Hi! |

I configured my gentoo server box to authenticate users through LDAP |
| 4 |
(nsswicth+pam_ldap). Everything are working fine and now I want to run |
| 5 |
a ypserv and as a result I want the nis clients authenticating against |
| 6 |
my server. I following the instructions in |
| 7 |
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_NIS but the clients (gentoo and |
| 8 |
ubuntu boxes) don't find the ypserver, any clue? |
| 9 |
I was planning to make the clients authentication directly to LDAP |
| 10 |
server, but in this case I have to install pam_ldap and create a |
| 11 |
/etc/ldap.conf and put ldap bindpw into this file or in |
| 12 |
/etc/ldap.secret. Even if I protect it with 600 the use can get this |
| 13 |
file installing a windows application (the client machines have dual |
| 14 |
boot) that read ext3 partitions and read the files, finally getting |
| 15 |
the bindpw. Any comment about this? Am I thinking wrong about that? |

Thank you. BTW, all suggestion will be greatfully accepted. |
