I use NIS to manage passwords, and due to a policy change I recently changed the last line of the password file from +::::::::: to +@ellard-guest::::::::: so that only my "guests" are able to log in to my machines instead of everyone in the entire department. This works fine as far as logins are concerned. The problem is that now programs that use getpwent (i.e. finger and top) now seg fault! Is this a known problem, and if so is there a fix in the works? I'm running 4.8p15. Thanks, -Dan
