Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fc5 openldap-servers release version 2.3.19 How reproducible: every time the machine boots Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install fc5 with ldap auth in the same machine as the server runs. 2. boot the machine. 3. Actual results: the machine hangs looking for the ldap service which is not already up. Expected results: the machine continue to boot and presents a login screen. Additional info: Modifying the init script to run at S12 alows the machine to boot fine. During the fistboot auth config the machine hangs to.
I see this as well.
I've seen this since I've installed FC5. Startup looks like its hung, but its waiting for a timeout. Once the timeout expires, FC5 boots up fine. I've been waiting for an openldap update.
I have found a solution to the extremely slow startup. In /etc/ldap.conf, uncomment the following line # Just assume that there are no supplemental groups for these named users nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap The solution was posted here: http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=105954
Probably the same bug as [186527]
please uncomment nss_initgroups_ignoreusers in default /etc/ldap.conf
This issue was solved in fc6 as Jan comment above.
