Environment
Novell eDirectory 8.7.3 for Windows 2000
Microsoft Windows 2000
Situation
When shutting down eDirectory on Windows there is a very small window where a client request comes in just as eDirectory is shutting down and it causes the service to hang in a stopping state and never completely shutdown. It is neccessary to kill the service or restart the Windows server to re-start eDirectory.
Resolution
This issue is resolved in eDirectory 8.7.3.9.
