Title:
  Mangles MAC in ethers lookup

Status in “libnss-ldap” package in Debian:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: libnss-ldap

  This bug occurs on Hardy.

  'getent ethers hostname' properly looks up a machine, but when the
  client issues 'getent ethers 00:00:00:00:00:00'  the LDAP server
  reveals that the filter is
  "(&(objectClass=ieee802Device)(macAddress=0:0:0:0:40:54))". This
  occurs for all MAC addresses so the server never matches on any getent
  key. The bug occurs on both i386 and amd64.
