Can't figure out where slpad.conf on Directory Server
There is no slapd.conf on Directory Server. Configuration of Fedora Directory Server is completely different than OpenLDAP. The main configuration file for Fedora DS is /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-yourhost/config/dse.ldif. Be warned that if you edit this file while the server is running, your changes will be lost. Server configuration should be done via the console or by using ldapmodify under cn=config. If you must edit the file, be sure to stop the server first. If the server fails to start or crashes after you make your change, you can revert to dse.ldif.bak or dse.ldif.startOK or even dse_original.ldif if none of those work.
I'm not really sure what the problem is. You should post a question to fedora-directory-users - there are some PAM/ssh experts there who should be able to assist you. You will first have to go to http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Mailing_Lists and follow the directions to sign up for fedora-directory-users before you will be able to post and read your replies.
