Package: nscd Version: 2.3.5-8 Severity: important
When the logfile of nscd reaches a 2GB limit, nscd will no longer start without any hint whatsoever. It will run in the -d mode, but not as a daemon. Strace in that case looks like: pid 23058] write(3, "23052: handle_request: request r"..., 69) = -1 EFBIG (File too large) [pid 23058] --- SIGXFSZ (File size limit exceeded) @ 0 (0) --- /var/log# ls -al nscd.log [..] 2147483647 Nov 14 17:56 nscd.log I can imagen it is a problem, but i would prefer continueing without logfile and printing something in syslog or giving a hint at startup or a hint from the init.d script. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages nscd depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an nscd recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
