Description Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-22 03:06:26 UTC 
The sudo ldap patch has no support for timelimit and bind_timelimit options
which provides timeout settings when a server is not reachable. This leads
to insane timeouts (i.e. 10 minutes or more) when a server is down.

A patch has been coded and sent upstream for inclusion:

http://www.sudo.ws/pipermail/sudo-workers/2005-June/000479.html

Reproducible: Always

Waiting for upstream for the moment.
Comment 2 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-22 04:07:52 UTC 
Cleaning up :) (blame tigger^ ;-P)
Comment 3 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-28 03:32:26 UTC 
Still no reply from upstream. Can we get this into the tree for testing in the
meantime?
Comment 4 Andrea Barisani (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-05 09:55:15 UTC 
Just commited sudo-1.6.8_p9-r2 with the patch.
