Bug Description

ISSUE:
Just installed 12.04.4 LTS (#lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS Release: 12.04) to a new Server and brought it onto the existing network with 12.04.2 LTS servers using NIS and LDAP.
1.) Ran into the outstanding issue where imapd.d did not detect the domain and had to manually enter it in /etc/idmapd.conf.
2.) When tryin to mount 3.2.0-* Kernel FileServer Shares, it would still present the "unknown user / group id" numeric "42464587" instead of the user/group id's from LDAP.

Went through all the settings in NSSWITCH, NSLCD, NSCD, and LDAP to confirm all the information.
ran "getent" against the id's and it would respond with the correct infromation.

Temp Solution:
Revert Kernel from the 3.8.0-35-generic (current) to the 3.2.0-58-generic Kernel running on the other servers in the environment.
NFS / LDAP / NIS works fine on the older Kernel.

Final Solution: ?

Since the issue is KERNEL related as far as I can determine, I am marking the package as "linux" per the guide.

I would have thought that my TITLE: 3.8.0-* NFS Compatibility with 3.2.0-* Kernels

Would have acurately targeted the correct package, even if you had not bothered to read the synopsis in the report.
