Hello, the mangling of passwd and passwd.adjunct.byname happens in glibc-2.7/nis/nss_nis/nis-pwd.c. Before I found out that nscd is part of the problem, I tried to let the mangling happen only if the calling user to getpwnam is root (by checking for geteuid() == 0), but that did not solve the problem, maybe because nscd is running as root and so the euid is always 0? After replacing the condition (geteuid() == 0) with (1 == 0), no NIS shadow passwords are shown, not even for root.
