Ah, now we are getting back to something actually relevant to fedora. It would be really nice if a packaged LDAP configuration worked out of the box and included the schemas needed for a posix account, a samba account, and the mail delivery stuff that sendmail and postfix can use for distributing mail with user@domain addressing across multiple machines, along with tools to manage the database. Does this exist somewhere? All the versions I've seen involve customizing the schemas and I've always been afraid that as soon as I did that a working but incompatible version would become part of the distribution. -- Les Mikesell les@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
