<header>LDAP Server Configuration</header>
This page allows you to select the LDAP server that this client system will
contact to in order to fetch user and group information. The most important
field is the <b>LDAP server hostnames</b>, into which you must enter the
hostname or IP address of the LDAP server on your network. If you have more
than one replicated server, they can all be entered here. <p>
The <b>Login for non-root users</b> and <b>Password for non-root users</b>
fields must be filled in with a username and password accepted by the LDAP
server, respectively. The login will typically be an LDAP distinguished
name, like <i>cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com</i>.<p>
Because this login and password is visible to all Unix users on your system,
it is typically set to that of a LDAP user with limited privileges (such as
read-only access, and no ability to view passwords). Because passwords do
need to be checked in some situations, the <b>Login for root user</b> and
<b>Password for root user</b> fields should be set to an LDAP username and
password who has read access to the entire LDAP server. This second password
is stored in a file that is only readable by the <tt>root</tt> user, and
thus is secure from regular un-trusted Unix users. <p>
