That's exactly what I tried today to set up, but I didn't get it really to work yet. But try to install slapd (openldapd) and try to get the authentication done with libpam-ldap in adition to the passwd-authentication. The idea behind the pam-stuff is that the authentication works transparently, so you have not to change anything, just configure pam right. But I don't now how far this goes. I think some more work is to be done, like make that exim will get the correct users for mail delivery, and I don't think that adduser, passwd ... will just work on ldap. Does anyone know more about this? One more thing: in the testing distribution there isn't yet the openldap version 2.x. If you need ldap-v3 support, you'll need v2.x, maybe it is in unstable?Hi. I'm going to be running a moderately sized network, and I was wondering how difficult it would be to setup ldap as teh authentication for it?
Good luck, Tibor
