Description

I have this same problem in Fedora Core 4 with nscd-2.3.6-3 on an x86_64 using nss_ldap-234-4. (LDAP server is running on another machine.) Other similar bugs suggested removing the "persistent" lines from the nscd.conf file, but that didn't help me. It still segfaults at random times. I have other i386 FC4 systems with similar software configurations running with no problems. I'm replying here because I think the severity needs to be elevated to high because when nscd dies when using LDAP authentication, you can't log onto the system, no personal web pages can be located, and incoming mail is sent back with a "user unknown" error. That's pretty serious. The only workaround I can think of at the moment is to manually add all LDAP users into /etc/passwd. What's the point of LDAP then?
