There was a nice howto for setting up centralized authentication.<A href="http://web.singnet.com.sg/~garyttt/"> http://web.singnet.com.sg/~garyttt/</A> Hope it helps you, // Magnus On Wed, 10 Nov 2004 16:21 , Greg Dotts <member@dottsfamily.com> sent: <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #5167c6 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">Greetings Guru's, I'm at my wits end attempting to configure LDAP authentication on my Fedora 2 server. I'm not new to Linux, but am new to directory management. Running debugs on slapd returns positive information when GQ is used to browse/change the directory, but when I attempt to login via console with any user other than root results in no contact with the LDAP server. Root authenticates OK, but not via LDAP. Synopsis: OS=Fedora Core 2, fully updated via APT/Synaptic. Running current updates of openldap et al, nss_ldap, pam, and openssl. My LDAP server is working and searchable/writable locally using either GQ or standard openldap tools. I have used the tools 'authconfig' and 'system-config-authentication' to enable LDAP authentication and manually modified 'nsswitch.conf', and '/etc/pam.d/login and /etc/pam.d/system-auth'. It appears that PAM is not contacting the LDAP server for authentication. Does anyone have a suggestion as to why this may be? I know this is a very open question, but I've struggled with this for about a week and spent several days searching the internet for answers. I have followed many HOW-TO's and rebuilt my LDAP directory about a dozen times. It appears the LDAP server is working fine, but no requests are being made from login to the LDAP server.
