Description Ulrich Windl 2005-08-29 06:39:16 UTC 
I noticed when I configure a new installation to use LDAP, an LDAP server on
localhost is suggested and accepted, but YaST does not ask about a user to
create, nor does it setup or start an LDAP server on localhost. If I create a
user later using YaST, the user (silently) ends up in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow.
Is this the way it's supposed to work?

What would you expect?

If you want to configure LDAP server, you must do it yourself (e.g. with
yast2-ldap-server module).

In users module, you should know which kind of users are you creating - it is
indicated as "Filter" in users summary page.
