Hi Rocael,

can you post some information on what you did exactly, as we need it in Darmstadt to authenticate against LDAP and sadly currently both ns_pam and ns_ldap modules fail (the former with an ad_raise notfound, the latter with "no available pools" though we copied the information from you).

Hello Malte,
are you using oracle?
strange, the no available pools is something that I haven't found yet in our prod/dev servers....

where did you get the ns_ldap module?

here's our config.tcl nsldap section:

#
# ldap pool ldap
#

ns_section "ns/ldap/pool/ldap"
ns_param user "cn=Manager, o=Your University"
ns_param password "yourpass"
ns_param host "ldap.server.edu"
ns_param connections 1
ns_param verbose On

#
# ldap pools
#
ns_section "ns/ldap/pools"
ns_param ldap ldap

#
# ldap default pool
#
ns_section "ns/server/${server}/ldap"
ns_param Pools *
ns_param DefaultPool ldap

are you trying direct call to ns_ldap or through acs-authentication authority?
