>Description: if /usr/local is automounted via am-utils, it will hang when accesing a client's portmapper returning Program not registered or in plainer english, when the client is not running mountd. amd will now try, via strerror, to further report the error which, when compiled with NLS - the default - will call catopen(), which will search for catalogs in ...:/usr/local/...: which will trigger a 'call' to amd, but amd is now hung trying to print the error ... >How-To-Repeat: have /usr/local automounted then, ls /net/some-host-not-running-mountd >Fix: - use am-utils's supplied strerror.c BTW, we have been using am-utils 6.2a3 which has several important bug fixes, so I suggest importing that version into the base. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
