Chicken & Egg. That's why I need to use soft bind+timeout on my (disconnected) laptop here. > Oct 26 11:59:08 gauss kernel: Oct 26 11:59:08 gauss cron[13480]: nss_ldap: > could not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable > Oct 26 12:41:44 gauss kernel: Oct 26 12:41:44 gauss login: nss_ldap: could > not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable That seems broken then. Is slapd running? Can you ldapsearch -Lx -h localhost? What's /var/log/debug.log telling you? Can you id(1) some ldap users? Does the output of 'getent group' and 'getent passwd' look reasonable? > One point: what is about compile time options of OpenLDAP?

You would need certificates before it can even possibly start working anyways. > nss_ldap-1.257 <<=== > openldap-client-2.3.38 > openldap-server-2.3.38 > pam_ldap-1.8.2 My other computer is running with nss_ldap-1.257 and showing no problems either.
