** Description changed: Hi there, ldapscripts by default tries to use /etc/ldap.secret generated by libnss-ldap, but it fails because it contains a trailing new line. This is the error found in /var/log/ldapscripts.log: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) + + Affected version: 2.0.1-1ubuntu1 shipped with precise That's because /etc/ldap.secret is created by libnss-ldap with a trailing new line, which is not compatible with ldapadd. I can think of 3 possible solutions: 1) strip that new line in /usr/share/ldapscripts/runtime.debian 2) change the libnss-ldap package to save the password in /etc/ldap.secret without the new line 3) drop the support for this feature, so don't even try to use /etc/ldap.secret and update /usr/share/ldapscripts/runtime.debian, /etc/ldapscripts/ldapscripts.conf and the documentation accordingly Imho removing this feature (solution 3) would be a bit of a shame as it almost works. Thanks, Giacomo
