Does anyone have pam_ldap working on FreeBSD? I'm trying to get it going with FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE. Apparently, the fact that nss_ldap doesn't work on FreeBSD yet is causing the failure. For example: If I put an account on the ldap server: username = test password = word1 uid = 1000 I can not log in. No ldap errors, just rejected login, however, if I also create a local user in /etc/password: username = test password = completelydifferent uid = 1000 I can now log in as "test" using the password "word1". Apparently, pam_ldap is working, but FreeBSD won't let the login complete unless it can convert the uid back to a name. Is there a workaround for this? Or do I need to fall back on NIS and use that? It really seems like a shame not to be able to use this. Is someone working on getting nss working that I could help out? -- Bill Moran Potential Technology technical services (412) 793-4257 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
