Package: libnss-ldapd Version: 0.6.7.1 Severity: normal
When nss-ldapd and slapd are on the same server and nss-ldapd is configured to use ldapi:/// or ldap://127.0.0.1/ URIs, restarting slapd if nslcd is running is very slow (but does eventually complete). If nslcd is stopped first the restart of slapd proceeds as normal. It seems most likely that nslcd is waiting for the ldap server to respond so that it can query the passwd/group database, except of course that the ldap server isn't there. I don't know what effect will be had on regular usage of the machine if the ldap server goes away but in light of this I expect it's not nothing. A suitable workaround is to just ignore it (it only takes around 30 seconds or so) or restart as: # /etc/init.d/nslcd stop; /etc/init.d/slapd restart; /etc/init.d/nslcd start It is worth noting that I do not have any failover mechanism configured.
