[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#584133: slapd: Fails to lookup client hostname in hosts.allow and rejects connection]

[Peter McGill]

Sorry, I don't believe I received or was aware of the previous responses.

As Ryan has reported it working in the current version, and as I no longer have openldap installed to test with.
I conclude this is resolved and the bug should be closed.

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

The Debian package already enables that option, but it also still has to 
be explicitly enabled in your configuration. Did you do that?

slapd.conf(5) setting:
reverse-lookup on

slapd-config(5) setting:
olcReverseLookup: TRUE

With the slapd package from wheezy and either of those settings applied, 
using a domain in hosts.allow works properly for me.

thanks,
Ryan
