With the knowledge that you have even two "nobody" users in your LDAP database.
I am able to reproduce the problem now. nss_ldap seems to hang in the
getpwnam() call in that case. At least when paged_results are used (which is
the default for nss_ldap).
Possible workarounds:
1. Clean up your LDAP server so that it have duplicate users anymore. As
written in comment#22 having multiple users with the same name is broken and
causes trouble. (You should at least remove the two "nobody" users from your
LDAP server.
2. Switch off paged results in nss_ldap by adding "nss_paged_results no" to
your /etc/ldap.conf until we have fixed root-cause of this problem.
