Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22 Severity: important If i run getent without the --service=ldap arg everything works flawlessy. Also giving an argument after the database specification solves the problem. eg:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ getent --service=ldap passwd roppedisano roppedisano:x:5099:5099:Roberto Oppedisano:/home/roppedisano:/bin/bash (btw, I noticed that if a user is present in both the ldap db and in /etc/passwd, the local user is found, which seems odd) while: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ getent --service=ldap passwd hangs forever. I tried to reproduce the bug on different server and found that only debian based hosts seem affected (tried on a Suse 9.3 and a couple of redhat 7.3 systems). The LDAP server is always the same (uptodate debian sarge) and I can reproduce the bug on it (with and without nscd running). -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.29 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages libc6 depends on: ii libdb1-compat 2.1.3-7 The Berkeley database routines [gl -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
