Package: libc6

Followup-For: Bug #369536


Kubuntu Dapper Drake is affected, too.
They are using libc6 version: 2.3.6-0ubuntu20

And: Hey guys!! This is a severe bug for those who use debian clients in a 
network of NIS-computers!! This is very common and therefore this bug needs to 
be fixed!

Bug#369536: netgroup: nis in nsswitch.conf causes libc6 to fail and programs like sudo or rpc.mountd to crash

2006-05-30 Thread Volker Sauer
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.6-9
Severity: important


if in /etc/nsswitch.conf:

netgroup:   nis


then e.g. sudo fails:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ~  sudo bash
sudo: nss_nis/nis-netgrp.c:78: _nss_nis_setnetgrent: Assertion `len  0' failed

and rpc.mountd fails with the same error.

If I set

netgroup: files

everything runs okay.
