Yes, that is the bugger.
using "ldap_bind = yes" within this context gives that error.
Thanks for all the help. It seems so harmless ...
passdb ldap {
passdb_use_worker = yes
passdb_ldap_filter = ...
fields {
...
}
}

immediately shows in the log files that the password is missing.

HI
if you put the bind password back in the configuration and take out
the ldap_bind = yes or set it to no in the passdb ldap config, does that
go back to working again? If so is the error message about userpassword
still produced?
John
