Hi all,

I have a CentOS-5 workstation configured to retrieve user id information from LDAP server and password from another kerberos server.

If I setup a user entry on /etc/passwd file all works ok, user can logon on GDM and password is verifiyed via kerberos.

But If I use LDAP to retrieve user information, GDM doesn't works. On the other side, I can login on console using ldap for user information.

GDM returns this error on /var/log/secure:

Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): check pass; user unknown Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_succeed_if(gdm:auth): error retrieving information about user testuser

And on /var/log/messages:

Nov 5 13:45:41 deagol gdm[2484]: Couldn't authenticate user

All other services that I use with ldap (ssh for example) works ok. Somebody knows where is the problem??

Many thanks.
