Right. *sigh* Wish I'd sent a copy of my instructions that I documented to myself before I left my last contract. <Digs into memory> First, you need to edit nsswitch for passwd and shadow, at least, to point to ldap then files. Then you need to edit (or create) an /etc/pam_ldap.conf There also needs to be an ldap.conf, to point to the openldap server. This may, or may not, be in /etc/openldap. Finally, you need to edit /etc/pam.d/system-auth, and insert for auth, and account (I think, and password, and *maybe* session, before the line for pam_unix.so, one for pam_ldap.so I think that's what you need. I don't guarantee I haven't missed something.... mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
