The problem occures when the master runs a libexec/rtld-elf/rtld.c with version 1.13.2.8 or newer and has to update 2 or more slaves. Both slaves get updated but the callback to the master, indicating that all is well, fails for the second slave. So, if anyone got the setting as I described in the previous mail, please run the above yppush command and send me the output.
