I set up ldap authentication through MCC, fixed nslcd.conf, restarted the pc: everything was fine. When I tried to authenticate with no ethernet connection, kdm seg faulted and so did "getent passwd". Maybe something related to bug 10005. Everything was fine in Mageia2. Still same "bug" in Cauldron. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): (I don't know exactly - I post what I imagine can be related...) nss-pam-ldapd-0.8.12-3.mga3 openldap-2.4.33-7.mga3 lib64kldap4-4.10.5-1.1.mga3 kio4-ldap-4.10.5-1.1.mga3 openldap-clients-2.4.33-7.mga3 lib64ldap2.4_2-2.4.33-7.mga3 python-ldap-2.4.10-2.mga3 nscd-2.17-5.mga3 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Choose ldap auth in MCC 2. Fix /etc/nslcd.conf to make it point to the server 3. Restart the PC 4. Detach the ethernet cable and try to authenticate as ldap user Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:

Hi David, actually at first nslcd.service was running and nscd.service wasn't. Then I started the nscd.service and enabled it with "systemctl enable nscd.service". I restarted the machine and checked again: both running. Ok. Then I made some tests. I prefer to post the output. It's a virtualbox machine with a bridged eth0. ########################### [root@mga3-2_vbox ~]# systemctl status nscd.service nscd.service - Name Service Cache Daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/nscd.service; enabled) Active: active (running) since Wed, 2013-09-11 18:16:58 CEST; 1min 40s ago Process: 599 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nscd $NSCD_OPTIONS (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 621 (nscd) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/nscd.service â 621 /usr/sbin/nscd Sep 11 18:16:57 mga3-2_vbox.ricklinux.it systemd[1]: Starting Name Service Cache Daemon...

If you are connected: no problem at all (but you still have to manually configure /etc/nslcd.conf) 2. If you disconnect: a) if the user has already logged once -> VERY long wait then you log in; b) if it's the first log-in -> user does not exist 3. If you start with no connection/no server online -> kdm/'getent passwd' segfaults By the way, my openldap server is an old Acer Aspire 5230 with Mandriva MES5 installed. I hope this can help. Please, tell me if you need something else. Thanks a lot! rick
