1 Ok, I have recently gotten LDAP working for most of the stuff I want it to do,
2 and proceeded to move authentication to it. In doing so I have discovered that
3 OpenSSH does not play nice with PAM + LDAP.

5 >From what I have gathered from preliminary google digging is that the
6 priviledge seperation rewrite broke PAM pretty severely. None of the password
7 expiry stuff works anymore, and neither does the create home dirs option.

9 I've already tried simply disabling the PrivSep stuff, but the problem goes
10 deeper than that, so it doesn't help. Everything else (telnet/ftp/etc) works
11 fine, it's only ssh that's giving me fits.
12
13 I'm sure I'm not the only one with a setup like this. If someone else
14 on the list is running in a configuration of this nature and has gotten
15 ssh working, I'd appreciate a pointer to the information that got you past
16 this.

18 Thanks.

21 Treat root like a loaded gun. Don't pull it out unless you mean to use it.
22 If you mean to use it make sure you have a clear target and put it right
23 back in the holster as soon as you're done.
