Re: [PLUG] using OpenLDAP with Active Directory


ldapsearch is usually part of the openldap client package. The
/etc/ldap.conf is usually used by the nss_ldap package (the nss/pam
service). They're only  related to each other in name. One is a
userspace tool to interact with ldap, the other is system level.

Now that you know what to use to bind, try hooking up the nss_ldap
settings to your ldap.conf and logging in. You'll need to turn up
logging and watch your syslog to debug things.
