Passwords on FreeBSD



Hi,

I'd like to use an ldap server for user authentication on a FreeBSD
machine. I installed nss-pam-ldapd-0.8.14_3 and followed the installation
instructions from the webpage.
I can request user information:

---
~ # getent passwd gekueh
gekueh:x:1681:5001:Gerrit Kuehn:/data/home/gekueh:/bin/bash
---

I can log in successfully via ssh using key authentication, and I can use
"su - gekueh" successfully when I am root.
However, everything requiring my to enter a password appears to fail with
some error message like this:

---
May 25 11:04:28 nslcd[64168]: [d9b7c3] <authc="gekueh">
uid=gekueh,cn=users,dc=aei,dc=mpg,dc=de: lookup failed: Invalid
credentials
May 25 11:04:28 sshd[64180]: error: PAM: authentication
error for gekueh from ff5
---


Any hints what might be wrong here? Google turned up with nothing useful
so far for me.
