Thanks very much. > Do you want to authenticate users to LDAP using their Oracle credentials? Maybe there is an odbc SASL data source? Then it might be possible to configure the DS SASL to use it. Can PAM be configured to auth against a database? If so, then you could use the PAM passthrough plugin. Otherwise, this sounds like a job for a BIND pre-op plugin. Or do you want to authenticate users to Oracle apps using their LDAP credentials? I don't know how LDAP aware Oracle apps are, but in most cases I've seen this involves some sort of sync process by which passwords and other data are synchronized between Oracle and LDAP. > Aaron > > www.preferredcare.org > "An Outstanding Member Experience," Preferred Care HMO Plans -- J.
