F12 -hang on boot - NetworkManger problem?

I have F12_x86_64 installed from alpha ISO and kept up to date
with a yum update. (running on a intel core2-duo)

I am always getting a hang on boot at the stage of..
       Starting system message bus.

It waits at this point for just over 10 minutes, then
continues through normally to runlevel 5.

Errors in /var/log/messages say

nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP server ......can't contact LDAP server

It repeats  this many times while starting the dbus-daemon and eventually times out.
It repeats  the error through automountd and rpc.statd
and then finally NetworkManager runs again and starts the network


Where should I report this as a bug? and against what...
Network manager for not getting its act together earlier or
general init.d boot script order..??

In an F10 install we had to remove NetworkManager to get a
working system.
Currently I'm testing F11 and F12alpha and F11 works fine.
(on the same hardware machines)

Any help or pointers on what to report greatly received.

Pete
