Re: LDAP client authentication on Fedora 16/17

[Amit Karpe]

Following changes & restarting LDAP server help me.

On Server
#service dirsrv restart

On Client
/etc/nsswitch.conf
passwd:     files ldap
shadow:     files ldap
group:      files ldap
netgroup:   files ldap
hosts:      files dns

/etc/sysconfig/authconfig
USELDAPAUTH=yes
FORCELEGACY=yes

/etc/nss_ldap.conf
bind_policy soft

/etc/pam_ldap.conf
bind_policy soft


Thanks a lot.
