Hi everyone,
I am experiencing an issue with my systems in that autofs, or even
nscd or crond hangs after our RH 3, 4, and 5 machines are being used
for a while. This issue is causing concern that our LDAP install is
not stable obviously, and has sent me on a goose chase to find some
answers.
Errors I get in the syslog are that automount: nss_ldap: can not
contact LDAP server.
Make sure you've got the most recent version of nss_ldap. Some of the
older Red Hat versions were buggy and could cause screwiness with LDAP
lookups.
