I'll take a quick peek at all the configuration files on my Gutsy Desktop tomorrow and see if anything jumps out at me as way different. I put my instructions together as a combination of how to configure the server, a thin client system, fat clients with LDAP auth, and configuration of Webmin for user management. I tried to break down the sections to explain what each is for, but I can see how they could get confused and used together. As awesome as the smbldap installer is, it configures things without one knowing how or why. If/when something breaks, you are much more in the dark as to why or what to do to fix it. This is why I wanted to put together as simple of a manual howto as I could. If you follow that you will know how every piece of your LDAP setup works. But I have not tried it at all on Gutsy yet. I have a desktop that is not authenticating to LDAP yet. I need to set it up anyway, so I'll follow steps 8-12 tomorrow to be sure that the auth portion of a client to the server works in Gutsy. If all you need is user authentication with no NFS /home directories then those are the only steps you should have to run through on a client. I'll post back my results. Cool yet not so cool thing about this Desktop is that my Dual Head ATI card doesn't work for crap under Gutsy. So this thing is a total sandbox as it is almost unusable due to graphics problems. So if the LDAP setup trashes the box, I don't really care :-) Jim -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by the Cotter Technology Department, and is believed to be clean. -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
