I can see a number of users ( i have not increase the default limit of returned users in the console ) and when I double click on a user I get the relevant information back. However if I do a search for the same user by right clicking on people and typing in the username I don't get any results returned. When I retested the behavior for writing the email the behaviour has changed so I can now find a user when searching for it in the console but I still can't login to a box. > > The two masters have almost no CPU load and is not swapping.
