I have the same problem with a cupsserver with several network printers.
None of the printers shows up in the dialog. All other programs work
just fine. (Gedit,firefox,evolution, openoffice,acroread) Only
Evince/Yelp and probably some others with the same printing dialog don't
seem to be working.
-rw--- 1 root root 15 2006-05-18 06:49 /etc/ldap.secret
is only useful if you are using the rootdn to connect to the ldapserver. I'm
using another dn to bind to the ldapserver. The password for this user has to
be set in the ldap.conf file.
what i have in my ldap.conf is
binddn
Making /etc/ldap/ldap.conf also world readable fixes this problem.
But this still means that anyone can see the password to connect to the
ldap-server.
Can't this be fixed by making gnome-screensaver use nscd or something.
How does sudo and others take care of this?

Unable to unlock screen
Public bug reported:
After locking the screen, you are unable to unlock it again when using
ldap authentication.
No errors, it just keeps saying wrong password.
Local users can unlock the screen, but only if /etc/libnss-ldap.conf
/etc/pam_ldap.conf are readable for everyone, which i don't want
