[Bug 582627] [NEW] slapd sometimes doesn't start in lucid; can't log in if using nss_ldap

[Stephen Warren]

Public bug reported:

When I reboot my machine running lucid, slapd often doesn't start at
all. Since my non-system users are all stored in the ldap database via
nss_ldap etc., this means that I can't log in.

Note: This problem is intermittent; it doesn't happen every time by any
means. After upgrade to karmic and lucid, I was affected by various
other upgrade bugs such as bug 571057, but I believe I've fixed the
config files to solve the issues caused by those upgrades.

I tried looking through /var/log/*, but I can't find any relevant log
entries that would indicate why slapd didn't start (or perhaps it does
start and crashes/exits quickly for some reason). Any pointers on
tracing this would be appreciated.
