Bug Description
Binary package hint: libnss-ldapd
See 219527 for the story of how I ended up doing what I'm doing....
I migrated a server from nss-ldap to nss-ldapd, because of a bug in nss-ldapd which caused bash and tcsh to crash on username auto-completion.
Now, the nslcd daemon which is necessary for libnss-ldapd to function, crashes about once per day.
# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 8.04
Release: 8.04
# apt-cache policy libnss-ldapd

My /etc/nss-ldapd.conf looks like:
uri ldap://
base dc=evalesco,dc=com
filter passwd (|(host=
LDAP is being used as follows, from the nsswitch.conf:
passwd: files ldap
group: files ldap

netgroup: files ldap
automount: files ldap
About the crashes:
I see the following in the dmesg:

There's no description of the crash in /var/log/daemon - only startup messages: directory. ewan.evalesco. com directory. ewan.evalesco. com
