Thank you, that has solved the issue wonderfully! I do remember the update hanging now you mention it, but I didn't put two and two together!

I use a couple of web applications that cannot use Kerberos, but can use LDAP to authenticate. These stopped working. When I investigated the issue, I discovered that the LDAP server wasn't there any more. Google searches have proved fruitless and I can't find any documentation for v3. Can anyone tell me how to get my LDAP server back? </blockquote> There is a bug in 389-ds that is affecting some IPA upgrades. It causes the upgrade process to hang and breaking out of it leaves the LDAP server not listening to anything (note that if the upgrade outright fails we do restore things). What you want to do is this: 1. service dirsrv stop (you MUST do this before editing dse.ldif) 2. edit dse.ldif and set nsslapd-port: 389 nsslapd-security: on 3. service dirsrv start 4. as root, ipa-ldap-updater --ldapi Updated 389-ds packages are being worked on. rob </blockquote></div>
