Re: [courier-users] question about pam usage with authldap

This is a MIME GnuPG-signed message. If you see this text, it means that
your E-mail or Usenet software does not support MIME signed messages.
The Internet standard for MIME PGP messages, RFC 2015, was published in 1996.
To open this message correctly you will need to install E-mail or Usenet
software that supports modern Internet standards.

It doesn't matter what they are. Whatever they are, authdaemon needs to
convert them to numerical values via getpwname() and getgrname().

You might be able to suppress LDAP queries by putting the global username
and groupname in your passwd and group file, then listing "files" in
nsswitch before ldap, so that the passwd/group files are searched first,
before hitting ldap.

authlib uses the LDAP setting for all authentication requests.
