Comment 20 for bug 442498

Apologies in advance for the useless rant, but whose idea was it to strip out the default ldap config?

I second the comments of everyone here that laments the time when slapd just worked.
The cn=config change was difficult to swallow, but in the interest of progress, OK, fine. This release however is completely unusable out of the box. How can Ubuntu be so close to a final release of an LTS version and not be able to support an LDAP authentication server without massive amounts of googling and cursing? Why does everyone need to be an LDAP specialist to get it to work.
