You should start using nscd (or your platform equivilant,) which will  
at least allow your name service lookups to complete.  If you are  
using OpenLDAP, ensure that you have soft_bind set on the clients.

If you are using nss_ldap, I recommend looking at nss_ldapd 
(http://ch.tudelft.nl/~arthur/nss-ldapd/design.html 
) as a super nice replacement.
