Pam_ldap module on suse 7.0

["Sathiamoorthy Balasubramaniyan (ext_TCS)" <Balasubramaniyan.Sathiamoorthy.ext_TCS@ts.siemens.de>]

Hi all,

I had posted a similar question on PAM and LDAP on pamldap mailing list but
nobody seems to respond.
I wonder if the pamldap list is still active or not. 
And i apologize if iam misusing this list.

I'm trying to use pam_ldap and nss_ldap with SuSE Linux 7.0 for user
authentication against Netscape LDAP server.

I configured pam, nsswitch and openldap on Suse Linux for user
authentication , but
now I get the message 
"Cannot make/remove an entry for the specified session" whenever an user
defined in LDAP tries to login. 

A strange thing is that if the user exists in /etc/passwd file (with blank
password), then the user can login with the password from the ldap db.

Anyone knows, what could be the problem?

Thanks in Advance,
Bala S
