I'm not sure what the problem is. It might be that the Exim user doesn't
have enough privilege to do the LDAP NSS stuff. What are the permissions
on /etc/nss_ldap.conf? (or whatever the filename is)
You could try recompiling Exim with this patch, which might get slighly
more useful error reporting out of check_local_user in debugging mode.
Given the history of the code, I expect Philip has some war stories to
tell about bad error reporting from getpwnam(). I don't know how widely
the current POSIX behaviour is followed; if we can rely on it then it's
probably worth improving the error handling here.
