Re: [MLUG] LDAP Authentication

[Nimrod Levy <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

That sounds like a pam issue.  Look in the login config for pam and try 
commenting out the line for account referencing the unix module.

I know that's very vauge, but I don't have access to pam stuff right 
now.

Once the user authenticates, you'll need to figure out how to set $HOME 
so they will have a home directory and stuff...
