(My guess is that this may be a test run for a larger effort that will span several servers if successful.)<br><br> As requested, I have created the directory structure, added 'ldap' to the nsswitch.conf file, & created the test user accounts/groups in LDAP by using a .ldif file - but at this point, I'm stuck. I really have no idea how to "make the connection/association" between the filesystem structure & the LDAP UIDs/GIDs. I have google'd until my eyes have crossed, I've studied LDAP & I'm reasonably comfortable <em>(at least in *THEORY*)</em> with writing the ACLs in LDAP - but I haven't seemed to find anything that tells me how to connect the two "subsystems". I may be over-thinking it, but I don't know. The OS is RHEL 6.x.<br><br> I'd *sure* be grateful for any help that some kind soul could provide...<br><br>Thanks in advance.</div></div></body></html>
