I have priviledge speration set to no, just because I haven't had a chance to test it with yes yet, I don't think it would work with the strict permissions on the pam_ldap.conf. maybe you can get around this by using group permissions. > > While watching the logs in the terminal I started slapd from with -d 255 > switch, I don't even see any action when trying to ssh as user aphro or > any other user for that matter.

It's not finished yet I hope to finish the initial version tonight. hopefully this can encourage users to add more info to the documents on their own since its really difficult to get in the documenting "mode", as can be seen by my not updating my LDAP docs since august ..even though I know there is at least 2 errors in it. also check out my MRTG docs which I completed the initial revision of the HOWTO over the weekend(another 10-20 hours of writing, ack), it has all the features of Zwiki enabled: http://howto.aphroland.de/HOWTO/MRTG nearly 60 different uses for MRTG documented there with more to come. good luck! nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
