I would strongly recommend against putting system users (e.g. tomcat user) in LDAP. Especially it is difficult to this right during boot and shutdown. The default configuration of nss-pam-ldapd also filters uids < 1000 out of queries to avoid this.
The reason that some services are listed in nslcd's init script in X -Start-Before is that those services (can) use normal user accounts. For example if a mail server would be started before nslcd is available mail could be rejected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1605167 Title: nslcd should have tomcat7 and tomcat8 in X-Start-Before To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nss-pam-ldapd/+bug/1605167/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
