That is the preferred way for SLES, and although it is dramatically different than the traditional suse (opensuse), its pretty neat because ldap is used for everything, users mail (even mail for non users, e.g. people with no login account), dhcp setup, dns, etc. Its pretty cool, because it rounds up all those things that linux has scattered all over and puts it in one place.
Agreed.

It did. Before I had a chance to figure out what LDAP is, let alone how to back it up and restore it again :-)
Welcome to the club. I did three installs of SLES before I was happy with it. Luckily, I had the time to wipe the machine twice and restart. For that price, it should include a printed manual. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
