LDAP, checkpwnam and PDC
...machine account
was created, but Windows said user name cannot be found.
I resolved this by adding ldap to /etc/nsswitch.conf, but this has the
side effect of allowing ldap users to login to the server via SSH.
Whilst I can understand the need for LDAP users to be accessible to the
system, i.e. checkpwnam etc for permisisons, I don't want users to be
able to login to anywhere except the client Windows 2000/XP boxes.
People (only 3) who can login via SSH already have "real" user accounts
in /etc/passwd etc.
Is there a way to stop this being allowed?
Thanks.
