Has anyone else seen core dumps from their Solaris nscd process recently? At 11:07 CST yesterday, two different Internet-facing machines in my network saw their nscd processes dump core. The file system filled up in both cases, so I actually didn't get a full core file. GDB tells me: Core was generated by `/usr/sbin/nscd'. Program terminated with signal 9, Killed. Cannot access memory at address 0xef7efdec. #0 0xef7663d8 in ?? ()Cannot access memory at address 0xef7efdec. (gdb) bt #0 0xef7663d8 in ?? ()Cannot access memory at address 0xef7efdec. I am running with patch 109339-01, which fixes a mysterious buffer overflow bug in nscd (Sun released a proactive advisory back in November 2000, along with this patch), but this definitely makes me nervous. Has anyone else encountered this issue? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
