Enrico,
can you point me at the bugzilla reports please. I have been following
the ones on pdal but if there is another source I would like to see it.
Do the problems you see occur when using kerberos to autheticate to the
ldap server? Or are they in another path? You may need to set
"bind_policy soft" to get rid of the hangs.
Things that need some attention in nss_ldap include the ability to fail
over to a second ldap server, which may be your real problem.
Anyway, the version I run is 259 with my patches for the kerberos
library included (see PDAL bugzilla 298) and I get occassional segfaults
from nscd but otherwise it works nicely with kerberos keytabs and file
based tickets. I have yet to test memory based tickets.
Howard.
