I tried the ignorecache=true on the clients to no avail... the server would still send the cached node entry. I could watch the output and it even reported "using cached node blah blah" instead of "Compiling node blah blah".
I'm beginning to wonder if it's an LDAP issue... From what I gather of old user list postings, the server should detect config file changes and automatically recompile.
