I haven't had any luck getting the pam_ldap password stuff to work, ymmv. login is more complicated and you should really understand fully what you're doing before you construct a login pam config. But suffice it to say that pam_ldap does work atleast for auth and account. -- Jamie Heilman http://audible.transient.net/~jamie/ "I was in love once -- a Sinclair ZX-81.
