[K12OSN] LDM crashing on trying to log in.

[Gary Nutbeam]

It would be a lot of work for me to move to Debian, because of 
applications to be moved, tested on Debian, etc. Plus everything we do 
is CentOS and Fedora based.

I can't shutdown or reboot the client either. I saw a hack on the list 
that I haven't tried yet to "fix" the shutdown/reboot problem.
