CentOS - Nov 2013 - nss_ldap loop sleeping after ...

Hi,

I rebooted a old Centos 5 box and now its stuck in an ever increasing timeout
loop;

nss_ldap: reconnecting tl LDAP server (sleeping # seconds)....

This happens before network services starts.

Any one know how I can break out of this?

I tried booting in single user mode from the grub menu but no dice, the thing
keeps nss_ldap looping.

Thanks in advance,

Either wait long enough at a normal boot process or add "confirm" to
the
kernel line at grub while booting and skip the ldap service to start.

I guess it is an unpatched old box and the issue has already been solved
by an update.
