Forcing use of nscd is a non-starter at many sites. Aside from cache staleness issues, and nscd's well known instability, there's also the issue that nscd doesn't intercept get*ent enumerations so things will still crash depending on which nsswitch functions an app calls.
It would make sense to use nettle on the newer releases that support it, but keep the patch in place otherwise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to libnss-ldap in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423252 Title: NSS using LDAP+SSL breaks setuid applications like su, sudo, apache2 suexec, and atd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/423252/+subscriptions -- 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
