Thanks Alexander,

I'll try the nsswitch.conf suggestion. Until then I've noticed the
following : while the ldap hostname is into the DNS, if I also put a the
corresponding line to etc/hosts in the chroot the hang happens again. So
the hosts file in the chroot is red somehow.

But if it reads the hosts file propertly, what is the problem then ?

I'm a bit confused. Have a good we :)
