I have not added any IP rules or firewalls for the clients. There is nothing in my system that would restrict an IP. I am sure that the ldap query is not blocked, because in that case 'ldapsearch' or 'getent passwd' would not have shown me the ldap users. What is the selinux difference that I need to check, is there any config files for that?
The /var/log/secure shows authentication failed for invalid user error when I try to ssh using the ldap users. There is no other errors in the logs.
