Optiplex 755 hanging

Optiplex 755 with 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5PAE kernel would hang at "Starting udev" even in single user mode.
Eventually after 15 minutes, the machine would come up.

The solution on the page below worked:
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-3095;jsessionid=08B42AD65B3FD21280CC785FB7851652.ab46478d

Add this to /etc/ldap.conf:
nss_initgroups_ignoreusers root,ldap,named,avahi,haldaemon,messagebus,dbus,vcsa
bind_policy soft

We added it to our puppet configuration as well so all the other workstations would get it.
