Package: nslcd Version: 0.9.4-3 Severity: normal Hi,
we deploy all our servers with a configuration like this: uri ldap://127.0.0.1 uri ldaps://ldap1.domain.de/ uri ldaps://ldap2.domain.de/ usually there is no local LDAP daemon running, so it will just fail over to ldap1, but for important systems like gateways we just deploy a local replica which is automatically used. Due to a local configuration error we had a new slapd deployed on a server that requires authentication (our normal servers don't, yet). nslcd tried to connect to the server (which was unwilling to perform) but did not fail over to the other servers. Sep 14 10:37:18 hostname nslcd[24702]: [8b4567] <passwd="username"> ldap_result() failed: Server is unwilling to perform: authentication required I think "unwilling to perform" can has other causes as well and should trigger a failover to another server.
