I was seeing this same behavior on Lucid and was able to correct this after several steps, the last step seemed to be most important:
1. Create local account with necessary permissions. Login as that user. 2. install and run nscd (using 'sudo apt-get install nscd' and '/etc/init.d/nscd restart') 3. Added the additional line in my ldap.conf 'tls_cacert' (add whichever one was not there - not sure if this step is even necessary) 4. Add the line 'session required pam_mkhomedir.so skel=/etc/skel/' to /etc/pam.d/common-session. This creates the user's home directory and seems to affect the sudo functionality. I now have no difficulty opening an ssh session to the box as an LDAP user and using sudo. I am still using a local /etc/sudoers (not the updated ldap version of sudoers). --paklids -- sudo-ldap not working with ldaps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/115967 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
