A better solution would be to use sssd for authentication. It can cache credentials if the server is not available. If you use 'authconfig' to set up your LDAP configuration, it will automatically configure SSSD correctly. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlOtebQACgkQeiVVYja6o6OgCwCgmNfaO417enq8GSV435k2m4Ln NbgAni+QBMuOuuY73+CO2RptRgyIUzhj =0aMQ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Originally I set this up as a stand-alone until all my company's security issues were mitigated. The problem is that on the GDM login, it does not display the name. I have this set up on our RHEL servers but not my laptop, so I log in as a local user and ssh to the servers. I can SU (or SUDO) to the LDAP user. I do have a local user set up with the same userid and group, but a separate home directory. I probably missed something somewhere. I was able to get it to work, but when the console locks the password does not work. I have it set to autologin so the issue is with ddm. My solution was to create a local user with the same credentials of my LDAP user.
