Fixed In Version: nss_ldap-253-7.el4_8.2 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, enabling the "nss_connect_policy oneshot" option in the /etc/ldap.conf configuration file may have caused the "id <username>" command to exit with the following error message: ldap_result: Assertion `ld != ((void *)0)' failed. With this update, enabling "nss_connect_policy oneshot" works as expected, and running the id command no longer fails.
