yes, was upgrade from libpam-ldap and probably made even more confusing
because I deploy using puppet (which is currently not running on this
client so it doesn't much with all the manual changes that I've been
making to this test server). Thus nsswitch.conf, ldap.conf (both padl &
openldap files), pam.d/common-password, pam.d/common-session are all
deployed by puppet. /etc/pam.d/common-account is not however so that was
obviously put there at the original install of 10.04 & pam-ldap.  It is
certain that I am not running things like dpkg-reconfigure libpam-
ldap(d) nor pam-auth-update as I have been asserting the contents of
pam.d/common-* via puppet

clearly this fixed it as after running dpkg-reconfigure libpam-ldapd I
was indeed 'blocked' from access (and yes, it was with a pre-shared
key).

Then after adding the hostname back into my LDAP profile, I was indeed
allowed to access so it would appear that this is workable (though I
will have to sort through pam.d/common-* to see what changes as I did
have some customizations.

I didn't change nsswitch to remove ldap from shadow and it didn't seem
to matter and I'm unclear what the difference is either way.

Thanks - I suppose you can close this as notabug but rather excessive
customization interference by end user
