Most likely because you are: 1)Running an older version of OpenLDAP (anything before 2.3.x) that does not automatically detect whether database recovery is needed at start and 2)not manually running database recovery whenever slapd might not have shutdown cleanly (eg in the start case of the init script). Fix one of these two issues, and you should be ok. I note that this issue affects other software that uses Berkeley DB with transactions (jabber2's "db" driver for one). > I've setup a similar configuration > on another Linux server, rebooted it and all the users I created are there. Without more details, it's impossible to confirm whether this is a valid comparison. Regards, Buchan -- Buchan Milne ISP Systems Specialist B.Eng,RHCE(803004789010797),LPIC-2(LPI000074592)
