I guess it is on the server right? This mesages is there, as it refuses
to serve a passwd.adjunct.byname to a non-priviledged user (coming from
a port >= 1024).

That's strange, because with the patch to fix the NIS shadow leak,
passwd.adjunct.byname calls have been removed for normal calls, and are
now only done when querying shadow entries.
Have you tried to reproduce the bug by running a simple C code calling
getpwuid()?
Also, can you please share the contents of your /etc/nsswitch.conf?
