Auth failure on Debian LDAP Server with CentOS 5.2 Client


Auth failure on Debian LDAP Server with CentOS 5.2 Client

I am currently facing a strange Problem and I hope somebody is able to give me a hint on that

I've got a Debian Etch Ldap Server which is used for Windows and Linux Clients to auth. So there's a Samba Domain PDC and NFS exports for home directories as well.

The WinXP Clients joined the Samba Domain and so on..
The Ubuntu 8.04 Clients are able to login with their Ldap credentials.

And now the strange part
The CentOS 5.2 client isn't able to login with ldap credentials.
The Error Message is: "user account expired"


On the CentOS 5.2 client I've used system-config-auth (or setup) to adjust the settings in order to communicate with the ldap server.
I also configured the fstab like I've done at the Ubuntu Clients so that /home is mounted from the server.

But if I try to login using GDM or Cli I got this error.
The funny part is if I login as root and issue su <username only existing in ldap) then he switches without any error to this user.

Today I installed the whole bunch in a vmware, so clean install centos 5.2
running system-config-authentifcation - ends in the same result.

Why?

The Error Message is: "user account expired"
