My client machine mounts an nfs home directory with autofs/nfs, coupled with nis. If the user entry in auto.home (retrieved via nis) is a short name "foo", instead of a FQDN "foo.example.com" then a proprietary app I use fails. Using the FQDN in auto.home means it succeeds. A (slightly sanitised) gdb backtrace is as follows: #0 0x00007ffff689fc43 in free () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x00007ffff641c381 in _nss_nis_getpwnam_r () from /lib64/libnss_nis.so.2 #2 0x00007ffff662516b in getpwnam_plususer (name=0x7fffffffecdf "ral", result=0x7ffff6b7f8c0, ent=0x7fffffff68c0, buffer=0x21d14e8 "ral:SANITISED:17410:Roger Light:/home/ral:/bin/bash", buflen=1024, errnop=0x7ffff7fd1698) at nss_compat/compat-pwd.c:505 #3 0x00007ffff6625437 in _nss_compat_getpwnam_r (name=0x7fffffffecdf "ral", pwd=0x7ffff6b7f8c0, buffer=0x21d14e8 "ral:SANITISED:17410:17410:Roger Light:/home/ral:/bin/bash", buflen=1024, errnop=0x7ffff7fd1698) at nss_compat/compat-pwd.c:839 #4 0x00007ffff68caa7d in getpwnam_r () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #5 0x00007ffff68ca3f0 in getpwnam () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #6 0x0000000000b054d5 in voGetUserInfo () #7 0x0000000000b05667 in voInit4 () #8 0x000000000049c125 in main () valgrind says much the same thing, I can post that output as well if you want. The same app works fine on 11.0.
