Hi all,

Using rc15 here, with userdb and passdb in LDAP, no prefetcg.

Dovecot keeps a thread open, so we can't shutdown our directory.

Any ideas why?

So that it can quickly authenticate users without having to connect
to the LDAP server every time. This is the first time I've heard of
this being a problem.. I don't know what I could do about it. Can't
you just force the shutdown?
