Hey thanks man.

I have PAM PTA  with krb working fine as well..
However..I am trying to pass through to another LDAP server, how can i
go about doing that? The base of the tree on the other LDAP server is
different i want to use it to authenticate the accounts. The other
tree has the equivalent of the uid attribute in a different attribute.
I think my service file (ldapserver) is off.  Anyone have PAM PTA to
another LDAP server working? An example perhaps?
I am getting operations errors trying to use PAM PTA. I know the
passwords are correct so I am doing something incorrectly.

pam_passthru-plugin - => pam_passthru_bindpreop
pam_passthru-plugin - pam msg [0] = 1 Password:
pam_passthru-plugin - Error from PAM during pam_authenticate (6:
Permission denied)
pam_passthru-plugin - Unknown PAM error [Permission denied] for user
id [test_user], bind DN [uid=test_user,dc=example,dc=com]
 pam_passthru-plugin - <= handled (error 1 - Operations error)

Thanks again
