Im running CentOS 5 with samba configured as PDC, with samba 3.0.24 and openldap-servers-2.3.30-2. My /etc/nsswitch.conf is like this: passwd: files ldap shadow: files ldap group: files ldap The problem is when I try to restart LDAP (/etc/init.d/ldap restart) then the init script just hangs. I suppose it will try to run slapd as the ldap user The ldap user is not in LDAP only in /etc/passwd, how can i configure my system to look for users first in LDAP and then in /etc/passwd When I remove LDAP from my /etc/nsswitch.conf, so it looks like below passwd: files shadow: files group: files then ldap start up nicely, but then my LDAP users can't sign in I tried to do different changes in pam, but without any progress Please advice -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
