Hello. I try to use a FreeBSD OpenLDAP (FreeBSD 8.2-STABLE/amd64, most recent OpenLDAP/openldap-sasl-server-2.4.24) as an authentication backend for an UBUNTU 10.10 server (using openldap 2.4.23). Most of the installation on the Ubuntu server has been successfully done (I'm not familiar with Linux, but it seems that things like pam and ldap are quite similar to FreeBSD's installation). From the Linux/Ubuntu server, I'm able to get all users and groups via 'getent passwd' and 'getent group', even 'id' on an OpenLDAP backed up user is successfully. But when it comes to a login via sshd, login fails with this error (loged on Linux Ubuntu in /var/log/auth.log): Mar 18 12:01:00 freyja sshd[26824]: Failed password for testuser from 192.168.0.128 port 40734 ssh2 Mar 18 12:01:23 freyja sshd[26854]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as user "uid=testuser,ou=users,dc=geoinf,dc=freyja,dc=com" (Confidentiality required) Mar 18 12:01:25 freyja sshd[26854]: Failed password for testuser from 192.168.0.128 port 54156 ssh2 I'm able to login from other systems (FreeBSD 9 and 8) via this specific OpenLDAP server. Does anyone has a glue? Please set me CC, I'm not subscribing this list. Thanks in advance and regards, Oliver
