Please find pam-ldap & nssswitch configuration from my Ubuntu10desktop client & Fed12desktop client. I guess it looks fine.
Could you review & let me know if you find i've mis-configured or missed out on something?

Thanks
Shamika

Thanks for your continous & prompt help Dieter. I truly appreciate it.
 I think I had taken care of pam-ldap & nssswitch configuration before but I will revisit that part & get back to you.

Thanks

If this is really the result you expect, than you should configure pam
sshd and nsswitch to use this result.
