I don't have any quick answers to your questions. There's some support in the nss_ldap module for some of the things that you need, but I'm not an expert in this area. On the server side I don't know what we have in place. OK, maybe this post is actually devoid of any information making it completely worthless. But! Our long term goals include making it very easy to do what you're suggesting. --Chris Patrick von der Hagen wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm very, very to read about fedora (and Redhat) ldap server.
