[Bug 1445041] [NEW] Can HAVE_LDAP_INITIALIZE be defined by default?

2015-04-16 Thread Deric Sullivan
Public bug reported:

Hello,  I'm not sure if this is a bug or a wishlist item.

I'm having issues upon bootup with a service daemon freezing (ntpd in
this case).  I think the problem would go away (not necessarily fixed
but no longer seen at least) if libnss-ldap was built with
HAVE_LDAP_INITIALIZE defined (in config.h.in).  Since OpenLDAP libraries
are a depneds for libnss-ldap, and since OpenLDAP has
ldap_initialize() (and ldap_init() while we're at it), then why not
activate these features by default?


I can provide lots of information about my particular problem symptoms with 
ntpd if needed.

# lsb_release -rd
Description:Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release:14.04

# apt-cache policy libnss-ldap
libnss-ldap:
  Installed: 264-2.2ubuntu4.14.04.1
  Candidate: 264-2.2ubuntu4.14.04.1
  Version table:

What I expected to happen:
No connection be made to an LDAP server due to a call to initgroups() by a 
process whose uid/username is listed in nss_initgroups_ignoreusers in the 
/etc/ldap.conf file.

What happened instead:
It seems that a connection is made anyways.


Thank you,
Deric Sullivan
