I tried with both with the same results. Before I had the problems
(starting about 2 days ago) I remembered that there was an entry called
"compat ldap", that's basically while I used it. But as I do not use
NIS , I will change that to "files ldap".

No entries for shadow in ldap. Is that the reason why it stopped
working? If so, is that documented somewhere? I wasn't aware that I need
to add shadow information in ldap to be able to use my setup, which has
worked for several months before.

Here it is:

# /etc/nslcd.conf
# nslcd configuration file. See nslcd.conf(5)
# for details.

# The user and group nslcd should run as.
uid nslcd
gid nslcd

# The location at which the LDAP server(s) should be reachable.
uri ldap://192.168.8.3/

# The search base that will be used for all queries.
base dc=fkoop,dc=de

# The LDAP protocol version to use.
ldap_version 3

# The DN to bind with for normal lookups.
#binddn cn=annonymous,dc=example,dc=net
#bindpw secret

# SSL options
#ssl off
#tls_reqcert never

# The search scope.
#scope sub

I am using nscd and yes, "getent passwd fkoop" produces the expected
output.
