way. As a consequence, the names of fields to be
split must be unique across all maps and databaseIds.
Only one level of spliting is supported.That is, a subfield cannot
be split into further subfields.
nisLDAPrepeatedFieldSeparators
Where there is a list of repeated, splitable fields, nisLDAPrepeat‐
edFieldSeparators specifies which characters separate instances of
the splitable field.
The syntax for the nisLDAPrepeatedFieldSeparators attribute is as
follows:
"nisLDAPrepeatedFieldSeparators" fieldName \"sepChar[...]\"
sepChar = A separator character.
The default value is space or tab. If repeated splitable fields are
adjacent, that is, there is no separating character, then the fol‐
lowing should be specified:
nisLDAPrepeatedFieldSeparators netIdEntry: ""
nisLDAPcommentChar
Specifies which character represents the start of the special com‐
ment field in a given NIS map. If this attribute is not present
then the default comment character # is used.
To specify that a map uses a asterix to mark the start of comments.
nisLDAPcommentChar mapname : '*'
If a map cannot contain comments, then the following attribute
should be specified.
nisLDAPcommentChar mapname : ''
nisLDAPmapFlags
Indicates if YP_INTERDOMAIN or YP_SECURE entries should be created
in a map. Using nisLDAPmapFlags is equivalent to running
makedbm(1M) with the -b or the -s option. When a map is created
from the contents of the DIT, the mapping file attribute is the
only source for the YP_INTERDOMAIN or YP_SECURE entries.
The syntax for the nisLDAPmapFlags attribute is as follows:
"nisLDAPmapFlags" mapname ":" ["b"]["s"]
By default neither entry is created.
nisLDAPfieldFromAttribute
Specifies how a NIS entries field values are derived from LDAP
attribute values.
The syntax for the nisLDAPfieldFromAttribute attribute is as fol‐
lows:
mapName ":" fieldattrspec *("," fieldattrspec)
The format of fieldattrspec is shown below at Field and Attribute
Conversion Syntax.
To map by direct copy and assignment the value of the ipHostNumber
attribute to the addr named field, for example:
addr=ipHostNumber
Formats for the named field and attribute conversion syntax are
discussed below, including examples of complex attribute to field
conversions.
nisLDAPattributeFromField
Specifies how an LDAP attribute value is derived from a NIS entriy
field value.
The syntax for the nisLDAPattributeFromField attribute is as fol‐
lows:
mapName ":" fieldattrspec *("," fieldattrspec )
The format of fieldattrspec is shown below at Field and Attribute
Conversion Syntax.
As a special case, if the dn attribute value derived from a field‐
attrspec ends in a comma (","), the domains context from nisLDAPdo‐
mainContext is appended.
Use the following example to map the value of the addr field to the
ipHostNumber attribute by direct copy and assignment:
ipHostNumber=addr
All relevant attributes, including the dn, must be specified.
For every map it must be possible to rapidly find a DIT entry based
on its key. There are some maps for which a NIS to LDAP mapping for
the key is not desirable, so a key mapping cannot be specified. In
these cases a mapping that uses the reserved rf_searchkey must be
specified. Mappings that use this field name are ignored when
information is mapped into the DIT.
Field and Attribute Conversion Syntax
The general format of a fieldattrspec is:
fieldattrspec = lhs "=" rhs
lhs = lval | namespeclist
rhs = rval | [namespec]
namespeclist = namespec | "(" namespec *("," namespec) ")"
The lval and rval syntax are defined below at Values. The format of a
namespec is:
namespec
["ldap:"] attrspec [searchTriple] | ["yp:"] fieldname
[mapspec]
fieldname
field | "(" field ")"
attrspec
attribute | "(" attribute ")"
searchTriple
":" [baseDN] ["?" [scope] ["?" [filter]]]
baseDN Base DN for search
filter LDAP search filter
mapspec Map name
The repository specification in a namespec defaults is as follows:
o For assignments to a field:
on the LHS yp
on the RHS ldap
NIS field values on the RHS are those that exist before the NIS
entry is modified.
o For assignments to an attribute:
on the LHS ldap
on the RHS yp
Attribute values on the RHS are those that exist before the LDAP
entry is modified.
When the field or attribute name is enclosed in parenthesis, it denotes
a list of field or attribute values. For attributes, the meaning is the
list of all attributes of that name, and the interpretation depends on
the context. See the discussion at Values. The list specification is
ignored when a searchTriple or mapspec is supplied.
For fields, the fieldname syntax is used to map multiple attribute
instances to multiple NIS entries.
The searchTriple can be used to specify an attribute from a location
other than the read or write target. The defaultvalues are as follows:
baseDN If baseDN is omitted, the default is the current objectDN. If
the baseDN ends in a comma, the context of the domain is
appended from nisLDAPdomainContext .
scope one
filter Empty
Similarly, the mapspec can be used to specify a field value from a NIS
map other than the one implicitly indicated by the mapName. If
searchTriple or mapspec is explicitly specified in a namespec, the
retrieval or assignment, whether from or to LDAP or NIS, is performed
without checking if read and write are enabled for the LDAP container
or NIS map.
The ommision of the namespec in an rhs is only allowed if the lhs is
one or more attributes. The effect is to delete the specified
attribute(s). In all other situations, an omitted namespec means that
the rule is ignored.
The filter can be a value. See Values. For example, to find the ipHost‐
Numberthat uses the cn, you specify the following in the filter field:
ldap:ipHostNumber:?one?("cn=%s", (cname, "%s.*"))
In order to remove ambiguity, the unmodified value of a single field or
attribute must be specified as the following when used in the filter
field.
("%s", namespec)
If the filter is not specified, the scope will be base, and the baseDN
is assumed to be the DN of the entry that contains the attribute to be
retrieved or modified. To use previously existing field or attribute
values in the mapping rules requires a lookup to find those values.
Obviously, this adds to the time required to perform the modification.
Also, there is a window between the time when a value is retrieved and
then slightly later stored back. If the values have changed in the mean
time, the change may be overwritten.
When fieldattrspecs are grouped into rule sets, in the value of a
nisLDAPfieldFromAttribute or nisLDAPattributeFromField attribute, the
evaluation of the fieldattrspecs proceed in the listed order. However,
evaluation may be done in parallel for multiple fieldattrspecs. If
there is an error when evaluating a certain fieldattrspec, including
retrieval or assignment of entry or field values, the extent to which
the other fieldattrspec rules are evaluated is unspecified.
Wildcards
Where wildcard support is available, it is of the following limited
form:
* Matches any number of characters
[x] Matches the character x
[x-y] Matches any character in the range x to y, inclusive
Combinations such as [a-cA-C0123] are also allowed, which would match
any one of a, b, c, A, B, C, 0, 1, 2, or 3.
Substring Extraction
substringextract = "(" namespec "," matchspec ")"
name = field or attribute name
matchspec =
The matchspec is a string like the sscanf(3C) format string, except
that there may be at most one format specifier, a single %s. The output
value of the substringextract is the substring that matches the loca‐
tion of the %s.
If there is no %s in the formatstring, it must instead be a single
character, which is assumed to be a field separator for the namespec.
The output values are the field values. Wild cards are supported. If
there is no match, the output value is the empty string, " ".
For example, if the fieldcname has the value user.some.domain.name.,
the value of the expression:
(cname, "%s.*")
is user, which can be used to extract the user name from a NIS princi‐
pal name.
Similarly, use this expression to extract the third of the colon-sepa‐
rated fields of the shadow field:
(shadow, "*:*:%s:*")
This form can be used to extract all of the shadow fields. However, a
simpler way to specify that special case is:
(shadow, ":")
Values
lval = "(" formatspec "," namespec *("," namespec) ")"
rval = "(" formatspec ["," namelist ["," elide] ] ")"
namelist = name_or_sse *( "," name_or_sse)
name_or_sse = namespec | removespec | substringextract
removespec = list_or_name "-" namespec
list_or_name = "(" namespec ")" | namespec
formatspec =
formatstring = A string combining text and % field specifications
elide =
singlechar = Any character
The syntax above is used to produce rval values that incorporate field
or attribute values, in a manner like sprintf(3C), or to perform
assignments to lval like sscanf(3C). One important restriction is that
the format specifications,% plus a single character, use the designa‐
tions from ber_printf(3LDAP). Thus, while %s is used to extract a
string value, %i causes BER conversion from an integer. Formats other
than %s, for instance, %i, are only meaningfully defined in simple for‐
mat strings without any other text.
The following ber_printf() format characters are recognized:
b i n o s
If there are too few format specifiers, the format string may be
repeated as needed.
When used as an lval, there is a combination of pattern matching and
assignment, possibly to multiple fields or attributes.
In an assignment to an attribute, if the value of the addr field is
1.2.3.4, the rval:
("ipNetworkNumber=%s,", addr)
produces the value ipNetworkNumber=1.2.3.4,, while:
("(%s,%s,%s)", host, user, domain)
results in:
(assuming host="xyzzy", user="-", domain="x.y.z")
"(xyzzy,-,x.y.z)"
The elide character feature is used with attribute lists. So:
("%s,", (mgrprfc822mailmember), ",")
concatenates all mgrprfc822mailmember values into one comma-separated
string, and then elides the final trailing comma. Thus, for
mgrprfc822mailmember=usera
mgrprfc822mailmember=userb
mgrprfc822mailmember=userc
the value would be:
usera,userb,userc
As a special case, to combine an LHS extraction with an RHS implicit
list creates multiple entries and values. So
("(%s,%s,%s)", host, user, domain)=(nisNetgroupTriple)
creates one NIS entry for each nisNetgroupTriple value.
The 'removespec' form is used to exclude previously assigned fields
values from a list. So, if an LDAP entry contains:
name: foo
cn: foo
cn: foo1
cn: foo2
and the mapping file specifies :
myName = name, \
myAliases = ("%s ", (cn) - yp:myName, " ")
then the following assignments are carried out:
1. Assign value foo to myName
2. Assign value foo foo1 foo2 to myAliases
3. Remove value of myName from value myAliases
This results in the field values myName is set to foo, and myAliases is
set to foo1 foo2.
Assignments
The assignment syntax, also found at Field and Attribute Conversion
Syntax, is as follows:
fieldattrspec = lhs "=" rhs
lhs = lval | namespeclist
rhs = rval | namespec
namespeclist = namespec | "(" namespec *("," namespec) ")"
The general form of a simple assignment, which is a one-to-one mapping
of field to attribute, is:
("%s", fieldname)=("%s", attrname)
As a convenient shorthand, this can also be written as:
fieldname=attrname
A list specification, which is a name enclosed in parenthesis, can be
used to make many-to-many assignments. The expression:
(fieldname)=(attrname)
where there are multiple instances of attrname, creates one NIS entry
for each such instance, differentiated by their fieldname values. The
following combinations of lists are allowed, but they are not particu‐
larly useful:
(attrname)=(fieldname) Equivalent to attrname=fieldname
attrname=(fieldname) Equivalent to attrname=fieldname
(fieldname)=attrname Equivalent to fieldname=attrname
fieldname=(attrname) Equivalent to fieldname=attrname
If a multi-valued RHS is assigned to a single-valued LHS, the LHS value
will be the first of the RHS values. If the RHS is an attribute list,
the first attribute is the first one returned by the LDAP server when
queried. Otherwise, the definition of "first"is implementation depen‐
dent.
Finally, the LHS can be an explicit list of fields or attributes, such
as:
(name1,name2,name3)
If the RHS is single-valued, this assigns the RHS value to all entities
in the list. If the RHS is multi-valued, the first value is assigned to
the first entity of the list, the second value to the second entity,
and so on. Excess values or entities are silently ignored.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Assigning an Attribute Value to a Field
The following example illustrates how to assign the value of the
ipHostNumber attribute to the addr field
addr=ipHostNumber
Example 2 Creating Multiple NIS Entries from Multi-Valued LDAP
Attributes
An LDAP entry with:
cn=name1
cn=name2
cn=name3
and the following assignments:
cname=cn
(name)=(cn)
creates three NIS entries. Other attributes and fields are omitted for
clarity.
cname=name1, name=name1
cname=name1, name=name2
cname=name1, name=name3
Example 3 Assigning String Constants
The following expression sets the passwd field to x:
passwd=("x")
Example 4 Splitting Field Values to Multi-Valued Attributes
The expansion field contains a comma-separated list of alias member
names. In the following example, the expression assigns each member
name to an instance of mgrprfc822mailmember:
(mgrprfc822mailmember)=(expansion, ",")
