uri ldaps://host requires trailing '/' to work

[LaMont Jones]

Binary package hint: libnss-ldap

After spending a while getting NSS to work on a gutsy system, I discovered that "uri ldaps://foo.example.com" doesn't work (connects to the server, and then claims no user exists), while "uri ldaps://foo.example.com/" does. The best solution would be to make it just work, possibly by noticing the lack of a / and adding one, when the config file is parsed.

This is still broken on an up-to-date Jaunty system.

These work:
ldaps://server/
ldaps://server:636

This doesn't:
ldaps://server

This is *remarkably* annoying!!!
