Description

nss-pam-ldapd, a Name Service Switch (NSS) module and Pluggable Authentication Module (PAM) that allows your LDAP server to provide user account, group, host name, alias, netgroup, and basically any other information that you would normally get from /etc flat files or NIS. It also allows you to do authentication to an LDAP server.

Key differences from nss_ldap: * lighter NSS library * lighter PAM library * simpler internal semantics * clear separation between NSS, PAM and LDAP code (the server part could easily be implemented in another language) * less connections to the LDAP server

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 0.9.13, as upstream numbers it.

Message after installing

LDAP and nslcd daemon parameters should be set in:
/usr/local/etc/nslcd.conf.

When upgrading review /usr/local/etc/nslcd.conf.sample for
additional or changed parameters.

WARNING: Be sure to set uid and gid configuration parameters to make nslcd run under unprivileged user.

To start nslcd add nslcd_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and run:

  # service nslcd start

If you also want to supervise the nslcd daemon
add nslcd_supervisor="YES" to rc.conf as well.

See the comments in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/nslcd for additional tunables.
