26 May '22

Hi guys, The Network Map - is there any way to view it as non administrator ? Is there a role that can be used, that will allow this usage ?

hi, When we view the details of a switch (any brand) we can know which port is UP and which is DOWN. It is possible (somehow) to see summary charts for 1 day, 1 month, 1 year. ? without having to enter so many options... port, traffic, then traffic graphics... eg enter the port and there view the graphs of 1 day, 1 month and 1 year.

Unable to email
by Joe Brouillette 19 May '22

19 May '22

I had to redo my Observium installation and at this time I'm unable to receive any alerts. I tried testing postfix and that works: sudo echo "This is the body of the email" | mail -s "This is the subject line" userX(a)domain.com When I try it with Observium I get nothing: userX@Observium2:/opt/observium$ ./test_alert.php -a userx(a)domain.com Observium 22.5.12000 Test Alert Notification userX@Observium2: I've Googled this and I found serveral hits to change the PHP file, but I understood that we shouldn't be "tweaking" that file. Any ideas on what I've missed?

Hi Graeme As I am very new to LDAPS, can you provide every step you’ve did in setting up LDAPS in both your LDAP server & observium host when you verify everything tomorrow? It would be very helpful learning experience for my team and I. 😊 [cid:image003.png@01D865EE.C07BA4A0] Best Regards Valerie Lim

LDAP / LDAPS Authentication with Observium
by Valerie Lim 12 May '22

12 May '22

Hi I am having issue authenticating the members in my group as the error message says that it is unable to get a match of a user in a particular group. Here are some steps I've taken so far: * Changing to $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "server01.domain01.com"; caused an error that LDAP server was unable to bind thus that is why I am using IP address * All my users are already a member of the group that I've specified & the group is also in an OU I've specified in my config.php So, why is Observium unable to get a match of the users even though the specifications are already there? Please advise. Attached is my config.php configuration: // Authentication Model $config['auth_mechanism'] = "ldap"; // default, other options: ldap, http-auth, please se> $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=domain01,dc=com"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "xxxxxxxx"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['dn'] = "distinguishedName"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "person"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "ldap://192.168.1.234"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = TRUE; $config['auth_ldap_bindanonymous'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "CN="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",OU=MVC,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("CN=gtgroup,OU=MVC,DC=domain01,DC=com"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "CN=gtgroup,OU=MVC,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "nodn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['CN=gtgroup,OU=MVC,DC=domain01,DC=com']['level'] = 10; $config['web_debug_unprivileged'] = TRUE; Error message I got when logging in: [cid:image002.jpg@01D865E9.D1ADC000] My group & OU settings: [cid:image005.jpg@01D865E9.D1ADC000] Best Regards Valerie Lim

Project still active?
by Denton, Gregory 12 May '22

12 May '22

Hi Team, First off, thank you for the detailed support of some of the lesser common devices. Next, can you confirm the project is still active in any way? I'm currently in the market for a solution with enterprise level support (internal policy), so before I go to the well for funding, I need to know that Observium is still viable and active for that level of support? </greg>

LDAP / LDAPS Authentication with Observium
by Valerie Lim 12 May '22

12 May '22

Hi Graeme Thanks! Also just want to check with you: 1. Other than getting LDAP to work, did you manage to get LDAPS to work as well? If so, could you provide the every step on how your team did it? 2. What OS & version is both your host Observium & LDAP server running on? 3. For LDAP, other than setting up Observium in the host & LDAP service in the server itself, were there any additional packages / steps you did to make it work?

need for a new support system, email lists are too limiting
by Tony Guadagno 06 May '22

06 May '22

Hi, as the recent 2 questions have shown (ldaps auth and ping only device monitoring) users have the same questions over and over. Currently, this system Observium uses for email lists (imho) is not cutting it. There is no place (that I now of) that we can search for old solutions, the emails don't seem to be archived anywhere. Have you considered switching off this to a discussion board software? I think it would be better for all. Just my 2 cents. tony

Hi I need advice on how to authenticate my LDAP server (Windows Server 2019) with my Observium client (v22.4.11952) which runs on Ubuntu v20.04 Desktop. 1. I've configured LDAPs certificate in my LDAP server as an .pfx file. How do I allow Observium to read the certificate so as to get authenticated by my LDAP server? 1. I've configured LDAP settings in my Observium's config.php file accordingly as advised & installed php module. However, Observium is still unable to authenticate via LDAP. LDAP query between Observium client (Ubuntu) and LDAP server (Windows) is working. So please advice on what additional steps is required on setting up LDAP on regards to both client & server side. 1. Attached is my config.php configuration. // Authentication Model $config['auth_mechanism'] = "ldap"; // default, other options: ldap, http-auth, please s> $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=Administrator,ou=acclivis,dc=domain01,dc=com"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "xxxxxxxxxx"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['dn'] = "distinguishedName"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "user"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "server01.domain01.com"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 636; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = TRUE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "cn="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("cn=grouping,ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "cn=grouping,ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "nondn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['cn=grouping,ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com']['level'] = 10; Best Regards Valerie Lim

LDAPS Authentication Observium
by Valerie Lim 05 May '22

Hi Is there a log file in Observium for me to troubleshoot when I log in via LDAP? I want to verify the LDAP details I've keyed in my config.php is correct as I am still unable to log in via LDAP as per Tony's advice on LDAPS. Please advise if I am missing out any additional steps / packages required to as I am still relatively new to configuring LDAP / LDAPS for Observium. Attached are some information I configured so far: 1. Config.php [cid:image001.jpg@01D86091.7DDD9E30] 1. /etc/ldap/ldap.conf [cid:image002.jpg@01D86091.7DDD9E30] 1. Certificate Information (Configured via Windows LDAP Server) [cid:image003.jpg@01D86091.7DDD9E30][cid:image004.jpg@01D86091.7DDD9E30] 1. Already configured LDAPS on Windows LDAP Server (If require more screenshots to show what settings I've configured, I can provide) 2. Made changes to /opt/observium/config.php accordingly as shown in 1st screenshot 3. Made changes to /etc/ldap/ldap.conf accordingly as shown in 2nd screenshot 4. Did ldapquery sucessfully before configuring LDAPS to ensure Ubuntu host can query to Windows LDAP server. Best Regards Valerie Lim

Ubiquity Serial Numbers / Wireless (WLAN) mac
by Lyndon Labuschagne 27 Apr '22

27 Apr '22

Hi A few years ago we were able to pull the Ubiquiti Radio MAC / Serial numbers from the Observium DB. I no longer see any serial numbers listed for Ubiquiti devices if I query the device table in the DB directly, and it’s not shown on the device screen in the Observium interface. When running a manual poller.php run the serial number field is <empty>, Is there something that changed on the Observium or Ubiquiti side or is the a module that I may need to enable? Any ideas or input would be welcome. Regards Lyndon

You may want to keep sAMAccountName if you want to log in with bare userids instead of UPNs. Not sure if the "dn" line is required or not, I don't remember what that does. Objectclass might also trip you up - "person" is the standard LDAP ObjectClass for an AD userid. Are you able to successfully execute an LDAP query from the command-line using "ldapsearch" (typically found in the "openldap-clients" package or similar)? I would start there, to prove your Observium server can actually reach your DC and run a query successfully, before trying to enable LDAP in Observium. You can't do a non-TLS LDAP bind on 389 by default, which is why we use 636 and ldaps. IIRC, something has to be done on the client (Observium) side to allow OpenLDAP to accept the internal AD-generated TLS certificate the AD server offers, but I can't find it right now. -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services [MERLIN] 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB, R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) athompson(a)merlin.mb.ca<mailto:athompson@merlin.mb.ca> www.merlin.mb.ca<http://www.merlin.mb.ca/> From: observium <observium-bounces(a)observium.org<mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org>> On Behalf Of Valerie Lim via observium Sent: Monday, April 25, 2022 9:16 PM To: observium(a)observium.org<mailto:observium@observium.org> Cc: Valerie Lim <valerie.lim(a)acclivis.com<mailto:valerie.lim@acclivis.com>> Subject: [Observium] Observium LDAP Integration Hi I am currently using professional v22.4.11952 for Observium.

Below is my config.php configuration: // Authentication Model $config['auth_mechanism'] = "ldap"; // default, other options: ldap, http-auth, please s> $config['auth_ldap_binddn'] = "cn=Administrator,cn=Users,dc=domain01,dc=com"; $config['auth_ldap_bindpw'] = "xxxxxxx"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uid'] = "sAMAccountName"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['uidNumber'] = "objectSid"; $config['auth_ldap_attr']['cn'] = "name"; $config['auth_ldap_objectclass'] = "user"; $config['auth_ldap_version'] = 3; $config['auth_ldap_server'] = "server01.domain01.com"; $config['auth_ldap_port'] = 389; $config['auth_ldap_starttls'] = FALSE; $config['auth_ldap_prefix'] = "cn="; $config['auth_ldap_suffix'] = ",ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_group'] = array("cn=grouping,ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"); $config['auth_ldap_groupbase'] = "cn=grouping,ou=acclivis,DC=domain01,DC=com"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmembertype'] = "nondn"; $config['auth_ldap_groupmemberattr'] = "member"; unset($config['auth_ldap_groups']); $config['auth_ldap_groups']['test']['level'] = 10; Is there something I missing out on my LDAP configuration? Please advise. Thanks Best Regards Valerie Lim

Cloud networks monitoring option in Observium
by Jan Horacek 26 Apr '22

26 Apr '22

Good morning guys, I want to ask you if there is any development thread which will introduce cloud services monitoring into observium. I don`t mean the classic monitoring way of vhost via SNMP, but over API calls directly from the cloud tools. We are currently transferring our network capabilities from the standard setup to CloudWan and looking for the monitoring options and our vision is to concentrate monitoring features in observium dashboards. I appreciate any hints or tips. Thanks

Hello peoples, Hope you are all well! I know this is not specifically an observium issue, but was hoping someone could shed some light on the problem if they have also experienced it. This is on a new build, fresh install; Debian 11 using the automated observium script; Every time the cron job triggers, every 5 minutes, I get this warning. bservium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 09:35:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 9:35:01 15776 [Warning] Aborted connection 15776 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 09:40:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 9:40:01 15880 [Warning] Aborted connection 15880 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 09:45:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 9:45:01 15985 [Warning] Aborted connection 15985 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 09:50:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 9:50:01 16090 [Warning] Aborted connection 16090 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 09:55:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 9:55:01 16194 [Warning] Aborted connection 16194 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 10:00:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 10:00:01 16300 [Warning] Aborted connection 16300 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 10:05:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 10:05:01 16404 [Warning] Aborted connection 16404 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) Apr 21 10:10:01 SoMuchForSubtlety mariadbd[13023]: 2022-04-21 10:10:01 16509 [Warning] Aborted connection 16509 to db: 'observium' user: 'observium' host: 'localhost' (Got an error reading communication packets) It doesn't seem to be affecting the application, Observium is graphing and monitoring just fine. Has anyone solved this issue? Kind regards, Ross.
