Package: Cyrus-imapd-2.2
Version: 2.2.13-8

Almost two weeks ago I started getting this error when trying to log into
my Cyrus 2.1 IMAP server. I have an LDAP setup to centralise user
accounts on my small family network. Thankfully this server is only used
by myself. I use saslauthd for authentication, configured to use my LDAP
directory.

In the process of trying to find the problem I upgraded to the 2.2
packages in an attempt to fix it, which is why I'm submitting it here. The
problem remains the same.

Today I found the reference to bug #145766 in README.Debian.gz. I rebuilt
the openldap2 package with --without-cyrus-sasl and installed the libldap2
package, but this did not seem to fix things. I found that simply removing
the 'ldap' entries in nsswitch.conf fixed the problem. So it seems to be
a problem with libnss-ldap. But without LDAP I couldn't log in to that
machine (I use it for a few things) and Postfix started bouncing my email
because it couldn't find my user account. So this is a totally unworkable
solution. Please help me!

Thanks,
bye
Based on your description of the problem and the timeline involved, I believe this is a bug in libnss-ldap and am reassigning it accordingly. On 2006-10-3, libnss-ldap 251-5.2 migrated to testing, which would be the point where you started experiencing problems.

In the future, please try to include the appropriate information in your bug reports, such as the version of debian you are using, the version of all the packages involved, your kernel and so forth. Using the reportbug utility will do this for you automatically. Also, please make sure your bugs are filed against the appropriate packages. If you had a working cyrus 2.1 configuration that stopped working, filing a bug against cyrus 2.2 is not productive. Look at the dpkg logs to see what packages were updated around the time the problem occured and use that to trace the problem.

Best of luck in resolving your situation.
