Workaround: It's a bit clunky, but if it is driving you nuts, you can add the user information to the local /etc/passwd file, and the user will be able to use sudo and su.
The catch is that the user_id and the user_name must be the same in both ldap and the local /etc/passwd. It sort of defeats the purpose of ldap, but if you only have one admin user, it works fine. -- NSS using LDAP on Karmic (alpha 4) breaks 'su' and 'sudo' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
