Package: libpam-ldap
Version: 180-1.7
Severity: important
We have a vanilla OpenLDAP service setup on Debian Etch. We're not using
Kerberos, SASL, etc. We're attempting to migrate from an older
2.2.23-8.1 system to a new system using Etch's 2.3.30-5 and have run
into a bizarre problem:
1) Some users can authenticate correctly all of the time
2) All LDAP-based tools (e.g. ldapsearch, LDAP Browser) can authenticate
correctly all of the time
3) libpam-ldap will authenticate all users correctly if SSL/STARTTLS is
disabled in /etc/pam_ldap.conf
4) Some users will fail to authenticate if SSL or STARTTLS is enabled.
Non-authenticated services still work (e.g. getent passwd username)
Oddly, the error is reported as "Can't contact LDAP server" but the
client debug output suggests otherwise.
Fail:

I've attached debug traces of an su session with "ssl on" (fail.log) and
"ssl off" (success.log). tls_checkpeer yes/no makes no difference.
I've attached a much larger "big-debug.log" which is the result of
running with "debug 65535" in /etc/pam_ldap.conf. Starting at around
line 1336 you can see that it has queried a great deal of info about our
test account, which should not have been possible if it couldn't connect
to the server.
It's entirely possible that this is due to some stupid config on our end
and I would appreciate any debugging pointers as the logging is pretty
weak on operational diagnostics.
