By default, LDAP authentication requests have a timeout
of 300 seconds. If the LDAP server requires more time to respond to
requests in your environment, you can change the timeout settings
for your system by using a postgresql.conf setting.
About this task
To change the authentication timeout, complete the following
steps:
Procedure
- Use a standard editor and open the configuration
file /nz/data/postgresql.conf.
- Search for an existing definition for the auth_timeout variable.
- If the auth_timeout variable
is defined in the file, change the value to the number of seconds
that you want to use for the timeout. Otherwise, you can define the
variable by adding the following line to the file. Add the line to
the Security Settings section of the file.
auth_timeout = number_of_seconds
- Save your changes.
- Restart the system for your changes to take effect.
