Disable LDAP Cache Manager – Make sure that /network/ldap/client is disabled

Details

If the local site is not currently using LDAP as a naming service, there is no need to keep LDAP-related daemons running on the local machine. This service is disabled by default unless LDAP client services have been configured on the system. If a naming service is required, users are encouraged to use LDAP instead of NIS/NIS+.

Solution

No action is necessary to disable the LDAP cache manager unless it has been specifically enabled by the administrator. To disable the LDAP cache manager, run the following command-
svcadm disable svc:/network/ldap/client
