Description Stanislav Brabec 2008-06-18 15:55:43 UTC
Fate#302863 (suggest convenient names for LDAP, Kerberos, NFS, NTP,...) is declared as done.

But it seems to not work in LDAP client configuration:

ldap.suse.cz alias exists and correctly answers to both ping and ldap queries (with TLS disabled) in our intranet.

But is not offered by default and even Find button does not offer this alias.

In feature 302863 you can see that it was closed after it was done for Kerberos and NTP, but not for LDAP. For LDAP, we agreed on the fact that having the option for doing SLP search for real LDAP server is better than such guessing.

Also there exists some other feature for discovering the servers via DNS so I think this would be a preferred solution and guessing won't be needed -> invalid.

But this is caused by a configuraton of our SLP server...
