Hye,

problem has been solved, thank you.

Since I was using slackware without PAM, I wasn't able to auth as an ldap user. nsswitch.conf was good, nss_ldap was installed but I needed PAM for the auth part. After installing PAM and having it configured, auth is working. I now need to recompile most of my files in order to get su, ssh and other programs to work with LDAP auth (and PAM).

Thank you,

Johnny PINSON

Hey,

I installed an openldap client and nss_ldap on a linux computer running slackware. Then I modified /etc/nsswitch.conf, adding ldap to authentify thanks a ldap server.

The commands "getent password" and "id" are working. When I'm root and doing a "su $user", I'm able to su as $user. But, if I try to log in as $user, I get everytime an "invalid password".

What can I do please to get i working? Would you need copy of my config files?

Thanks a lot,
