one was already running.
Message: Cache daemon is not running (or running but not
ready).
Meaning: This message can mean several things:
• Attempted to use the control option features of ldapclientd when
no ldapclientd daemon process was running, to control.
• Attempted to start or control ldapclientd without superuser
privilege.
• The ldapclientd daemon process is too busy with other requests to
respond at this time. Try again later.
Message: Problem reading configuration file.
Meaning: The /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapclientd.conf file is missing or
has a syntax error. If the problem is with its syntax, the error message
will be accompanied by a line showing exactly where it could not
recognize the syntax, or where it found a setting which is out of range.
CAUTION Whenever the system is rebooted, ldapclientd launches if
[StartOnBoot] has the parameter enabled=yes in the file
/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapclientd.conf (the ldapclientd configuration
file). Downloading profiles takes time, depending on the server’s
response time and the number of profiles listed in the LDAP-UX startup
file, /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_client.conf.
The ldapclientd.conf Configuration File
The file ldapclientd.conf is the configuration file for
/opt/ldapux/bin/ldapclientd, the LDAP client daemon. Refer to the
previous section for more information about the daemon.
Missing Settings
ldapclientd uses the default values for any settings which may be
missing from the configuration file.
