Error description

  • If an LDAP server fails to answer an LDAP query,
    secldapclntd caches the
    non-answered query negatively. This may happen if the
    LDAP server is
    down for example. After the LDAP server is back again
    secldapclntd
    will use the negative cache entry and the application
    initiating the
    original query will still fail until the cache entry
    expires.
    

Local fix

  • turn off caching
    

Problem summary

  • If an LDAP server fails to answer an LDAP query, secldapclntd
    caches the non-answered query negatively. This may happen if
    the LDAP server is down for example. After the LDAP server is
    back again secldapclntd will use the negative cache entry and
    the application initiating the original query will still fail
    until the cache entry expires.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Handled LDAP server return values when LDAP server is not
    responsive for LDAP client queries.
