Authenfication client via Kerberos (Heimdal) and LDAP backend

To use the provided authenfication mechanism from g00se.org on g00se.org :D I installed libpam-heimdal and configured nss. Kerberos configuration: cat /etc/krb5.conf [libdefaults] default_realm = G00SE.ORG default_keytab_name = /etc/krb5.keytab ticket_lifetime = 28800 default_etypes = des3-hmac-sha1 des-cbc-crc des-cbc-md5 default_etypes_des = des3-hmac-sha1 des-cbc-crc des-cbc-md5 [realms] G00SE.ORG = { kdc = g00se.org admin_server = g00se.org } [domain_realm] g00se.org = G00SE.ORG .g00se.org = G00SE.ORG The pam configuration to use the heimdal KDC: cat /etc/pam.d/kerberos #@include common-auth #@include common-account auth required pam_krb5.so account required pam_krb5.so Configuration of the nss-ldap plugin: cat /etc/libnss-ldap.conf uri ldaps://g00se.org/ ldap_version 3 base dc=g00se,dc=org scope sub pam_filter objectclass=account pam_login_attribute uid pam_min_uid 1000 pam_max_uid 2000 nss_base_passwd ou=People,dc=g00se,dc=org?one nss_base_group ou=group,dc=g00se,dc=org?oneh Let nss know that there is a second source which provide authorisation data. cat /etc/nsswitch.conf passwd: compat ldap group: compat ldap That's all! As root you can now check if everything runs: getent passwd and you will see all your local accounts and the provided central ones! I hope everything is cool!!!
