Check the permission of /etc/libnss-ldap.conf or whatever its called in
RedHat. It must be readable by anyone.

By example, on my debian machine:

cronos:/etc# chmod 600 libnss-ldap.conf
cronos:/etc# su - pepito
I have no name!@cronos:~$ logout
cronos:/etc# chmod 644 libnss-ldap.conf
cronos:/etc# su - pepito
pepito@cronos:~$
