Hi, I could be corrected if I'm wrong, but this problem is not related to OpenLDAP. It's a nss_ldap problem. nss_ldap is a client library that's used by linux vendors to achieves seamless integration of users against *a* LDAP server.
I had a similar problem with a complex configuration and bypassed (not solved) the problem by modifying my client configuration. I reduced the number of ldap server configured to be accessed: from 4 to 3. I reduced the number of users defined in *nss_initgroups_ignoreusers*directive: i had about 40 listed in it... Etc... Make some tries and tell me if you can solve it.
