Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libpam-ldap
Many "connection_read(): no connection!" warnings are written to /var/log/debug and /var/log/syslog by slapd. However, as stated at http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200811/msg00079.html , this is not a problem with slapd, but a client that is disconnecting without first unbinding. The suspect client is pam_ldap.so, part of libpam-ldap, when the system is configured for LDAP client authentication, as per http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html #openldap-auth-config . It is easily reproduced when using "sudo login", with either valid or invalid credentials against LDAP. It is also reproduced using "su <user>", but apparently only when an invalid password, etc., does not result in a valid login. I tried adding some logging into pam_ldap.c and recompiling, and it shows that ldap_unbind is being called from _pam_ldap_cleanup_session , but the warnings still are produced.
