            Bug ID: 278395
           Summary: security/krb5: KDC has some issues if its LDAP servers
                    are down
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any

i might work up a patch for this but i thought i'd submit the bug first in =
case
you have any ideas.

the problem is this: if KDC is configured with an LDAP backend, and it can't
connect to its LDAP server(s) on startup, it will exit and never restart --
which makes it awkward to run if e.g. slapd and kdc are in different jails.

this also makes me concerned that, if it's running and all its LDAP servers=
 go
down, it might exit and never restart.

so i'm wondering if the rc.d script should start kdc using daemon(8) with -=
r,
to ensure it's restarted if it exits.  but... it seems like security/krb5
doesn't provide its own init script, it relies on /etc/rc.d/kdc, so this mi=
ght
be more of a src issue.
