Hi,
  two questions actually...
  
1) Where is the PADL pamldap mail list archived.  The welcome msg to this list 
gives: http://lists.padl.com/archive/pamldap/threads.html.  There are only about 
9 msgs there and the latest is dated 28 Jan 2000.  So they're obviously not 
being archived to that site.

2) I've managed to get mostly everything running quite nicely with the pamldap 
module under Solaris7, talking to my openldap server.  The authentication seems 
fine.  I'm just looking at openssh to see if that will handle my ssh 
authentication too.  However, I cannot seem to change either local or ldap 
passwords.  My setup is that root has a password in /etc/shadow, but my other 
test users have only LDAP passwords (i.e their entry in /etc/shadow is *LK*). My 
/etc/nsswitch.conf file has:
	passwd:     files ldap
and I have installed the nss-ldap module.  My /etc/pam.conf file contains the 
following related to passwords:
	other   password required /usr/lib/security/pam_ldap.so
	other   password required /usr/lib/security/pam_unix.so.1 use_first_pass
When I try to change the root p/w I get:
	root@heracles# passwd root
	Permission denied
And when I try to change a user p/w I get:
	sme@heracles:<11:17> passwd sme
	Enter login(LDAP) password: 
	New password: 
	Re-enter new password: 
	Segmentation fault
I've tried a few variations in the pam.conf file but none seem to work. 

Any pointers in the right direction would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance
Stephen Meatheringham
