For example, every system that I have running openldap eventually corrupts the database (usually in 2-3 months of continuous use). This is on servers that run for months (sometimes years) at a time without a reboot. Luckily slapd_db_recover and slapindex has fixed the problem every time so far, which is why I'd *really* like it if "service ldap restart" would run both. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199322 Steve -- Steven Pritchard - K&S Pritchard Enterprises, Inc.
