+<PRE>
+I've been working on getting an ldap server working in Mageia 2,
+and have a strange error, that I'm not sure how to debug.
+
+I have two users. The user dave existed before adding the ldap
+server, and is defined in both /etc/passwd (group and shadow too),
+as well as in the ldap database. The user qatest is only defined
+in the ldap database.
+
+I've been using the instructions from
+<A HREF="http://linsec.ca/Using_OpenLDAP_for_User_Authentication#Configuring_PAM_to_use_LDAP">http://linsec.ca/Using_OpenLDAP_for_User_Authentication#Configuring_PAM_to_use_LDAP</A>
+
+In the auth section of /etc/pam.d/system-auth, if I use
+auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so likeauth nullok
+both users are listed by gdm, but only the qatest user can login,
+and the &quot;su -&quot; command fails with &quot;unknown pam error&quot;. The user
+dave can login ok in run level 3, and startx, but also cannot use
+the &quot;su -&quot; command, or login via gdm
+
+If I use the line
+auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
+both users can login with run level 3, startx, and use &quot;su -&quot;, but
+the qatest user is not listed by gdm, so can't login with a normal
+run level 5 startup, while the user dave can.
+
+So it looks like I should be using pam_unix, but need something to
+get gdm to list the ldap only user.
+
+Any suggestions?
+
+Thanks, Dave Hodgins
