Can't locate lib.pm

Hi all,
i am using netdb-1.12.0-ubuntu-1204LTS-vmware and i upgraded ubuntu to 1404LTS. The netdbctl -ud -v command now gives me an error netdbctl(1404): Can't locate lib.pm: Permission denied at /opt/netdb/netdbscraper/netdbscraper.pl line 75. I tried these commands:

root@netdb:/home/netdbadmin# locate lib.pm

Anyone have an idea how to fix this? Thank you

Device Credentials pointing to external authentication Server

Hi,

Apologies if this question has already been answered but I'd like to know whether device credentials section (from netdb.conf) supports authenticating against external server such as RADIUS, TACACS or LDAP and if so, how to configure it?

Mainly I would like to configure authentication against LDAP instead of local username/password where possible.

Your response is most appreciated.

How have you pointed Netdb authentication into devices towards TACACS?

I was wondering if you have an alternative to storing clear text passwords in netdb.conf file. In todays infrastructure its not idea? Possibly leveraging TACACS auth or a way to encrypt local accounts? Any ideas?

Due to the insecurity of having passwords in plain in netdb.conf, I agree with you Christian and ask the same question?

clear text password in config file

I have Netdb v1.11 that has a password in clear in the config file. Has this been encrypted in later releases?

Hello,
I only recently hit this problem with vanilla version 1.13 on Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE) 3 Cindy. For the record, to resolve this, I changed NetDB.pm parseConfig subroutine to remove the prefix "file:/" from the definition of variable $ouidb on line 3512, which reads now:
$ouidb = $config->ouifile();
