Ok, I think I have it. The problem was that authconfig-gtk and tui, from some reason, did not work correctly. I used the authconfig CLI and now ldapsearch works. Thanks for the pointers. I haven't logged in yet (can't right now) but since ldapsearch returned info from the LDAP server, I'm _assuming_ it'll work now (course, we know what happens when one assumes ) thanks! brad -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
