Bug#618473: general: Problems to handle NIS group names
Package: general
Severity: important
Tags: squeeze
I've really no idea, which package(s) are responsible for this problem.
In my log files I can find messages like:
Mar 15 14:56:09 oedibus automount[1983]: set_tsd_user_vars: failed to get group info from getgrgid_r
As the result the output from ls command looks like
...
drwx------ 21 saadi 12000 4096 19. Nov 12:22 saadi
...
The output of 'ypcat group' shows the correct group names.
If I dont use autofs and mount the filesystem manual using 'mount', the same problem happens.
The problem is important for us because many maintenance tasks need the correct group information to
set the correct permissions.
