16.04 fails ldap authentication

[Ian Taylor]

Sir/Madam

I am having some trouble to get ldap authentication to work in Ubuntu 16.04

I can get it to work in 14.04 ok but so far it fails in 16.04


What I did in 14.04 is

apt-get install ldap-utils libpam-ldap libnss-ldap nslcd

       filled in the various details LDAP Server etc


apt-get install sssd libpam-sss libnss-sss

     ensured /etc/sssd/sssd.conf , /etc/certs/cacert.pem, 
/etc/nsswitch.conf correct


ensure package auth-client-config is installed

/etc/init.d/nscd restart

update-rc.d nslcd enable


This worked every time for 16.04 but it fails in 16.04


On the 16.04 machine a    telnet (to my ldap server) 636

    Trying 138.251....1...

    Connected to ldap.st-andrews.ac.uk.

    Escape character is '^]'.


Which suggests the 16.04 machine sees the ldap server

Any help to resolve this would be sincerely appreciated

Thanking you.

Yours sincerely
