Hello everyone, I have a FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE system configured as a Samba Server with an OpenLDAP backend. I have configured nss_ldap to allow local user authentication via LDAP. However if I reboot this machine for any reason, the bootup process gets stuck on named. If I Ctrl-C out of named, it gets stuck again on slapd. However, if i put the original nsswitch.conf back, the machine boots up fine and i have to copy the old nsswitch.conf back to get local user authentication. Here is the updated nsswitch.conf file: --8<-- passwd: files ldap group: files ldap --8<-- From looking at the logs, it looks like these processes are trying to access the ldap server which isnt up since it has not started yet. Is there any way I can get past this (other than using the original nsswitch.conf and changing back manually)? Thanks in advance, Pramod Venugopal
