I have reported the duplicate of this at #156562: I have installed libnss-ldap and related packages in order to authenticate against LDAP server. During installation, I have been asked for server information, LDAP version etc. However, this information has been placed NOWHERE in /etc. It seems that Ubuntu simply drops the information! It dosent set up ANY needed configuration for LDAP auth! Strange, that there is /etc/ldap.conf both with /etc/ldap/ldap.conf (this one is not efective, all rows commented)
Then I managed all the needed files manually: /etc/ldap/ldap.conf, /etc/ldap/ldapserver, /etc/pam.d/login, /etc/pam.d/common-account, /etc/nsswitch.conf and so on. I did it the way that has WORKED with Feisty Fawn and Debian Etch before. After reboot, system fails to boot. It stops on "Starting kernel log daemon" forever. When I set passwd, group and shadow parameters in nsswitch.conf back to "compat", it starts normally, however when I set them to "compat ldap files", fails to boot again. -- ldap config causes Ubuntu to hang at a reboot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155947 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
