fix for DirectoryService
from bumby:
Since the 10.5.1 update was released, lots of people are complaining
that the DirectoryService process has 100%(less or even more
than that) CPU usage after some kind of event.
The easy way to fix this is to copy /usr/sbin/DirectoryService from 10.5.0
and repair the permissions after this operation is completed.
Let’s say you have the original 10.5.0 DirectoryService executable,
you need just a few commands to apply the fix:
sudo -s
cp /Users/youruser/DirectoryService /usr/sbin/DirectoryService
diskutil repairPermissions /
NOTES:
1 replace /Users/youruser/DirectoryService with the path to the 10.5.0
DirectoryService
2 if you don’t know where to get that file from, you can find it on the LEO install DVD
in the usr/sbin directory

Thx Bumby!
simple and perfect!
And after 10.5.2 work new DirectoryService ?
Thanks
would this fix work for an identical situation with 10.6.1?
What about 10.5.8? Would the 10.5.0 executable still work or is it too old and would introduce new problems? Thanks.
///well. the patch itself is so old, So i dont know
