<div>OK, so i was expecting some base which are binding it to FDS.....but did not find here any such thing...which gives an impression that system-config-authentication is not working proberly in CentOS5.3. My assumption may be wrong....</div>

<div> </div>
<div>so if i put some entry in this like (base dc=vfds,dc=local)...and then boot the client machine... can i expect it workin then.....</div>
<div> </div>
<div>waiting for the advise....in the mean time i am rebooting the machine....</div>

<div>many thanks in advance...</div>
