      Hi,
If you are using pam.d for authentication then i beleive that the below site is a very good reference material for installation.
http://coewww.rutgers.edu/www1/linuxclass2003/lessons/lecture8.html
I have referred to the above site and done for authentication and automounting a partition.
Kindly refer and revert if it was of any support to you.
Thanks and regards

Hi,
Thanks for a quick respond. I did use the GUI within GNOME called 
"Athentication". I think I'm using pam.d I haven't try to copy 
anything yet. Also, I can't do the ldapsearch using -ZZ for TLS on 
RHEL 5. However, I get some errors. I was able to do the ldapsearch 
for -ZZ on Solaris.
thanks again,

Hi,
...
From where r u taking data for authentication. Is it using pamd 
or creating a new ldap bdb or ldbm.
Have u configured your client machine to connect to the ldap server 
for authentication using system-config-authentication.
In case you are using the pamd authentication module then you need 
to copy the following files from /usr/share/doc/nss_ldap-253/pam.d/ 
directory namely login, passwd, su, ssh to /etc/pam.d .
Then u need to try to authenticate.
Try googling through for the other method of authentication i.e. 
using ldbm or bdb database. As scripts needs to be executed to load 
your users data.
Kindly check and revert.
Thanks and Regards
