  Modified:    usr.sbin/rpc.yppasswdd  yppasswdd_server.c
  Log:
  Fix 'multidomain' code. It returns a pointer to memory that it doesn't
  really own (and which can end up being mangled later). The manifestation
  of this bug is that the first attempt by a user to change their NIS password
  succeeds, but all subsequent attempts fail. rpc.yppasswdd also logs
  a message about not being able to find a file called
  '/var/yp/<some garbage string>/master.passwd.' (Note that for some
  bizarre reason, this doesn't happen with the malloc() from FreeBSD 2.1.0.
  I suppose this means we can chalk up another victory for phkmalloc. :)
  
  This bug only occurs if you use the -m flag with rpc.yppasswdd.
  
  Fix this by copying the domain name to a static buffer and returning
  a pointer to that instead.
