Description 

6295325 

The Web server should implement a timeout parameter for it's LDAP connections pool. 

When using LDAP Authentication, the web server does not respond, if the LDAP server is unresponsive when performing ldapsession bind and ldap search. Setting the timeout value in seconds in server_root/userdb/dbswitch.conf file will stop the web server being unresponsive and also stops waiting for the LDAP server. By default there is no timeout.

Sample dbswitch.conf:

default:binddn cn=Directory Manager
default:encoded bindpw YWRtaW5hZG1pbg==
default:timeout 60
