Mukund,
Ok, I took the computer home and put it on my broadband connection.  With
that, I was able to start the yum update.  It got 18 of 22 updates
installed, then in froze the computer.  I waited for over an hour to make
sure.  Rebooting and anything to do with NFS would lockup the system again.
Used the interactive startup to get around those, ran yum but it said
everything was uptodate.

Based on this, I started over and installed it again (losing all my shares).
Immediately after the clean install, did the yum update.  This time, it
completed and the system rebooted without issue.

Now, I'm back to needing to have OpenLDAP installed and running.  Doing an
rpm -qa I see that you have the base openldap rpm installed as well as the
client one.  Both are at version 2.2.13-3.  However the server one isn't
there nor is it available through your repo site (yum list all).  Checking
out the CentOS mirrors for version 4, you find that they have incremented to
version 2.2.13-4, probably due to the security issues that you find if you
do a google search on version 2.2.13-3.  If I try to install the -4 version,
it complains about various out packages either being needed or need the -3
version.  

So, I guess my question now is whether you have the -3 version of the
server?  If so could you either put it on your repo site so I can do a yum
install openldap-servers?  If that's not possible, could you email it to me?

If neither of those is possible, perhaps it would be good to move up to the
the -4 version for openfiler to stay up with CentOS as well as cover the
security issue that -3 has.

Thanks in advance for your help.  I'm still hopeful of getting this resolved
and setup soon.

Later!

-Mark
