This problem was spotted in the dovecot IMAP/POP server but potentially affects more programs. For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 251-7.5etch1. For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in version 238-1sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 256-1. We recommend that you upgrade your libnss-ldap package. Upgrade instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
