Re: [webmin-l] Webmin/ Usermin login with LDAP user help...

[Jamie Cameron <jcameron@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Make sure you have the Authen::PAM perl module installed, pam-LDAP and  
nss-LDAP integration installed, and that /etc/pam.d/usermin is setup  
to use LDAP. Webmin's LDAP Client module can help with some of this...
