Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.2.3+9.2.4-rc2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid
I'm running bind9 on a machine which uses NIS for users. Apparently, the
NIS server (a freebsd box) has a "bind" user, as "id bind" returns
"uid=53(bind) gid=53(bind) groups=53(bind)" when the machine is running.
During bootup, it appears bind tries to start before ypbind, and so it
fails with a message "user bind not found". Indeed there is no "bind"
user in /etc/passwd.
Perhaps the bind9 setup scripts should be changed to add a local bind
user to /etc/passwd, ignoring NIS user info?

Hi,
the bind9 bug list grew too much and the Debian BIND team cannot
simply test all the reported bugs against versions not in stable, so
this is mass bug close, as either the version is no longer relevant
(because of old-old-stable 9.8.x or old-stable 9.9.5 or even older
version of bind9) or the bug was already fixed.
However, if you can reproduce the bug with a current version in stable,
please use Debian BTS 'found <bug> <version_you_reproduced_the_issue>'
command to retag the bug and reopen it.
Cheers,
Ondrej
