I use LDAP for User information, mounts and everything else. I use the
nss_ldap switch
to get the information from a central ldap server and I use secure LDAPv3
connections.
If you do so, you can't cleanly shutdown, because the last running bash
(which shuts the system down) has the following files mapped:

(this is from a RH 6.2 system with enhancements but applies the same to RH
7.1)

startx  22825 henning  cwd    DIR      0,6   16384   250

note libssl and libcrypto. When shutting down, the /usr filesystem stays
busy if /usr is
on a different FS than the root FS. So the machine does not shut down.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
0. use LDAP for user information. Use secure LDAPv3 to query your server.
1. go to single user mode.
2. look at the pid of the initial shell
3. do "lsof -p <pid>"
4. look at the mapped libraries. libssl and libcrypto come from the /usr fs
	

Actual Results:  shutdown says "/usr busy", machine hangs, hard reboot
needed, sometimes FS  corruption occurs.

reboot needs fsck of /usr

Expected Results:  machine should unmount /usr, remount / read-only and
reboot

moving the libssl and libcrypto to /lib makes this working.

Comment 1 Nalin Dahyabhai 2001-07-03 19:24:57 UTC
This doesn't really solve the problem, since depending on how OpenLDAP was built,
you may need SASL modules which live in /usr/lib/sasl, but I'll move them in
openssl-0.9.6a-7 and later.
