[Fedora-directory-users] RE: Random UID not found problem

[markwu at micron.com]

We just found that all cron jobs at 0,10,20,30,50 every hour would fail
consistently and give the error in my original post, but any other
minutes all cron jobs are OK.
We are using nss_ldap_226-18 and crontabs-1.10-7. I will check if UID
not found problem occurs also at 10th minutes.
