I see the client machine problem as well. The problem appear to be that something in the boot process uses libnss- ldap before the network is up and the machine hangs.
This can be worked-around with 'bind_policy soft' in /etc/libnss- ldap.conf, but then mounting an NFS filesistem (/home) fails. I have no clue on how upstart work so I could not debug this problem further. -- slapd starts too late, causing X startup problems https://launchpad.net/bugs/68271 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
