[KLUG Members] FC1 LDAP/Cron revisited

So, on Monday, I swapped out the 'current' version of nss_ldap on the
fedora core 1 server ( which was 207) with a newer version from padl.com
- 244.

After upgrading the RPM (built from the source), there was no difference
between the functioning of cron before the upgrade, and after. 

If  you edited the crontab of an ldap-only user, cron would die one
minute after you finished editing the crontab. AFter restarting, it
would be fine.  Crontabs for users in /etc/passwd worked fine, with no
crashes after editing crontabs.

So, what else could be at fault here?  I rolled back the install of
nss_ldap (since it did exactly nothing), and I'm currently trying to
look for other possible causes. If you have any ideas, let me know...
