Version: 2.2.5-11.5
Severity: important
If /etc/nsswitch.conf contains:
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
and the LDAP server isn't reachable, nobody can login. If I remove
the ldap service from each of these lines then root can login on
the console.
However, if I try to login as root on the console many times with
the above configuration and the LDAP server unreachable, it finally
succeeds.
Please note that I performed these tests without having nscd running.

That's good. I think this problem is only in woody. I've just closed
this bug. Thanks for your checking.
