Thanks. Do you have configs from your setup?I'd like to compare your working setup with my nonworking one, see if i can spot the issue.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I looked at permissions on the nss_* and ldap* and slapd.conf files, they are all 644.
This issue may be related maybe not. Upon starting slapd i'm seeing this in my log:
Jan 20 23:23:41 ldap slapd[3697]: nss_ldap: could not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable
yet as i say i can log in, only the username part of the prompt is unavailable. Again checking PS1 it is set properly.
Thanks.
Dave.

Hello,
I'm trying to set up centos 5.1 to authenticate against an openldap
server. I've got the authentication working, in that i can log in as a user
contained within the ldap database but not in the system passwd/group files.
The problem is instead of a prompt that for example looks like this:
(username)@hostname:~/$
i'm getting this:
(I have no name)@hostname:~/$
Aside from this everything works, i can finger, use id, etc. It's
annoying and i'm thinking it might be a symptom of a misconfiguration. Any
suggestions?
Thanks.
Dave.

I allso experienced this with CentOS4.4, then I got i because of some missconfiguration with the LDAP. If I remember correctly is was coz of some permission was failling on some ldap configuration files (/etc/ldap.conf, /etc/openldap/slapd.conf, /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/openldap/ldap.conf)

Hi
Yes i use it with samba as pdc. My /etc/ldap.conf look like this
host localhost
base dc=example,dc=com
bindpw secret
binddn cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com
#rootbinddn cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com
ssl no
pam_filter objectclass=posixAccount
pam_login_attribute uid
pam_password md5
I did this some time ago, so i dont remember all of it. But I noticed that what order the lines are in here was a issue too
