[Fedora-directory-users] ssh login fail

Is this the correct rpm to use on RHAS4-32bit-U5?

fedora-ds-1.0.4-1.RHEL4.i386.opt.rpm

Are there any dependencies on the server and clients not installed by
default?  I have everything installed that I can see documented but its
possible I have missed something, or there is an un-documented change as
version upgrade. 

How practical is it to rip out any RHAS4 ldap client modules software
and install Fedora ones?

Are there different password hash mechanisms between versions? If so how
do I check for these?

These might seem odd Q's but I'm kinda desperate as to why I cannot get
the system working....

Yes.

Thanks, I have this page book marked.

Content looks identical to what I have...I have spent days on this
googling with no joy. 

Since a Debian LDAP client also does not work I suspect it is a server
side FDS mis-configuration and not client side, but I could be wrong.
Previously I had a Debian Openldap setup working and that was fine. So
it looks like something is missing/broken in FDS.

I find it interesting that yours is the only reply for what I assume is
a default type of problem....suggests a poor likelihood of the product
being supportable long term....
