Bug#551622: nscd: 2.10.1-1 on amd64 makes LDAP server unreachable
Package: nscd
Version: 2.10.1-1
Severity: important
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
The recent upgrade of nscd from 2.9-27 to 2.10.1-1 resulted in my LDAP
server no longer being reachable:
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldaps://ldap.local: Can't contact LDAP server
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server...
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ldaps://ldap.local: Can't contact LDAP server
Oct 19 14:43:17 debian getent: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server (sleeping 1 seconds)...
It first manifested itself with the classic "I have no name" prompt.
Turning on debugging on the LDAP server (running Lenny) resulted in no
useful information. The only thing that fixed the problem was reverting
to 2.9-27. I am hesitant to make this bug RC, since I do not know how
widespread the problem is. If it makes a difference, the sid
installation being affected by this is an amd64 Sid chroot on an amd64
Lenny system that I use for development.
