[gentoo-user] LDAP with no privileged login

[Leandro Melo de Sales]

Hi list,

  I'm configured a LDAP server to be used as a users database. Now, I
want to setup linux box clients to auth against LDAP server. I
installed ldap-pam and ldap-nss. In /etc/ldap.conf file I have to
inform rootdn password. What is the best way to do this since the
configuration file has to be readable to all. I think that use
privileged login in this situation (even if I use /etc/ldap.secret
file) is dangerous. So, should I created a LDAP user just to be used
as a rootdn login? how can I create a nonprivileged login?

Thank you,

Leandro.
