[Fedora-directory-users] ssh login fail ~ a gottha on RHAS4

[Steven Jones]

While setting up a second AS4 client I ran authconfig-gtk and started to
compare the before and after ldap.conf files, only to find I could not
see any differences, doing a diff proved it. I even > ldap.conf the file
to zero it and authconfig-gtk did not write a thing....

So I ran authconfig instead and this correctly edited the ldap.conf and
ssh worked straight off (after a sshd re-start)....

So anyone out there trying to setup a client using authconfig-gtk should
probably try/stick to authconfig instead.
