Then, make yours look kinda like this:

passwd: files ldap
group:  files ldap

hosts:          files dns ldap
networks:       files dns ldap

services:       files ldap
protocols:      files ldap
rpc:            ldap
ethers:         ldap
netmasks:       files
netgroup:       files
publickey:      files

bootparams:     files
automount:      files
aliases:        files
Also, put an entry for your LDAP server in /etc/hosts. If the system tries to look up the ldap server using the ldap database, there will be problems... :) EndPart: 0
