Dear FEDORA Users,
Once is enough. This is not a paid instant support site. Give people a
chance to try to answer your question. Also, please use a subject that gives an idea of the scope of your query.

1) In a LDAP configuration, once the files are imported, the users
are shown in the GUI of the LINUX, fedora operating system.
Which GUI are you talking about ?
- system-config-users ?
- the gnome login screen ?

2) But in my case, after i imported the user-"xyz" in the LDAP
server, LINUX Fedora operating system, is not showing up the
user-"xyz" in the GUI.
Does ldapsearch prove that the import was successful ?

3) May i know why it is happening so.

For your information, i have changed the slapd.conf file and
/etc/ldap.conf files.
Posting those config files would probably help others to follow how you configured it {leave out your passwords}.

After configuring the LDAP server, i have  run the  command-

system-config-authentication

Now please tell me, how much time the FEDORA linux takes in order to
learn the fact that new users haev been imported to the LDAP server ?
If it is working, it should be live, or at worst a reboot.

i have tried atleast 20 times by restarting/shutdown of the system to
make it appear on the GUI ?
Users wont appear in the system-config-users gui - that only shows the local users in the passwd/groups files.

You might like to look at GUI ldap browser. I use a java one named ldap browser.
