Rich, Thanks for all your help. I got it all working like I expect except I still get the errors in the logs about admserv_host_ip_check's. I really do not want to turn on HostnameLookups so is there anyway to stop the notices so they do not fill up the logs. I searched the documentation and could not find out how to do this. Also I could not find anything in http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:AdminServerLDAPMgmt about hostname lookups (did I just miss it). Thanks again for your time and help. cheers, ski On 03/03/2010 07:05 PM, Rich Megginson wrote: > Ski Kacoroski wrote: >> Ah, I do not get this error when I connect to the IP, only to the >> hostname.
