Hello pam_ldap experts,

Is it necessary to have the users entries on the database to must belong to at least to the top, posixAccount and shadowAccount objectclasses (in the LDIF file format which had been migrated to the ldap server machine) for  successful authentication!!!

For an example, in my case the ldif file, for the user "jmaan" is as shown below with all the three must object classes, but however exlcuded the shadowAccount class atrributes, as while importing the file, it was not successful.

/* jmaan's ldif file*/

dn: uid=jm,dc=nits,dc=ac,dc=in
uid: jm
cn: jm
objectClass: top
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: shadowAccount
userPassword: $1$HfJP5QCH$tgAXBFRrfEGoug2B55dDT1
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 999
gidNumber: 999
homeDirectory: /home/jm


Please comment on this?

I cannot see any reason for unsuccessful authentication ?

Regards,

Jyotishmaan Ray
