The +@netgroup/-@netgroup NIS password overrides can fail in

some cases due to a subtle bug. Specifically, if you override an NIS user's shell, /usr/bin/login and /usr/bin/su (and probably other commands) can end up with bogus data for the pw_shell member of the passwd structure *if* the do an endpwent(), thereby preventing logins. This happpens because the text fields in the passwd structure (pw_name, pw_passwd, pw_gecos, pw_class, pw_dir and pw_shell) are returned to the calling program as pointers to dycamically allocated buffers, rather than pointers to static buffers as they should be. Once endpwent() is called, the dynamic buffers are free()ed, which invalidates the data returned by the library functions. Note: Bill promises a more elegant solution in post-2.0.5R. This fix is only a work-around. Submitted by: Bill Paul

Small fix for the following problems:

1995-04-29T17:14:50Z

- If you take the wheel entry out of /etc/group and turn on NIS, the '+:*::' line is incorrectly flagged as the entry for wheel (the empty gid section is translated to 0), hence getgrgid() returns '+' as the name of the group instead of 'wheel.' - Using just '+:' as the 'turn on NIS' switch in /etc/group makes getgrgid() dump core because of a null pointer dereference. (Last time I was in here, I foolishly assumed that fixing the core dump problems with getgrnam() and getgrent() would fix getgrgid() too. Silly me.)

in _freecaches(): strdup() allocates us memory -- remember to free it.
