I rebooted my server box this morning. On a few of the output lines during bootup (noteably sshd and mysqld) it said "Could not connect to LDAP server" (or something like that). To my knowledge, I don't have an ldap server installed on my server box. Ssh from client machines is extremely slow to connect. I checked eix -SS ldap and the only ldap package I have installed on the server box is openldap. I checked /etc/make.conf to ensure that ldap was not listed as a USE flag, and then typed "emerge -pv openssh" Here's the output:
bullet etc # emerge -av openssh These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] net-misc/openssh-4.3_p2-r1 -X509 -chroot -hpn -ipv6 +kerberos +ldap -libedit +pam (-selinux) -sftplogging -skey -smartcard -static +tcpd 0 kB Is there any danger in me adding "net-misc/openssh -ldap" to /etc/portage/package.use? Will it speed up the connection process? It was never a problem until today... -- [email protected] mailing list
