I'm not certain of this, as I haven't had a chance to test w/o it.  As I
mentioned before, I ran across a problem with clients that got their maps
from LDAP.  They would timeout given the low timeout value passed to
rpc_ping.  If we just tell it to use a long timeout value, this seems to
work.  As I mentioned, this is a band-aid, and I haven't debugged the real
problem.  I'm hoping Ian's patches fix it.

Unfortunately, the kernel is frozen.  I will have to wait until the pool
opens up again before I can get any changes in.  In general, we don't take
patches that aren't upstream, so it's important that the changes make it
into the Linus tree.

mlblandf> 3) Are you going to add your yp patch to your rpm?

That will be present in the version I build into FC2.  It is not present in
4.1.2-5.
