15-20 seconds is to long. I only authentificate ldap-users via Samba-login with windows machines, and this works fast without any delay. For the authentification issue: if your user is in the local user data base, it is authentificated against it (depending on your nsswitch and pam settings), if he is in ldap, he is authentificated against ldap. You should't have users in both, local and ldap. I looked again at your access rules in slapd.conf: try out these rules: ----- access to attrs=userPassword,gecos,description,loginShell by dn="uid=root,ou=people,dc=kavach,dc=blr" write by anonymous auth by self write by * none access to * by dn="uid=root,ou=people,dc=kavach,dc=blr" write by users read ----- The first rule allows root to and self to change the attributes "userPassword,gecos,description,loginShell", anonymous to authentificate (=login!) and * nothing. The second rule allows root to change all other attributes and authentificated users to read all other attributes. Regards, Marc -- [email protected] mailing list
