Hi ! I have a prob with the combination devfsd daemon and LDAP.
I have configured LDAP (server = 127.0.0.1) and all works well, if i start linux with boot parameter "devfs=nomount". But as soon as i start linux with "devfs=mount", the devfsd daemon fails to load and therefor all daemons fails to load which try to access files in /dev that normally generated by the devfsd daemon (like /dev/tty?, /dev/hda?, etc). Ok, i can reconfigure/recompile these daemons to work with the new /dev structure, but i hope there is an easier way. Any ideas or infos to solv that problem ? relevant rpm packages: devfsd-1.3.25-22mdk libldap2-2.0.27-1mdk libldap2-devel-2.0.27-1mdk nss_ldap-194-3mdk openldap-2.0.27-1mdk openldap-clients-2.0.27-1mdk openldap-guide-2.0.27-1mdk openldap-migration-2.0.27-1mdk openldap-servers-2.0.27-1mdk pam_ldap-148-3mdk perl-ldap-0.26-2mdk php-ldap-4.2.3-1mdk samba-common-ldap-2.2.7-2mdk samba-server-ldap-2.2.7-2mdk samba-swat-ldap-2.2.7-2mdk /etc/nsswitch.conf ============================= passwd: files ldap shadow: files ldap group: files ldap #hosts: db files nisplus nis dns hosts: files dns ldap bootparams: nisplus [NOTFOUND=return] files ethers: files netmasks: files networks: files protocols: files rpc: files services: files netgroup: nisplus publickey: nisplus automount: files nisplus aliases: files nisplus ============================================ /etc/pam.d/passwd ============================= #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth account sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth password sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_authtok password required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth ============================================ /etc/pam.d/system-auth ========================= #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_first_pass auth required /lib/security/pam_deny.so account required /lib/security/pam_unix.so account [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore service_err=ignore system_err=ignore] /lib/security/pam_ldap.so password required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3 minlen=2 dcredit=0 ucredit=0 password sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so nullok use_authtok md5 shadow password sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so use_authtok password required /lib/security/pam_deny.so session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so session required /lib/security/pam_unix.so session optional /lib/security/pam_ldap.so ============================================ Regards, Juergen Krause
