Hello Bill, Is your pam set correctly? did u use the RH auth setup? If so u might wanna use pam-ldap then pam_unix first_pass HTH, Jesse

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me why the following is occurring?
I have one openLDAP server running under RH8.0... I then have a number of other servers that authenticate via the main openLDAP server... these range from RH7.2 to RH8.0.
The pertinent portion of my nsswitch.conf is thus:
passwd: files nisplus ldap shadow: files nisplus ldap group: files nisplus ldap
the root account is set on each machine using passwd,shadow,group, it is not set in openLDAP.
The problem I have is that if the openLDAP server is down, it takes ages... like 5 minutes, to login as root or to do anything which checks authentication... to me it should be checking files for this first before ldap... but that certainly does not seem how it is... I will have a replica openLDAP server soon, but I would like to understand this fully... does anyone know how to fix that.. .or know anywhere where there are people that know how to fix this?
Thanks
Bill Dossett
