I'm writing to you (with CC: to mailing list) because you are maintainers of `security/pam_ldap' and `net/nss_ldap' ports. I'm surprising, why these ports are inconsistent in config files? First of all, nss_ldap config is ${PREFIX}/etc/nss_ldap.conf, it looks sane enough, but "pam_*" setting are surprise. But pam_ldap uses ${PREFIX}/etc/ldap.conf! It is not sane, IMHO. It could be easily mistaken for ${PREFIX}/etc/oprnldap/ldap.conf. Why it is not pam_ldap.conf?! Why these modules doesn';t use common config (I have one hardlinked to other and it works)?! I understand, that here could be situations when nss_ldap and pam_ldap needs different configs (but, I suppose, it is VERY rare situations), but, may be, have options on both ports to use common config, which will be turned on by default, and, in any case, use pam_ldap.conf for pam_ldap? --=20 // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov
