[SunHELP] SUMMARY: pam_ldap: Cannot contact LDAP server

Thanks the reply from

Please excuse my lacking of knowledge.

The problem is the stunnel doesn't start automatically after reboot. After
I start the stunnel, the problem solved.
For the warning I got this morning, I still need to check.

Thanks!

Mei

Can anyone shed a light?

And also, my Pam authentication broken after I update openssh to 3.7.1p2.
I finallygot it fixed. But when yesterday, a guy from SUN replaced a bad
memory
card and wereboot the machine. I found I only can login as a root but not a
normal
user. Theerror message is like this:
