CVS authentication using LDAP.

[cvs admin]

Hi ,

 

In the present scenario, we have usernames/passwords stored for each repository on the CVS system itself. We would like to use the LDAP server for CVS authentication which stores all the Network login IDs and passwords. This way we wouldn't have to store passwords on the server and users will have to remember only their network/windows login password.

For this, we might have to install some system level packages related to PAM (which supports LDAP authentication).

 

So anybody have any links or docs to configure the LDAP on Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 2)

 

 

Thanks for help in advance.

 

cheers
