Package: adduser Version: 3.95 Severity: normal
If the nis-package is installed and available, /usr/share/perl5/Debian/AdduserCommon.pm executes '/usr/bin/rpcinfo -p'. If portmap isn't running, rpcinfo returns: rpcinfo: can't contact portmapper: RPC: Remote system error - Connection refused Running 'adduser $USERNAME' prints 3 of those messages: one for 'Adding user', one for 'Adding new group' and another one for 'Adding new user ... with group ...'. Would be nice to improve handling of nis "error messages" as people seem to interpret the message as a bug. regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
