1st off, sorry about the cross-post, i'm not sure where LDAPclient related issues belong.
We have an opensolaris 2008.11 machine that randomly looses it's connection to our AD/LDAP server. I cannot find the cause, i'm successfully using the same configuration methodology across several different machines with no problems. This becomes a large problem because once it looses it's connection, it seems to stay in anonymous bind mode and thus the AD/LDAP refuses to talk to the opensolaris machine. Is there a setting to keep the ldap client from dropping to anon mode? Is my assumption about the problem even correct? Can anyone help me with how to begin troubleshooting this?
