When i try to run php4 (as a module from apache) i also compiled php4 with oracle 8 support (oracle and oci8), it crashes every time it reads my libnss-ldap.conf which has my host, my base and my ldap version (in this case its v3) only those 3 lines, which is needed for others programs to access my ldap base.
When i remove the file libnss-ldap.conf , php4 load normally without segmentat faulting, anyway when i dont load the php4 module , apache works fine, so it isnt a bug in apache, but in the php4, i also tried php 4.3.4 and 4.1.2 but still gave me the same.

for now i have disabled php4 and im running with apache (1.3.29) and coldfusion mx 6.1 without any problems.

a small fix imho would make php not read this file, but well i dont know WHY it reads it and which impacts would if he doesnt read. 

i hope i can get some help about this stuff, either if i can get a patch (or tell me which part in code) it does this call open().

any help is appreciated.

thanks in advance.
