[Freeipa-users] RHEL 6.3 identity manual - IPA

Hi Rob,

This is the way I configured it:-
1. Added the details in /etc/ldap.conf :-
binddn uid=sudo,cn=sysaccounts,cn=etc,dc=chargepoint,dc=dmz
bindpw xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ssl start_tls
tls_cacertfile /etc/ipa/ca.crt
tls_checkpeer yes

bind_timelimit 5
timelimit 15

uri ldap://ipa1.chargepoint.dmz
sudoers_base ou=SUDOers,dc=chargepoint,dc=dmz
sudoers_debug 1

2. Modified /etc/nsswitch.conf to fetch sudo details from ldap:-
sudoers:    files ldap

3. So what I can understand from the above steps is that I am
interacting directly with the LDAP (389-ds) Server directly (because I
am not using sss (instead ldap is being used)).
