Kind of makes you wonder... Do they have more than one computer at
Canonical? ;)
It's a little bit disturbing that 8.04 has never had the ability to
participate in a network with an LDAP directory, and no one (with the

I can confirm this as well.
libnss-ldap works fine, except for the autocomplete crashes.
libnss-ldapd works okay, up until it's regular crash.

Also, here are the comments I can find in kern.log. Note the times
though, I don't think that the inode permission is relevant to the
crash.

Hi,
this bug also drives me into serious problems, crashing tcsh and others.
Since LDAP is a standard service today and 8.04 is claimed to have Long Term
Support,
this bug really and urgently needs to be addressed. Most modern production
networks
do use LDAP.

Mixing and matching packages from various sources is no way to
administer any number of servers.
I could try out 0.6.2, but if it works, it won't help me because
1) Ubuntu won't jump from 0.5.0 to 0.6.2 and can't support the version
2) I won't automatically get security patches to my 0.6.2

About the crashes:
I see the following in the dmesg:
[30378.320041] nslcd[4943]: segfault at 2c0008c0 rip 40b94b rsp 43231610 error 4
[118920.022667] nslcd[6481]: segfault at d8000cb0 rip 4042c6 rsp
41c285f0 error 4
There's no description of the crash in /var/log/daemon - only startup
The version of nss-ldapd that Ubuntu is shipping is old. In recent
releases a number of bugs haven been fixed that affect stability of
nslcd. Please try 0.6.2 (the most recent release). That version is
available in Debian, porting it to Ubuntu shouldn't be too difficult.
