[sudo-users] sudo 1.8.6 + ldap delay on solaris 10

[Patrick Spinler]

Using sudo 1.8.6p4 on Solaris 10 compiled to use ldap sudoers, we're
seeing a very long delay in executing any sudo command.

"sudo -l" returns almost instantly

"sudo ls" takes upwards of a minute to actually execute the invoked
sub-command

The local /etc/sudoers is empty except for a "root ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:
ALL" rule.

On the LDAP server logs, we see the sudo client query the default
settings, get a response, then over a minute later, query for allowable
sudo rules.

Truss'ing the local sudo process on the host, it appears to be in a loop
for most of that time doing this repeatedly:

5267:   79.3913 getuid()                                        = 249090 [0]
5267:   79.3914 getuid()                                        = 249090 [0]
5267:   79.3915 door_info(3, 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFEB78)                = 0
5267:   79.3938 door_call(3, 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFEC78)                = 0


Thoughts, anyone?

Thanks,
