Disable Name Services

Name services (such as LDAP) can conflict with STA installation. Temporarily disable these services during STA installation and do not use an LDAP defined user for the Oracle user.

Open the Name Service Switch configuration file with a text editor.
```
# vi /etc/nsswitch.conf
```
Disable any name service entries. For example, to disable LDAP, comment out "ldap" from the following lines as shown:
```
passwd:     files #ldap nis nisplus
shadow:     files #ldap nis nisplus
group:      files #ldap nis nisplus
```
Save and exit the file. You do not need to restart the STA server for the new setting to take effect. After you install STA, you can modify the nsswitch.conf file to re-enable the name services.
