Just Curious to which file one should add the above line "debug 1" to see
the debugging output.
Assuming (since this was not provided) the use of PADL's nss_ldap, nss_ldap's
configuration file. Depending on where the nss_ldap package was obtained, this
is either /etc/ldap.conf (upstream, Red Hat-style distributions, recent Ubuntu
versions I think) or /etc/libnss_ldap.conf (I think, on Debian).
And is the format same as "debug 1".
Yes. Or, if you have a recent enough version of nss_ldap, consult the
nss_ldap(5) man page.
