I think this is a bad time to make changes to the default nsswitch.conf in hamm. Historically the configuration of nsswitch has been quite tricky; its current contents are the result of much experimentation and bughunting. I reviewed bug #10896, and it does not list any specific bad effects of having nsswitch the way it is now. I strongly recommend against this change, unless it can be shown to fix something that is broken. Richard Braakman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
