SSH to LDAP



Hello, I am tiring to get SSHD to connect to a remote LDAP server for
authentication. Can't seem to get the config file right. When I try to
login I get the following error

PAM: authentication thread exited unexpectedly

Using the ID command I can see that my id is in the LDAP server and the
linux can find it.
