Is nss_ldap in the non-building package list, or is it deprecated
and there is now another method to use ldap for authentication ?
It was broken (new automake + undefined reference to
`__libc_lock_*) and when investigating I found that it is dead and
removed from several distros with suggestions to use nss-pam-ldapd
(Fedora commit removing it also mentions sssd)
BTW, if nss_ldap has been dropped, we could also drop pam_ldap, I
don't much interest of allowing to authenticate users unknown from
the system...
Not _could_, but _should_. Currently pam_ldap requires nss_ldap, that
is not in the repos no more (not only not rebuilt, but absent....)
And if mcc/drakxtools can be used to configure ldap, migrate everything
to nss-pam-ldapd...
Any decission on this ? I can move my servers to nss-pam-ldapd
if thats the way to go...
I looked at some boxes on Uni with CentOS and use also nss-pam-ldapd (and
CentOS is a not-so-up-to-date distro...). I migrated my Mageia boxes to
that (both mga2 and mga3) and all is working fine.
