 Hello all,
 I'm setting up LTSP5 on Feisty with LDAP authentication.
 It works quite well I think. Client can boot and logging on their LTSP pc.
 However, I cannot get Localdev to work.
 
 I follow the doc at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EnableLTSP5LocalDevices and it 
 turns out that ltspfs is not installed yet, so I install both on host and 
 chroot env:
 fuse-utils_2.6.3-1ubuntu2_i386.deb 
 libfuse2_2.6.3-1ubuntu2_i386.deb 
 ltspfs_0.4.3-0ubuntu6_i386.deb
 
 And then open System  Administration  Users and Groups
 Type in the root password, the cursor rotates a bit, and nothing.
 
 Can LTSP5's localdev work with LDAP authentication?
 Thanks.

I see you solved your problem via info from Scott.  But if it is any help here 
is the
howto I created for configuring LDAP on Ubuntu flavors:

http://www.1-cs.com/ubuntu_ldap_howto.txt

This covers setting up fat clients as well using NFS mounted /homes and an LDAP 
user
base, but you probably don't care about those parts.  I was having problems 
with users
mounting devices, running sound events and other small problems as well.  If 
you follow
how I set up groups to mimic local groups in the LDAP database then you can be 
sure you
won't have these problems in the future.  This way the group info is still in 
the LDAP
as well and you can set up new user defaults without any manual additions.

This also covers LDAP management with Webmin if you want too.

HTH
Jim

Hello Jim, that is very nice of you. Many thanks. Much appreciated.
I use Zimbra's extension for managing a Samba PDC + LDAP.

 Hello Jim, that is very nice of you. Many thanks. Much appreciated.
 I use Zimbra's extension for managing a Samba PDC + LDAP.

I hope this can help someone, if nothing else it helps me remember how to set 
my network
back up :-)

Hopefully the info on mirroring local groups with an ldap prefix but identical 
gid's to
solve local device problems/usage is worth something to someone.  It really 
helped fix
all my problems in mixed thin client/fat client networks.

I've never looked at Zimbra, I'll check it out.

thanks
Jim

Well, this is really a problem with the User's and Groups  not working with
ldap.

You'll need to make sure the users are members of the fuse group.
