Hi Guys, I have a working ldap authentication using Active Directory as the ldap server (not my choice but ...). Linux distro is RHEL 5.8. As I said it works but: When I do a "getent passwd" the users are coming down in uppercase. Still not a problem but when trying to give different roles through sudo I have to list both the lowercase username and the uppercase username in the sudoers file. That is very annoying and adds up to the maintenance. So I'm asking if anybody's seen this before and how did you deal with? I'm not an ldap guru at all. I was able however to follow the on-line manual howto's and configure a working example. Also I know that the sudoers.ladap manual explains how to integrate sudo in active directory but the AD admins don't even want to hear about it. So if anybody has an idea it'll be greatly appreciated. Thank you much, Dumitru -- ===================== Dumitru Ciobanu ciobanu [ dot ] dumitru [ at ] gmail [ dot ] com
