I need to connect my Mdk 9.0 box to an LDAP server. NIS is a piece of cake,
but I've never messed with LDAP.
I configured the DN, and the LDAP server in ldap.conf.

ldapsearch -x

produces a page full of info. But.. I can't get any user ID's off the
server, for login authentication. I've found tons of documentation on
configuring a serer, but nothing on configuring a client. Would one of you
LDAP experts out there shed some light on this for me?
Have you looked here:

http://www.mandrakesecure.net/en/docs/ldap-auth.php

??

It covers the client and server install for using LDAP for authentication, and some of the drawbacks involved.

Of course, read the user comments as well... there's a lot of good info in the comments that extend what the document itself covers.
