Beyond that, I don't know what to tell you. nss_ldap claims it requires freebsd 5.1 or newer when I try to install it, if there is someway to be able to still use it on freebsd, I would like to know. And I already know about pam_ldap, but that doesn't do everything I need, but it may still be useful. >=20 > --=20 > David Raynes > I am just a figment of my own imagination. > http://www.rayners.org -- http://www.theplothooks.org > !DSPAM:400e0792195951997714976! --=20 I sense much NT in you.
