Webmin 1.150, Fedora Core 1:
It appears that the user_base setting is not correctly
read if it is specified in the NSS LDAP file.
Specifically, I have the NSS LDAP configuration file
set to /etc/ldap.conf (RedHat/Fedora). If I add the line
user_base ou=people,dc=my,dc=domain,dc=edu
to this file, and configure Webmin ldap_useradmin to
get the "Base for Users" from the NSS config file, I
get the error
Failed to search for users under ou=people, : invalid DN
as if it is only reading up to the first comma.
Setting the user base to the same value manually in the
"Module Config" page works fine.
Logged In: YES
user_id=129364
Is the option nss_base_passwd set in your ldap.conf file
too? It will be used instead of user_base if set ..
