I've setup a master and slave ldap service for failover; however, I'd like
some advice on how to keep the ldap clients cached with the ldap creds if ever
the master and slave ldap server goes. I've tried to extend the time of the
caching on nscd - name server caching daemon - but it doesnt work when I add
ldap users to certain groups. I've also tried pam caching credentials but
doesn't work that well either. Finally, I also tried sssd but couldn't get it
to work on my Ubuntu 10.10 clients. Anyone have simple solution that works
when slave and master ldap servers get out of commission? I've thought about
getent passwd >> /etc/passwd cron job, etc.
