NM to do networking, due to various problematic bugs in it. Even
when it was working, I still had to start up the legacy networking
system first, due to a pretty serious cyclical dependency;
NetworkManager depends on DBus, which depends on being able to get
userids. If you're using an LDAP server, though... the result is
NetworkManager needs DBus, which needs LDAP, which needs
NetworkManager. The result? The system freezes at the first service
in the cycle.
There is a neat option I learned some time ago:
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon,dbus
This (should) make ldap ignore these users (which exist locally,
unless you manually removed them)
