[Fedora-directory-users] Looking for documentation to setupOSX to FDS.

[John Call]

Aloha Steve, and FDS list,

I hope this doesn't take away from Steve's thread.  I also  
authenticate Mac OS X clients to FDS.  I had a real bad time trying to  
figure out why the Mac clients would not authenticate while, at the  
same time, all other clients and applications could.  Eventually my  
team discovered that an encryption library (cyrus-sasl???) was causing  
the problem.  Oh, and by the way, we are using Red Hat Enterprise  
Linux 4.  The problem was solved when we removed the libraries from  
the system.  In actuality we simply moved them from their default  
installation location to the /root directory.  With the libraries not  
being found, our Mac clients could authenticate.  Here is a listing of  
the files I've moved... (pleas see below)

Here is a real question.  I've forgotten the exact reason why Mac  
clients could not authenticate with these files in their defined  
locations.  Could somebody on the list please re-explain this to me so  
that I can document it properly in my KB/KMS?

Thanks,
John
