editing the nsswitch.conf as described in the article (i.e.
passwd: ldap compat
group: ldap compat
shadow: ldap compat
) caused login problems when the ldap server was not available. ("Authentication service cannot retrieve authentication info.") i edited the file as suggested in<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/usr/share/doc/libnss-ldap/examples/nsswitch.ldap<nobr>:<wbr></nobr>
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
worked for me on debian sarge. very helpful articel though!
