Hi, I'm in trouble with my linux box (kernel 2.4.21-4.EL) on which I use remote Ldap authentication : When I logging in with a user ID registered in the LDAP directory, I got the following message before getting a shell prompt : "Cannot find name for user ID 780". I'm well authenticated but it seems that the user ID cannot be retrieved in the LDAP tree... The "id" command on the machine says : "uid=780 gid=100(users) groups=100(users)" I have configured the system to use pam_ldap (in /etc/pam.d/system-auth) and I have also configured the nss_ldap (in /etc/nsswitch.conf). If I create a file system entry in my home directory, the system does not match my user ID as well : [ users]# touch foo [ users]# ll foo -rw-rw---- 1 780 users 0 May 28 15:20 foo But, if I become root, I retrieve the user ID correctly as shown hereafter: [ users]# su Password: [ users]# id uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),6(disk),10(wheel) [ users]# ll foo -rw-rw---- 1 user1 users 0 May 28 15:20 foo Does anybody have an idee to help me on this problem? I use the following ldap packages on my client box: openldap-2.0.27-11 nss_ldap-207-2 openldap-clients-2.0.27-11 And I use the openldap-servers-2.0.27-11 package on the LDAP server. Thanks in advance. Regards. ************************************************************ The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential.
