Hello,
I've made some minor changes to authenticate method using UNIX
username/password,
either from local passwd files or other source stated in nsswitch.conf. The
new
method can be used by changing the userPassword field to something like this:
userPassword: {EXT}username
where the password of "username" will be used for authentication.
For your information.
Thanks,
Rgds,
ST Wong
