I have experienced the same. Remove the + entry from the /etc/group files and everything will be back to normal. The /etc/group entries are not cached and each machine has to search through all of them via the NIS server to figure out to which groups a user belongs. The debian scheme adds a group for each users making the problem much more acute with debian. We have solved it by copying the /etc/group to all the machines with a cron job at night. -- --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- +++ --- Please always CC me when replying to posts on mailing lists. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
