Hi Horms, and there rest of the subscribers.

I have not done any thru full testing but this is what I think I have
observed.

It seams that ldirectord is kind of blocking in its service-verification
functionality. It does not enforce the timeout values...
I'm not sure how to express myself so I will give you an example.

Lets look at the scenario where we have webservers mounting content from
an NFS-server. If this NFS-server fails apache will still function and
_begin_ it's reply (with in the timeout period), but will fail/hang
since it can't read the content it is supposed to serve. Unfortunaly it
seams that ldirectord will not timeout but instead wait forever(at least
a looong time) if/when the service has started to reply?


Is this true?
If it is, will it be fixed?
(Using the UltraMonkey EL3 packaging)
