It's normal to have /etc/passwd entries in their that you'd need if your ldap infrastructure died in the most horrible way.

Otherwise a small ldap problem can brick a machine.

sorry... forgot to crosspost answer to the list:

I'm checking /etc/ldap.conf and it seems that at the end of this file it was
added a line with the following directive:
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers

that included more or less every single entry contained in my /etc/passwd
file at the time of the ldap configuration.

is that normal behaviour ?

Thanks,
Riccardo
