<header>Services Using LDAP</header>
On a Unix system, various types of system information (such as users, groups
and hostnames) can be looked up from different sources. In the simplest
case these are all taken from local files in the <tt>/etc</tt> directory, such
as <tt>/etc/passwd</tt> for users, <tt>/etc/group</tt> for groups and
<tt>/etc/hosts</tt> for hostnames. <p>
However, it is possible to select additional sources for this data. If your
system is an LDAP client, you will need to use this page to enable the querying
of the configured LDAP server for user and group information. You should be
careful to not turn off the <b>Files</b> data source for users or groups,
as this would hide important system users such as <tt>root</tt>. Instead, all
you should need to do is select <b>LDAP</b> as the second source. <p>
