It is strange that a slash would end u in the config. Can you include the output of the following commands in the bugreport:
hostname --domain hostname --nis | grep '\.' hostname --fqdn | sed -n 's/^[^.]*\.//p' sed -n 's/^ *\(domain\|search\) *\([^ ]*\) *$/\2/p' /etc/resolv.conf sudo grep -i base /etc/ldap/ldap.conf /etc/ldap.conf sudu grep -i base /etc/libnss-ldap.conf /etc/pam_ldap.conf sudo grep -i base /etc/nss-ldapd.conf /etc/nslcd.conf These are the only things that should be used to build the default search base, perhaps one of them is in an unexpected format. After the guessing of the search base you should be prompted for a search base to confirm. Do you remmeber if there was a slash present in the shown value at configuration time? -- Replacing libnss-ldap with libnss-ldapd fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235920 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
