Thread: Can I configure to authenticate PGSQL 7.3.4 by LDAP

Hi all,
I'm using Open LDAP in RedHat Linux 9.0. Now, I would like to setup
PGSQL 7.3.4 using authentication by Open LDAP. Can I do that? And how?

Use PAM authentication and set up PAM to authenticate through LDAP.

Dear Peter,
I' m a new user of Linux and PostgreSQL, I have used PAM for Linux
System, SendMail, but I don't know how to do with PostgreSQL. Please
give me where can I get documents about this.

Thanks.

Thach.
