Was it *just* the bugzilla LDAP slave server that went down? I saw a 
bunch of 'create-auth-*' script errors too around that time that suggest 
the master LDAP server was having problems too. Maybe a bit more to this 
that the above?

All seems to be working hunky-dorey now, though. Thanks, mgalgoci.
