Problem with Sol8 and LDAP

You have to be root on Solaris to truss a setuid executable (which ssh is).
So try (as root):
root at tao[!] -> truss ssh -l treno -v

Thank you for your answer.
I took a little time to update Solaris to the last recommended patch level 
(rel. 04 Feb 2002).
The problem is still here.

User treno (this is me) is connected via telnet and authenticated against 
LDAP server (netscape 4.1).

Even a truss is not useful:
treno at tao[!] -> truss ssh -v
truss: cannot trace set-id or unreadable object file: /usr/local/bin/ssh

I am attaching pam.conf and nsswitch.conf

Thank you,
RB
