Zeilenga Sent: Tuesday, September 21, 2004 4:35 AM To: Rezk Mekhael Cc: openldap-software@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Client Problem You are apparently trying to get NSS and nss-ldap to work properly on the system you refer to as an client. Neither NSS nor nss-ldap are part of OpenLDAP Software. Not sure where NSS is generally supported (likely a Redhat list is is best as you are apparently using Redhat Linux). For nss-ldap, PADL provides the <nssldap@xxxxxxxx> mailing list.
