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

Parse ^? now, our termcap use it and some termcaps from other

systems use it too

Cosmetic changes and paranoia checks:

1995-05-03T18:33:10Z

ypbind.c: Make fewer assumtions about the state of the dom_alive and dom_broadcasting flags in roc_received(). If select() fails, use syslog() to report the error rather than perror(). Check that all our malloc()s succeed. Report malloc() failure in ypbindproc_setdom_2() to callers. yplib.c: Use #defined constants in ypbinderr_string() rather than hard-coded values.

Fix bracket error for LogMask
