Could you please tell me if you use systemd or sysvinit, to know if the systemd service file is used, or the old init script. > nscd's caches should be deleted or recreated at service start or > restart, as applicable. With both the systemd service and the old init script, the caches should be invalidated through nscd -i, which is the proper way to start with a clean cache. Now there might be a case which is not handled correctly. Aurelien -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 4096R/1DDD8C9B aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net
