hi, I was/am configuring a clinet workstation (linux) to query the Hosts information from my LDAP server. I am not sure what I did but the clinet is now hamering by LDAP server. It has about 1000 open network connections, and causing something like 11700 open files on the server. I'm curious what it is causing such insane bahaviour. j. -- ...................... .....
