Solaris native LDAP client(using netgroups)

If you want to define list of users and groups which are permited to use your exact host you need "netgroup" feature.

To use it in Solaris 10 it is necessary to:
1. Use "compat" in /etc/nsswitch.conf

#passwd: files ldap
#group: files ldap

passwd: compat
passwd_compat: ldap

group: compat
group_compat: ldap

2. Have installed proper pam modules (out of box on Solaris 10) and proper pam.conf

#
# Authentication management
#
# login service (explicit because of pam_dial_auth)
#
login auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1

#

#
other session required pam_unix_session.so.1
#
# Default definition for Password management
# Used when service name is not explicitly mentioned for password management
#
other password required pam_dhkeys.so.1
other password requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1
other password requisite pam_authtok_check.so.1
other password required pam_authtok_store.so.1 server_policy
#
# Support for Kerberos V5 authentication and example configurations can
# be found in the pam_krb5(5) man page under the "EXAMPLES" section.

3. Proper content in LDAP
ldapaddent -a simple -D "cn=Directory Manager" -f /etc/netgroup netgroup

4. You have to attach groupname to the end of your passwd and shadow files:
Echo "+@groupname:x:::::" >>/etc/passwd
pwconv

5. Test if your netgroups and users works properly:
getent passwd
getent shadow

6. You will not be able to use "compat" if havn't defined groups, if don't need them use simple "ldap" declaration in nsswitch.conf!
