Public bug reported: I'm using LDAP for user accounts and kerberos5 for authentication. This works well as long as the network is up. One of the machines is a laptop however, it has both local users and LDAP users. When the LDAP server is not reachable, the laptop mostly fails to boot up, hanging at each retry on other services.
This makes Ubuntu very hard to integrate in a corporate or even elaborate SOHO environment where there is a real need for network authenticated users. Packages affected would be libnss-ldap, nscd and nss in general. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- NetworkAuthentication works badly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160408 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
