Question: how to use an LDAP backend for logins

[Mario Olimpio de Menezes <mario@curiango.ipen.br>]

Hi Joseph,
	
	Well, I'm not answering your question but asking you: How to use
an LDAP backend for logins?
	What I have: one server with shadow.
	What I want: to put 2 workstations with central authentication
and exported home directory?
	I have tried (not hardly) nis but I couldn't get it to work.
Mainly because the howto says you need a static hosts files for name
resolution and I already have a dns running with dynamic dhcp updates.
	Is it possible to use LDAP in this situation?
	Thanks,
