Yes, but it was giving referrals, which might have influenced it, but: [bgmilne@bgmilne bgmilne]$ grep ^host /etc/ldap.conf host localhost And on our ldap master (runs 9.0): [bgmilne@hercules bgmilne]$ grep ^host /etc/ldap.conf host hercules.cae.co.za [bgmilne@hercules bgmilne]$ hostname hercules.cae.co.za [bgmilne@hercules bgmilne]$ ssh localhost Last login: Fri Jan 24 10:55:53 2003 from bgmilne.cae.co.za [bgmilne@hercules bgmilne]$ >>> Where shall I file the bug, openldap-servers package or openssh-server? >> >> Reproduce on a different network first ... >> > Did it on a stand alone laptop (with ssh & ldap server on it) too, same > results. > > I'm starting to see more & more shit come up with using ldap... mysql > doesn't start, now this stuff with ssh, what's next? > We're running quite well, we haven't yet setup ldap referral for samba, but that's on the cards for the next few days ... and our pilot-test laptop which runs an ldap slave for disconnected auth has been working fine (though I didn't try mysql on it ;-)). One more thing to check, have you got an ldap entry in your hosts line of nsswitch.conf? It could be that you had a localhost entry on the machine you imported from with a different ip address, which got imported, so the reverse lookup doesn't return a good answer ...
