Geoff!

I was meaning to write and thank everyone on the list, yes, including
you, for everything.

I was so busy today, I haven't had the chance to read my mail until now
(19:21 CEST for me).

Oi'll tell 'ee.

A little while ago I had a simple non-everything ldap server working for
Evo, with gdbm and full schemas that worked with Evo but did little
else.

Thanks to "everyone" on this list, including you with your example
(which I copied verbatim after checking, couldn't believe that it could
work with my RH 7.2 system), I now have a full-blown bdb 4 2.1.3 thingy
with pam_ldap-based users and everything. Still have to get pam_ldap
working for gdm, su etc, but I'll ask about this later.

Geoff, it's all a question of getting used to new things. For me
openldap is *utter magic* - though I've been a sysadmin for many years,
I'm only just starting on ldap now. I need it for so many things.

So, thanks "everyone", thanks Geoff and I'm sorry I blew my top :c)

I seriously find this one of the best and most helpful lists out there.

Best,

Tony
