RE: [edlug] xserver ldap su question
The answer was to remove the rootbinddn entry in the /etc/ldap.conf and use
binddn instead. This means I need to learn more about anonymous binding to
AD, but at least I have a test box which I can logon to with my AD
credentials and pick up my home dir via the NIS. This may sound a bit like
overkill but it does suit our needs. This is especially so as we can use all
numeric ID's a feature not readily available to us in Solaris.

Subject: [edlug] xserver ldap su question
I have setup my Redhat Enterprise station to authenticate vi Active
Directory using LDAP, however when I issue "su" I get the following output:
keving@xxx.xxx.xxx(101)% su -
Password:
do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Timed out
[root@eurydice root]#
This all takes sometime. For some reason it doesn't want to look at the
local files for Root although the nsswitch.conf states "passwd: files
ldap". Any thoughts?
This also seems to be affecting my xserver when I reboot and I have to kill
the process from a ssh session to alow me to logon to the station.
