Re: Cannot authentication locally when LDAP is unavailable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



your symptom is very odd, because your configuration should try
file-based authn first.  Can you bump the logging to DEBUG?  A failed
LDAP connection should be logged.

Also, upgrading to either a contemporary 2.2 release or 2.4 wouldn't hurt!
