??? I don't understand. As root:
kant# ls -la /var/spool/cron/atjobs/
total 7
drwx------ 2 daemon daemon 1024 Sep 28 15:15 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 1024 Feb 19 1997 ..
-rw------- 1 daemon daemon 6 Sep 24 22:12 .SEQ
[Other entries removed.]
kant# ls -la /boot/no/
total 2
drwx------ 2 daemon daemon 1024 Sep 22 00:54 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 1024 Sep 22 00:52 ..
-rw------- 1 daemon daemon 0 Sep 22 00:54 a
Of course as an ordinary user I don't see anything, but then I shouldn't
and I'm not surprised as ls is not setuid.

How do I find where it is so I can fix it? Do you think it's libc or nfsd?

Ugh! I wouldn't want to install that.

As I said above it does as root, but not as an ordinary user. All as
expected.
Right,
