Sorry, I forgot to mention that - of course we set paranoia mode on, but
that doesn't help at all. I'll set the restart-interval down to 600 to
see if it helps. Here's our default configuration for reference:
debug-level 0
paranoia yes
enable-cache passwd yes
positive-time-to-live passwd 600
negative-time-to-live passwd 20
suggested-size passwd 99991
check-files passwd yes
persistent passwd yes
shared passwd yes
max-db-size passwd 134217728
auto-propagate passwd yes
enable-cache group yes
positive-time-to-live group 3600
negative-time-to-live group 60
suggested-size group 99991
check-files group yes
persistent group yes
shared group yes
max-db-size group 134217728
auto-propagate group yes
enable-cache hosts no
positive-time-to-live hosts 3600
negative-time-to-live hosts 20
suggested-size hosts 99991
check-files hosts yes
persistent hosts yes
shared hosts yes
max-db-size hosts 134217728
enable-cache services yes
positive-time-to-live services 28800
negative-time-to-live services 20
suggested-size services 99991
check-files services yes
persistent services yes
shared services yes
max-db-size services 134217728
As soon as we test our first fileserver with Squeeze (which will take a
few more months probably), I hope to report this bug is non-existant
there ;)
Thanks for your help!
