Public bug reported:

Sometimes the nslcd daemon starts normally, but then dies later, with no
error output to syslog stating why the process died.  Checking ps -ef
shows no nslcd process running.

Attached is an example output from syslog showing the restart (Sep 25
18:23:03), the point at which pam notices that nslcd has died (Sep 25
18:27:02), and the point at which nslcd is restarted manually by the
admin (Sep 26 07:36:51).
