Issue:

I installed samba and restarted the system ,i got a delayed start up of linux fedora core6 ,the system showing a delayed process during the set up of ip6 tables ,there were also messages like

starting nscd : failed

automounting filesystems:failed.
these were the issues.



solution:

I allowed the initial booting which took place up to 15 minutes and i am unable to logon as user so tried to login as root which is successful and after that i went to

SYSTEM-->ADMINISTRATION-->SERVICES

and then entered the password for root ,in the dialog box i) selected those services that were failed to start by clicking the restart icon (for eg:- nscd ) and then restart the system and logged in as user .The issue is over .The runlevel for my system is 5 which is the default value for most linux os.

ii)Another way to start these services is opening the terminal and then type

#/sbin/chkconfig --level 5 service on/off


eg:#/sbin/chkconfig --level 5 nscd on

to make nscd run at bootup .


this is the solution for the problem.
