I'm sure the list heard you the first time, no need to answer twice for an
answer ;).

Anyway we are trying to debug this here:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107634

I *cannot* reproduce the problem and I have dozens of sudo+ldap workin
installations here, so I really don't know what to say. Everything points to
some user misconfiguration but I can't narrow it down. Please check your pam
conf, anyway this is not related with sudo LDAP code but most likely with
some low level nss/pam_ldap issue.

Sudo folks correct me if I am wrong, any help is appreciated.
