I just uploaded a set of potato backport packages to ftp://ftp.valinux.com/pub/people/wichert/ . The packages are divided in two categories:
* kernel24, which has packages you need to run a 2.4 kernel. The only really needed package is modutils, the rest is only needed to use the extra features that 2.4 offers. * ldap, which has OpenLDAPv2 packages with TLS support enabled. These are needed if you need to use LDAP3 or TLS with LDAP. The apt sources.list line to get these is: deb ftp://ftp.valinux.com/pub/people/wichert/debian potato/backport kernel24 ldap deb-src ftp://ftp.valinux.com/pub/people/wichert/debian potato/backport kernel24 ldap Please note that these packages have only been tested briefly, so it is likely there are some bugs. Please report those to the va-debian-users list or to me directly instead of filing bugreports to the Debian BTS. Known problems / things to check: * the kernel image packages might need to be redone, I haven't had the opportunity to verify them yet. Please note they are tuned for VA hardware and don't include the full set of drivers that the normal Debian images have. * there might be a problem with changing the password for other users when using LDAP accounts. * the SASL non-US modules might not work correctly; this is supposed to be fixed in the latest unstable version, I need to verify if the problem also occurs in the backport * Ben Collins just uploaded a new openldap package to unstable, and the changelog mentioned a TLS related patch. Need to verify if that needs to be added to the backported package as well. * there are only i386 packages. Since VA only sells i386 hardware and I don't have the time to rebuild everything for multiple architectures I am not going to recompile them. However if other people do I will gladly add them to the archive.
