I know OpenBSD does not have NSS/PAM like FreeBSD does, so I'm trying to investigate how quick and easy it would be to switch our solution to OpenBSD. Well, PAM is not included with OpenBSD which uses bsd_auth instead. You can use the login_ldap port (/usr/ports/sysutils/login_ldap) to authenticate against an LDAP server just like you would do with PAM. However, there's no clean way to use an LDAP server to get user info under OpenBSD like you would do under FreeBSD/Linux with nss_ldap. Regards, Antoine

[ smtp (sendmail) ][ imaps/pop3s (cyrus-imapd) ] | | | | | | - | | [ cyrus-sasl (saslauthd)] | | [OpenLDAP] This way you get LDAP-based authentication for all the email services. Sendmail is in base, cyrus-imapd and cyrus-sasl are in ports, aswell as OpenLDAP.

You may want to check out login_ldap from ports (sysutils/login_ldap) which uses BSD auth present in OpenBSD. See how you like it and give it a test run, especially before you decide to move things over. Cheers, Rogier -- If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there.
Re: LDAP Support
Have you considered there might be a problem with the hardware and not the OS. maybe memory has become faulty. Ive got 62 FreeBSD 5.4 Servers running and they dont crash. Maybe you are using a piece of incompatible hardward, or something may have started to show signs of becoming faulty. Before you decide to rip out the OS and have potentially the same problem with OpenBSD or NetBSD, be sure its not something other then the OS. If you need some help in maybe trouble shooting the issue, feel free to post the points here. Thanks for you response. I am pretty sure this is the known ttwakeup bug in FreeBSD, which is a known bug that has not been fixed. Occurs on SMP machines with high traffic. Thats why I was considering switching Operating Systems. -Matt

Re: LDAP Support
Try to search at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com on this subject. OpenBSD have BSD-auth.
