In that case, the only naming service call that would touch ldap for a
local user would be initgroups. Check the nss_ldap documentation for the
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers config option. I'm not sure if that's in the
version of nss_ldap in the red hat release you're using, but you can
provide a list of users not to look up in ldap for group membership.
