Package: libnss-ldap Version: 251-1 Severity: grave To relevant parts of nsswitch.conf on my system look like this:
passwd: files ldap group: files ldap shadow: files ldap libnss_ldap is configured to query a remote LDAP server. This makes booting stuck if you use udevd (which most systems will do nowadays) so I'm filing this bug grave. These are the messages I get: INIT: version 2.86 booting Starting the hotplug events dispatcher: udevd udevd[374]: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldaps://foo.bar: Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldaps://foo.bar: Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldaps://foo.bar: Can't contact LDAP server udevd[374]: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 4 seconds) ... And so on. The sleep interval is doubled each time(4,8,16,32,64 seconds...). The boot process get's stuck completely. If I press STRG+C, udevd is killed and no devices are created, causing to fail the boot process completely. I had to boot from a rescue CD to fix this and remove the above lines from nsswitch.conf again.
