We have several RedHat systems that were patched this weekend where puppetd
is quietly going away.  I'm still gathering info, but all 64-bit RH 5
systems I've checked are OK, the failing systems seem to be limited to 32
bit systems but both RH4 and 5.  We don't have many RH 4 systems left..

Puppet version is 25.5-1

I ran puppetd -Ddv on a sample failing system and got these messages (host
names xx'd):

Dec 19 15:25:27 xxxxxxxxx puppetd[16494]: Finished catalog run in 3.15

Dec 19 16:25:34 xxxxxxxxx puppetd[16494]: nss_ldap: could not get LDAP
result - Can't contact LDAP server

So, at the next hour, puppet dies.  We aren't trying to use LDAP with puppet
as far as I know.

Looking back in /var/log/messages to before the maintenance, I find similar,
but non fatal errors:

Dec 12 05:03:02 xx ruby: nss_ldap: could not get LDAP result - Can't contact

Dec 12 05:03:02 xx ruby: nss_ldap: reconnected to LDAP server

ldaps://some-dc:3269 after 1 attempt

The LDAP server is a Windows domain controller, ldap.conf has a list of
several alternates.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
