Bug#926186: debian-edu-config: should invalidate the nscd netgroup cache in case of changes



Package: debian-edu-config
Version: 2.10.63
Severity: important

After a main server installation the users' home 
directory mounting (depending on netgroup membership) on a workstation 
failed because the nscd caching content had been wrong. This problem 
also showed up from time to time in the past and is really annoying.

The failure can be avoided if the related tool 'gosa-sync-dns-nfs' is 
modified by adding 'nscd -i netgroup' to the end of the script. This 
tool is called automatically just after a workstation has been created 
or modified; the added command invalidates the nscd netgroup cache and 
is actually recommended to run in such a case (see man nscd).
