We have this problem too with LDAP enabled boxes. Tomcat is another RPM that can even hang with this issue.

I'll be interested in the resolution.

Hi Troy,
immediately after installing mysql-server-5.0.45-7.el5 and calling `/etc/init.d/mysqld start`, it complains that there's no user:group mysql:mysql, which is indeed the case on a freshly installed box.

This was the output of `yum install` command:

Installing: mysql-server                 ####################### [10/11]
warning: user mysql does not exist - using root
warning: user mysql does not exist - using root
warning: user mysql does not exist - using root

Although this box was converted to LDAP using a custom cfengine setup, other RPMs (httpd) create their users without any problems.

Cheers,
