Thanks for your report. This is not a problem with cron (nor ldap or nsswitch) but with the pam module. I can't remember yet how we had solved it but nscd was part of the solution.
I'll let you know if I'm able to find out something. -- cron no longer respects nsswitch.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27520 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
