Hi,

Sorry for the confusing subject, but the problem is:

On an LDAP client, it seems that only root can login when the LDAP
server is not reachable, other local users can't be used (timeout).
I did choose the "local authorization is sufficient option" and
I can login fine as a local user while the LDAP server is reachable.

So: it it possible to login as (any) local user when the LDAP server
is not reachable (maybe with a short delay)?

On RHEL4, I added "authinfo_unavail=ignore" in system-auth's pam_ldap
entry, which worked more or less IIRC, but this doesn't seem to have
any effect on RHEL5.

Both server (OpenLDAP) and client systems are RHEL5.

Thanks,
