Removing a binary is not normally a good idea -- I meant to remove the package. > nscd is not a seperate program > or package, it's a part of the glibc package, so I don't know if that's a > good idea?

On my CentOS 5 and SuSE 10.2 systems nscd is a separate rpm package, and I was suggesting to try removing the package -- assuming that does not break everything. It is possible that glibc is using the code if it is installed (detecting shared objects) and does not us it if it is not installed.

It is also possible that some other configuration parameter for your OS is causing nscd to crash -- e.g. your resolver (/etc/resolv.conf) or your DNS configuration ...
