I change it to 'files ldap' and now I can logon, but after an awful long time
(around 30 minutes). Does the sequence matter? Like 'ldap files' vs 'files
ldap'

Yes, a bit; it expresses the order in which to search. "ldap files"
will search ldap, and delay if it's having trouble, THEN look at the
local files.

This arrangement works for me, partly because I've shortened the
timeouts in /etc/libpam.conf and /etc/libnss.conf (or whichever files
those are; I don't remember the exact names just now.)

Check with the Howto on the community documentation; I think it's
"LdapClientAuth" or such- the details are there.
