[Bug 728047] [NEW] smbd + ldap hangs at startup after update

[slu]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

we have samba running with ldap authentication.
After today's update apparently ldap is started before samba which causes samba to log these warnings:

[2011/03/02 21:58:50,  0] smbd/server.c:1069(main)
  smbd version 3.4.7 started.

        (unknown)

  Connection to LDAP server failed for the 1 try!
[2011/03/02 21:58:51,  1] lib/smbldap.c:1265(another_ldap_try)
  Connection to LDAP server failed for the 2 try!

after that no further errors are logged and smbd is running but not
responding to any requests. A

service smdb restart

fixes the problem but it will reoccur on each reboot. for now, we have
found a workaround: simply added

sleep 5 ; service smbd restart

to /etc/rc.local but this of course does not fix the underlying problem.
Any advice?

samba version: 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3.4
