nss_ldap - NSS library and PAM module for LDAP.

Description:

This package includes two LDAP access clients: nss_ldap and pam_ldap.
Nss_ldap is a set of C library extensions that allow X.500 and LDAP
directory servers to be used as a primary source of aliases, ethers,
groups, hosts, networks, protocol, users, RPCs, services, and shadow
passwords (instead of or in addition to using flat files or NIS).

Pam_ldap is a module for Linux-PAM that supports password changes, V2
clients, Netscape's SSL, ypldapd, Netscape Directory Server password
policies, access authorization, and crypted hashes.

Packages

- add Ross Tyler's patch to always require authentication during password
  change requests for expired passwords, so that modules which check password
  quality (pam_cracklib) will always have the old password on-hand to examine
  as well (#667758)
