Hi friends, I am facing the foollowing problem with LDAP based authentication. Let me explain about it. I am in the first phace and so only a single machine is acting as client. The domain name which I am using is dc=it,dc=iitb,dc=ac,dc=in And in the client side I configued the authentication part for LDAP based authentication. ( ie LDAP server as 10.129.50.37 -which is the ip of my server Base dn as dc=it,dc=iitb,dc=ac,dc=in ) Using the migration tool, I migrated the accouts from the client to server and it is comimg under ou=People subtree in the LDAP tree. Then I deleted all other accounts( root, postgres etc. ) from the LDAP tree and only one guest account of the client I kept there. Then I removed the guest user from the client and tried to login to that with the assumption that I can login through the LDAP. But it is not allowing me for that and the usual invalid username or password mesaage is what I am getting. So friends, Is there anything wrong in what I am doing ? or Is there something more I have to do ? Thanking you in anticipation, Dipu Kumar M IIT, Bombay He will be there whenever one wants him or not -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
