From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: I noticed nscd was running on my FC4 firewall. I still use FC3 for most server stuff. nscd hung when I rebooted the machine this morning. I ended up having to hard power off. When the machine booted again, I went to chkconfig to see why nscd was even running, I didn't think it was needed. nscd was set off for all run-levels, yet it started at boot time. When trying to set it on for level 345 or level 3 it doesn't change to on. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): chkconfig-1.3.20 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. booted up to find nscd running ps -ef|grep nscd 2. sudo /sbin/chkconfig --list |grep nscd nothing shows 3. sudo /sbin/chkconfig --level 3 nscd on 4. sudo /sbin/chkconfig --list |grep nscd level 3 still set to off Actual Results: run levels/states are not set for nscd Tried other services, and got expected results from chkconfig --level Expected Results: the run level should change when chkconfig --level 3 nscd on is committed Additional info: It is also fishy that the machine hung up on nscd while shutting down. Maybe if I was patient it would have stopped properly, but I needed to reboot this machine quickly. I was very surprised nscd was running in the first place.
nscd (GNU libc) 2.3.5 and I did update using $>yum -y update on 11/10/2005 nscd hung up during the shutdown of the first reboot since the yum update after waiting a few minutes, I power-off shutdown the machine everything booted up fine, but nscd started, regardless of the fact chkconfig set nscd to level 1-5 off
What does 'ls /etc/rc*.d/*nscd' say?
$> ls /etc/rc*.d/*nscd /etc/rc0.d/K74nscd /etc/rc2.d/K74nscd /etc/rc4.d/K74nscd /etc/rc5.d/K74nscd /etc/rc6.d/K74nscd /etc/rc1.d/K74nscd /etc/rc3.d/S-1nscd /etc/rc4.d/S-1nscd /etc/rc5.d/S-1nscd
What version of glibc?
Sep 07 12:37:36 Updated: glibc-common.i386 2.3.5-10.3 Sep 07 12:37:50 Updated: glibc.i686 2.3.5-10.3 Sep 07 12:38:58 Updated: glibc-headers.i386 2.3.5-10.3 Sep 07 12:39:00 Updated: glibc-devel.i386 2.3.5-10.3
Should be fixed with chkconfig-1.3.22-0.4, being pushed shortly. You may need to run: rm -f /etc/rc*.d/*nscd chkconfig --add nscd before it will be handled correctly.
Wordz!
