[Bug 1229713] Re: nslcd auto-configuration disregards existing nslcd.conf

2014-08-14 Thread Simon Fraser
Luckily, while the original machine I used for testing has gone, another one exhibited these symptoms just recently. I can confirm that 'debconf- show nslcd' shows the AD server found in DNS. I agree that Rafael's new package seems like it will fix the issue. Thanks! -- You received this bug noti

2013-09-24 Thread Simon Fraser
Public bug reported: We have nslcd already installed, with /etc/nslcd.conf listing our LDAP servers. We also have an Active Directory server installed, which servers the DNS SRV entries to exist in order to function properly. Our Ubuntu servers do not use AD, however, and so when nslcd is upgraded

This appears to be the same bug as: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=658739 so the fault is actually in gnutls for using libgcrypt (which I believe was the same library that caused libnss-ldap to stop working for ldaps:// in the last release, forcing people to use libnss-ldapd ins

2011-11-30 Thread Simon Fraser
Fridtjof: Found a workaround. It's to remove libnss-ldap and use libnss- ldapd instead. This appears to be related to the privileges libgcrypt ends up with, causing it to fail with direct connections. The daemon supplied with libnss-ldapd (and libpam-ldapd) doesn't drop these privileges. Still shou
