This sounds a bit like this thread: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200804/msg00004.html

There were a couple suggestions there.

So here are the 3 solutions given in this thread:

- No problem with group resolution, it is defined locally - I tried to add -g ldap, no improvement. I also tried -g <gid of ldap> - bind_policy soft in /etc/nss_ldap.conf does not help either.

But the person that started that thread tracked the problem down to group resolution. I tried with this in nss_ldap.conf URI ldap://localhost ldap://ldap.example.net

And this in /etc/nsswitch.conf: group: files (instead of "files ldap")

and I can get it starting.
