ldap is definatly an area where i have as little exptertise possible, but its looking like that is going to change sooner than later. what i would like to accomplish at the office is to have a redhat box authenticate passwords against an ldap server on the network, instead of thru the local shadow file. is this possible? im hoping to get a little insight as to where i need to head with this before i spend a lot of time and maybe spin a lot of wheels on this project. ultimatly, what i want to end up with is an FTP server that will authenticate based on our pre-existing ldap database, thus extending all our single sign-on capabilities were growing here at the office. for instance, create a user, but instead of setting a passwd on the box, the user attempts a login and the server checks against our ldap server.. yadda yadda blabity blah. is this possible?? thanks, jonathan -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
