Re: [SSI-users] x-windows/gdm afs ldap pam .......

[Miguel F. <mig...@gm...>]

Hi,

My sugestion won't solve the gdm problem, but might enable you to use
grafical logins..

Well, I had problems with LDAP accounts + gdm, tried kdm and didn't had
them..
I assumed that the fault was with gdm that didn't handled that situation
well enough.

The systems were gentoo systems, with pam_ldap + openldap + ssl. ssh or
tty/console logins worked without a hich.. same with KDM, gdm hanged.

My suggestion is to try loggin in with XDM, kdm, and other grafical login
programs, see if you have better luck.

best regards,
