Hi,

I admit I don't know Gentoo packaging at all, but would you mind sending the patch in git format-patch format to sssd-devel list? You don't have to subscribe, I can let your e-mail through.

One question about the patch - is xdm in gentoo any generic display manager? Will that make sssd work also with kdm/gdm/.. ?

Hi,

Yeah I will send a patch to the mailing list. But this

said to open a ticket here :) There are a few other problems with the init script, such as @sbidir@ being expanded to ${exec_prefix} which is not defined anywhere in the init script to the init script expects to find sssd in /sbin instead of /usr/sbin. I will fix both and send a proper patch.

as for the xdm, no, xdm is just a wrapper for any login manager. So you configure xdm to use kdm,gdm,lxdm,etc and then you start the xdm init script and it will bring up the login manager of your choice.

Right, we don't receive many tickets with patches :) and I was also hoping there would be some Gentoo user on the list who might help with testing the patch as I don't have even a Gentoo VM around. But given you're the Gentoo maintainer, I don't have a problem with pushing the patch from you without a second review.

OK, thanks a lot!
