I am working towards a proof concept:

I have installed 389-dc on centos and enabled ssl via a self-signed certificate. (after a lot of reading) I can see the port 636 is listening on the centos server

Now, i need to know what do i do to setup client centos machines to login in using userids on the 389-ds server.

I read from some sites telling not to use pam and nss. and only use SSSD. i am new to this side of the world, what is the best recommendation on this area, please advice.

Thanks Jenefa

The config will vary depending on your server, but you essentially need to: a) configure sssd.conf b) run authconfig with arguments that suit your setup

There are plenty of examples online but I found these man pages invaluable to do almost exactly what you are attempting (except with ca-signed certificates): * sssd.conf * sssd * sssd-ldap * (and authconfig --help)

The default file at /etc/sssd/sssd.conf has some useful comments and examples too. LDAP authentication isssd and authconfig hide a lot of the more
