/etc/ldap.conf is used by nss /etc/openldap/ldap.conf is only used by openldap clients and stuff that uses openldap libraries -----Original Message----- From: fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com] On Behalf Of Steven Jones Sent: Wednesday, 5 December 2007 11:08 AM To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project. Subject: Differences between /etc/ldap.conf and/etc/openldap/ldap.conf Hi, It would seem that LDAP stuff on Redhat/Fedora at least is a bit messy, there would seem to be two ldap.conf files, /etc/ldap.conf and /etc/openldap/ldap.conf A while back I was told not to sym link them as their contents differ....so OK this is the /etc/ldap.conf I have written, #========= #ssl setup # http://www.padl.com base dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz pam_password md5 BASE dc=vuw,dc=ac,dc=nz TLS_REQCERT allow #TLS_REQCERT never host ldap.vuw.ac.nz ssl start_tls uri ldap://ldap.vuw.ac.nz/ tls_cacertdir /etc/openldap/cacerts #======== How would /etc/openldap/ldap.conf differ? What would the file look like to do the same job? regards Steven Jones Senior Linux/Unix/San/Vmware System Administrator APG -Technology Integration Team Victoria University of Wellington Phone: +64 4 463 6272 -- Fedora-directory-users mailing list Fedora-directory-users at redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users NOTICE: This email and any attachments are confidential.
