Hi,

I started the authdaemond.ldap and when I do a ps -ef of the process I get about
12 instances of authdaemond.ldap started. Is this normall??

Looks like you already had authdaemond running, but something happened to the lock file so the second attempt to start authdaemond didn't see the first instance that was already running, so you ended up with two copies running.

The oldest instance should be killed since it won't be doing anything, any more. The parent process needs to be killed (any killed child processes will simply be respawned).
