http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611996 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=611996#c10 --- Comment #10 from Harald Koenig <koenig@linux.de> 2010-07-15 21:02:59 UTC --- I wondered which "bash operation" in rc script might trigger that nscd/passwd mapping... on my 11.3 test with that problem every shell shows the mapped passwd file: $ grep /var /proc/$$/maps 7f798b91f000-7f798b954000 r--s 00000000 08:02 886619 /var/run/nscd/passwd BUT on my notebook running 11.3 too I never see that mapped file! the difference (IMHO) : on the PC with problems nscd-2.11.2-2.4.x86_64 got installed, while the notebook with no fsck problems AFAIK "unscd" is installed instead: # rpm -q nscd unscd package nscd is not installed unscd-0.45-5.1.x86_64 libnscd-2.0.2-113.1.x86_64 is installed on both systems... so a workaround would be to replace nscd by unscd -- so let's try it: # zypper in unscd Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies... Problem: unscd-0.45-5.1.x86_64 conflicts with nscd provided by nscd-2.11.2-2.4.x86_64 Solution 1: deinstallation of nscd-2.11.2-2.4.x86_64 Solution 2: do not install unscd-0.45-5.1.x86_64 Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c] (c): 1 Resolving dependencies...
