Package: libnss-ldap
Version: 238-1

Symptoms:
A normal user does not get information from the ldap database via nss
( $> getent passwd ).
A user may get "I have no name!" instead of his username ( if ntcd is
not running )
A user may get Errors like "cannot find username for UID ...."
( $> whoami )

Cause:
The configuration file /etc/libnss-ldap.conf cannot be opened
(Permission denied) as shown by
$> strace 2>&1 getent passwd | grep "/etc/libnss-ldap.conf"
open("/etc/libnss-ldap.conf", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

Suggested solution:
Change the acces-rights of /etc/libnss-ldap.conf to include public read
access.
