Folks,
I am adding a mailserver to an existing K12LTSP setup, and
adding LDAP auth so my mailserver can do the right thing.
It is all redhat-based - FC1 for the K12LTSP server, and
whitebox (RHEL) for the mailserver.
Everything works.
The server authenticates against /etc/passwd or LDAP.
My problem is that the server will NOT authenticate using
/etc/passwd if the LDAP server is not accessible - gdm
complains about not being able to set up the account -
even though the accounts in question are not in LDAP.
Relaxing the account entries in /etc/pam.d/system-auth moves
things on a bit further - I get logged in - but the desktops
are not correct.
/etc/nsswitch.conf carries the edits done by authconfig -
passwd: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
group: files ldap
/etc/pam.d/system-auth has the following :-
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
auth required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_env.so
auth sufficient /lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok

Help ?
What is gdm looking for ?
Cheers, Andy!
