adapt the /etc/nsswitch.conf file to refer local in case ldap is not avialable.

Sorry for wrong information

i am able to login but its taking 5-6 min time to give me a shell prompt

what i found that

i login using local user ,at the same time
i did netstat -na | grep 389 from existing connection , i found connection remain in SYC_SENT state for sometime & repeat for 2-3 time ,as soon as socket get clean i get shell prompt

Could this be the problem ??

if yes how do i control this time from ldapux
client deamon ??
