Hello Gurus,

when setting up administrators to manage FW-1 you can choose "OS
Password" as an authentication method. When using local authentication
via /etc/passwd & /etc/shadow it works fine but when trying to
authenticate via a LDAP server the fwm daemon crashes. configuration in
nsswitch.conf:

passwd: compat
passwd_compat:  files ldap

the OS login itself works fine.

Any idea how to authenticate administrators via LDAP (I just need the
authentication,not the permissions profile)?

The smartcenter runs on SUN SPARC Solaris 10

Thanks in advance
Regards Burkhard Trinder
