OK, so i was expecting some base which are binding it to FDS.....but did not find here any such thing...which gives an impression that system-config-authentication is not working proberly in CentOS5.3. My assumption may be wrong....
 
so if i put some entry in this like (base dc=vfds,dc=local)...and then boot the client machine... can i expect it workin then.....
 
waiting for the advise....in the mean time i am rebooting the machine....
 
many thanks in advance...

Thanks for a quick reply.

Client IP address is 192.168.5.4
yes these files are from client only.

all files seem correct , (in system-auth the interresting line are with pam_ldap.so)
So may be, the base to search in the tree are misconfigured in the /etc/ldap.conf

you previously show the /etc/ldap.conf :

uri ldap://192.168.5.1 <http://192.168.5.1>
ssl no
tls_cacertdir /etc/openldap/cacerts
pam_password md5

can you show the ouptut of the command :
grep base /etc/ldap.conf
with only the line that are uncommented , normaly this will show the distinguished name of the search base.
and this must correspond with the tree in your FDS

   hi,

   ok , I suppose the ip adress of the server is  192.168.5.1 (right ?)
   and you have a client (a centos 5.3)  with unknow to us  ip address.

   I suppose the nsswitch.conf and /etc/ldap.conf below is on the
   client so it is correct

   Then can you show the files /etc/pam.d/system-auth and
   /etc/pam.d/login  that are on the client please

   then can you tell us  what is the uid of the user test01 in the FDS

       yes, my nsswitch.conf file is as below.

          Hello

          Is it ldap://ldap.vfds.local correct?
          Please, try this command:

          ping ldap.vfds.local

          If pinging then try to use command getent to check that
       ldap users are
          present in your system.
          getent passwd

          If not pinging, then you need to use FQDN or ip-address,
       like this:

          ldap://1.2.3.4 <http://1.2.3.4> <http://1.2.3.4>
          ldap://example.com <http://example.com> <http://example.com>
