Thanks for the detailed report, it made it very easy to spot. The problem was that empty netgroups wern't handled properly (a return code of NSS_STATUS_NOTFOUND was returned). This has been fixed (r720) and now also netgroups with other nested netgroups that don't exists are handled like in /etc/netgroup. -- -- arthur - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://people.debian.org/~adejong --
