Hummm, apparently Canonical is using the let's-wait-until-the-Ubuntu- version-mentioned-in-the-bug-report-gets-EOL-so-we-can-close-the-bug- without-fixing-anything" method for closing bug reports...
After confirming this bug for 2 current releases I give up. Let the bug remain and let's keep this bug report closed pretending someone at Canonical would give a damn if it were reported for a current release. Thanks for your time, attention and help. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to accountsservice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1676977 Title: Login prompt never presented with ldap login and ldapi set with a name. Status in accountsservice package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libpam-ldap package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I have a ldap login configuration that has worked with several Ubuntu versions. Unfortunately it doesn't work with 16.10. If I left my ldapi setting using a name as I used to, the login prompt never appears. If I change the ldapi setting to the IP of the authentication server, the login works perfectly. The authentication server name resolution works fine on 16.10 (after login) and on previous version even during login. It seems to me my problem is related to some ordering issue.
