--- Begin Message ---Package: libnss-ldap Version: 238-1 Symptoms: A normal user does not get information from the ldap database via nss ( $> getent passwd ). A user may get "I have no name!" instead of his username ( if ntcd is not running ) A user may get Errors like "cannot find username for UID ...." ( $> whoami ) Cause: The configuration file /etc/libnss-ldap.conf cannot be opened (Permission denied) as shown by $> strace 2>&1 getent passwd | grep "/etc/libnss-ldap.conf" open("/etc/libnss-ldap.conf", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) Suggested solution: Change the acces-rights of /etc/libnss-ldap.conf to include public read access.

The user is asked about what permissions s/he wants on the file. Both configurations are valid possibilities (you can run w/ 600 on libnss-ldap.conf if you're using nscd, for example).
