Name : nss_ldap
Version : 207
Release : 6
Summary : NSS library and PAM module for LDAP.
Description :
This package includes two LDAP access clients: nss_ldap and pam_ldap. Nss_ldap is a set of C library extensions that allow X.500 and LDAP directory servers to be used as a primary source of aliases, ethers, groups, hosts, networks, protocol, users, RPCs, services, and shadow passwords (instead of or in addition to using flat files or NIS).

Pam_ldap is a module for Linux-PAM that supports password changes, V2 clients, Netscape's SSL, ypldapd, Netscape Directory Server password policies, access authorization, and crypted hashes.



---------------------------------------------------------------------

Update Information:

The nss_ldap package included in Fedora Core 1 would fail to perform schema mapping due to an incompatibility with newer versions of Berkeley DB, such as the one with which it was built. This incompatibility was fixed upstream in version 210, and is fixed in this update.
