Fedora directory users - May 2006 - pam-ldap / multiple ldap servers Bug? or Feature with pam_ldap?

I''ve ran into an interesting pam_ldap issue.

In my /etc/ldap.conf for pam I have two servers:

uri ldaps://ldap04.example.com ldaps://ldap03.example.com

ldap04.example.com ran out of file descriptors, we had cron restart
services at night, and cron ulimit was 1024, even though
/etc/sercurity/limits.conf had been raised. 

The problem pam_ldap did not fail over to ldap03.example.com. LDAP04
still answered, even though it replied with Not listening for new
connections - too many fds open then closed connection. Pam ldap was
still trying to pin against this server.

Does anyone have any suggestions of a ''fix'' for this feature? 

Thanks,
Dennis
