[Devel] [Forwarded:] libpam-ldap configuration questions in Skolelinux pr40

Dear friends,

Earlier today I sent this email, but the email address was faulty.

Since that (faulty) email address is repeated even in the message body,
please do not repeat my error. :-)

The rest of the info in the original email is believed to be correct.

Best regards
Per Harald

Hello friends,

When installing from a pr40 CD and also when doing an
"apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade"
after Skolelinux pr40 was released, you will get configuration questions
for libpam-ldap. This a bug.

Here are the configuration questions and the answers you must supply, in
order to have a well-functioning configuration afterwards:


Q1. LDAP Server host
----------------------------------

Default answer supplied: "ldap 127.0.0.1"
Edit this to read only "ldap"


Q2. Distinguished name
----------------------------------

Default answer supplied: "ou=People,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no"
Accept the default.


Q3. LDAP version to use:
----------------------------------

Alternatives: 3 2
Answer 3.


Q4. Make local root Database admin?
----------------------------------

Alternatives: Yes or No
Answer "No"


Q5. Database requires logging in.
----------------------------------

Alternatives: Yes or No
Answer "No"


Q6. Local crypt to use when changing passwords.
----------------------------------

Alternatives: exop, clear, crypt, nds, ad
Answer "exop"


----------------------------------
----------------------------------

The configuration dialog is finished.

Petter Reinholdsen was worried the line 'ssl start_tls' would be missing
from /etc/pam_ldap.conf

This was NOT the case on my system, but you should probably check.

Now check that your configuration is good, e.g. by trying a login using
ssh.

If this succeeds, you are probably home free.

In not, you could rerun the configration dialog using the command:

dpkg-reconfigure libpam-ldap

If problems prevail, get help on IRC or by email to
