I can also confirm the problem, but I think there are actually two
issues going on.

The first is the fact that systems need to boot when ldap is not
available. The soft option does fix this problem (and the local database
cache should work for mobile users).

The second problem is the order of when the network starts. In the
current debian based distros it is too late. If the ldap server(s) are
online there is no reason why we should have to fail on the query. The
problem is that the network doesn't seem to be fully online. This is
also seen by the fact that I don't always get my NFS mounts to work.
They are in /etc/fstab but most of the time I have to log in as root
after the system boots and do a: mount -a -t nfs
