>Description:
We use yp for about 2000 users. Inside the 'top' source,
/usr/src/usr.bin/top/machine.c: line 238:
while ((pw = getpwent()) != NULL) {
if (strlen(pw->pw_name) > namelength)
namelength = strlen(pw->pw_name);
}
if (namelength < 8)
namelength = 8;
if (namelength > 15)
namelength = 15;
we have to comment above, and added only line:
namelength = 9;
Because the 'top' command will delay about 7-seconds if we use
the original source. I am wondered why the 'top' dump all yp-passwd
to get 'namelength'. It seems a little stupid.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
comment above, and added only line: (Maybe you have beeter idea:)
namelength = 9;
