Sure. It can be caused by several things: intermittent connectivity
issues, server malfunctions (the server log's a good place to look for
those), and several other possibilities.
It could also be caused by problems with nss_ldap itself, especially
given the ldap.conf you've provided. What version are you running,
and on which platform?
