Subject: nscd runs itself out of fd's, makes all name resolutions fail
Message-ID: <20001029123539.W26232@osiris.978.org>
Mime-Version: 1.0

User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i
Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: nscd
Version: 2.1.95-1
Severity: critical
Somehow nscd is leaking fd's. It eventually uses every one it can allocate
and then the system enters a state where all nscd queries return immediately
with no data. ls and ps entries return with a numeric instead of a username,
it becomes impossible to log in or use su, etc.
Leading up to the problem, you'll see:
Oct 28 13:11:16 osiris nscd: 27946: while accepting connection: Too many open files
intermittantly in the logs for a few days until it eventually hoses itself:
Oct 29 12:23:20 osiris nscd: 27946: while accepting connection: Bad file descriptor

OK, let's hope it got fixed along the way somewhere.
