If you need help on setting up ldap authentication, I might be able to help you out through private emails, since I've had a great deal of experience dealing with it.

First, I'll qualify my question with the fact that I am relatively new at managing Linux. Right now, I cannot login to either my user account or root through the GUI login page. Before I had this problem, I had changed my authentication settings to use LDAP. I probably should've tried to setup the LDAP services prior to rebooting, but I had another problem requiring me to reboot.
When I came back to the login screen neither account could login. I am able to boot the machine under SINGLE USER mode and I've been looking for ways to revert back to the original login scheme. I found the authconfig file and change the use LDAP settings to no, but I didn't change anything else. One behavior that I've noticed, is that when I type in a username and password that I know don't work, I get a message "Incorrect username or password ..". When I use the known username/password pair, I get a popup dialog with a message "Authentication Failed" and I need to click OK to continue.
Any idea how to revert to the standard authentication scheme? It won't be much to re-install, but if I can avoid it that would be great. I'm learning quite a bit just trying to troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks.
