pam_ldap / ldap authentication

[Schelstraete Bart_1]

Hello,

Is there somebody who is using pam_ldap?
I want to authenticate the users against a LDAP server, without changing something on the current ldap. (so LDAP-UX is not an option).

I tried pam_ldap from padl, but after I installed it, the syslog complains the he couldn't open this file. (while it exists, and the file permissions are correct).
Now is my question: Is somebody using that pam_ldap on a HP-UX 11i , or is their another ways to authenticate agians an ldap server?

We are using LDAP/UX and sharing our burden with a certain vendor who has yet to put out a quality product since it's Fortran 77.

We finally gave up trying to make the Joint environment work for several reasons.

Unix uses permissions in a manner that another OS not Novell cannot really handle.

We tried another way using custom socket routines that worked.

It worked, but the Upper Level management did't like homegrown code for the solution when it wasn't through the normal channels of the development group. code reviews, flowcharting, walkthroughs of pseudocode. I think in C. Sorry I can't write in English...
