Quanah,

I've saved this mail in my Openldap HOWTO folder, just to show that it 
is possible.

However, I always read your mails and I've seen your struggles in the 
past and some of the ways you chose to resolve them. Admit you've been 
on the edge of doubting and have chosen methods to resolve your problems 
that aren't available to the motley. What you are running, is a "pretty 
tight shop".

I wonder what dnscache is. I'm sure it isn't anything like ncsd ('man 
nscd' on a RedHat machine).

Best,
