According to Denis Barov <dindin@yandex-team.ru>: Gzipped patch avialable at http://www.dindin.ru/wiki/FreeBSD?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=nscd_backport.gz (78Kb) Mon, Dec 24, 2007 at 12:15 +0300 Denis Barov: > > Hi, Michael! > > In attachment patch for backporing nscd from RELENG_7 to RELENG_6.
