To Help: create FDS 7.1 rpm,pkgadd and hp depot packages.
Excellent. We definitely need better native package support.
BUT ...
I have no bandwidth to write indvidual fds-7.1.spec package sources
or package source for Solaris and HP-UX package management system.
What I can offer is to use the TWW HPMS system I know to create
one software build source(in xml) to build fds binary and one package build
source
for all three unix platforms to generate native packages.

To Lean: I heard it is possible to create a pure ldap authentication
environment. ie
any vaild user in a ldap server can login into a
RH/Solaris box without adding an user
entry in local /etc/passwd file.
I was able to configure proftpd use ldap authentication, and wondering why
not sshd or telnetd ?
If PAM supports it, it should work.
hmm, I remember I configured pam but in the end I need to insert
an user name from ldap server into /etc/passwd so that telnet or
ssh can work.
My last attempt ended with ldap guru saying it is on ldap server side(it
need to support a RFCxxxx).
The goal is to escape NIS authentication and go to a ldap unix
environment.
Was it RFC 2307? This is the RFC that describes how LDAP can be used to
replace NIS - the schema to support NIS clients.
Thanks. I will remember this number by heart now.
