Please let me know. The transcripts of the > /var/log/messages are shown as below:- 1. which (uncommented) lines are in /etc/ldap.conf at the moment? egrep -v '^($|#)' /etc/ldap.conf 2. When you configured your client box to use your new LDAP server, how did you do that? Using the GUI? If so, make sure you have enabled LDAP on both the "User Information" and "Authentication" tabs - otherwise you will be using LDAP as an NSS service like NIS. 3. can you run ldapsearch using that username and password? ldapsearch -xW -D 'uid=jmaan,stornt=non-teach,bn=compcen,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in' - -h 'your.ldap.server' -b 'bn=compcen,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in' 4. also, what exactly is 'stornt=non-teach' ? I don't recognise that attribute name. Are you using a custom schema? 5. Have you looked in the logs on the LDAP server itself? You may want to increase the loglevel (and maybe redirect local4.* to a separate logfile) Regards Stuart - -- Stuart Sears RHCA etc "There's a very fine line between stupid and clever." - Nigel Tufnel / Derek Smalls -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHXAbwamPtx1brPQ4RAjJKAJ400eJbPHZdyy1CgM0HU+cddcr1eACfUtVK aRjnGzKAvje9PK3Ujcx4t44= =UBoy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
