Yes, the problem went away, when I installed libldap, which I compiled with openssl.
apt-get source libldap Edit openldap-2.4.21/debian/configure.options to change --with-tls=gnutls to --with-tls=openssl (do not forget to install the libssl-dev package and build-depends for openldap) debian/rules binary-arch That solves the problem on Karmic. I hope it is going to be solved on the LTS. I was intending to use that for corporate workstations. The fewer manual modifications the better. I do not know if this solution would be acceptable for Debian, due to some license concerns. -- NSS using LDAP on Karmic breaks 'su' and 'sudo' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libnss-ldap in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
