What NSS modules you're using (cat /etc/nsswitch.conf at least), can you write a simple testcase which reproduces your problems? gethostbyname_r certainly works here, so we need more details. Jakub, thanks for your attention, please let me know the glibc version which you are using. I will give test program, once I confirm on the glibc version. Usually the latest (rawhide, taroon). ATM glibc-2.3.2-{78,80}.
Ping. What's the status of this? Did you try a newer release? I was having problem glib-2.3.2-27.9. As per this url (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2003-136.html) i don't see later version of glibc published R you suggesting me to use glibc from open source . We ideally won' t use open source glibc for our product. We would prefer one from RedHat itself There is newer code at ftp://people.redhat.com/jakub/glibc/errata/2.3.2-27.9.4/ Alternatively use the rawhide code (soon in the official Fedora Core 1 release). Try it and let us know. Problem had something to do with OS install on m/c. After re-install of OS problem is not reproducible. Thanks for you support User problem. Closing. |
