[389-users] nscd sometimes gets "stuck"
I'm testing the 389 directory server in our lab environment before
moving it to production and have noticed that occasionally it won't
let me log in. I have to restart the nscd service before it will
authenticate my user. Here's the error in /var/log/secure:
Mar 22 09:59:31 watcher sshd[18109]: pam_unix(sshd:auth):
authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ssh ruser=
rhost=10.2.3.100 user=scarolan
Mar 22 09:59:31 watcher sshd[18109]: pam_ldap: error trying to bind as
user "uid=scarolan,ou=People, dc=companyname, dc=com" (Invalid
credentials)
Has anyone else experienced something like this? Any idea what causes
it? I want to make sure our LDAP authentication is rock-solid
reliable before moving it into the production environment.
