If I have the following line in nsswitch.conf; 'hosts: files dns ldap' then named will only start as root. Starting with -u named on the command line products a segmentation fault. I have managed to work around it by either removing ldap from the nsswitch hosts line or by removing the -u named from the init.d script (not good from a security point of view...) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add ldap to the hosts line in nsswitch.conf 2. Try and start bind with /etc/init.d/named start or named -u named Actual Results: Segmentation fault Expected Results: Named to run normally...

I have a similar issue. I have to remove ldap from the group line in /etc/nsswitch.conf: hyperion ~ # grep ^group /etc/nsswitch.conf group: files ldap hyperion ~ # /etc/init.d/named start * Service named starting [ !! ] * ERROR: named failed to start hyperion ~ # grep ^group /etc/nsswitch.conf group: files hyperion ~ # /etc/init.d/named start * Service named starting * Service named started hyperion ~ # ps -ef|grep -i named named 9285 1 0 14:09 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/named -u named -n 1 -t /chroot/dns I'm also running 9.4.1-r1 hyperion ~ # equery l net-dns/bind [ Searching for package 'bind' in 'net-dns' among: ] * installed packages [I--] [ ~] net-dns/bind-9.4.1-r1 (0) [I--] [ ~] net-dns/bind-tools-9.4.1-r1 (0)
I have this same problem with net-dns/bind-9.4.1_p1. Bind works fine running from the foreground (-f) but daemonized it fails with ldap in the group line in nsswitch.conf.
Building with 'dlz' as a USE flag seems to workaround this issue.
(In reply to comment #5) > Building with 'dlz' as a USE flag seems to workaround this issue. > I'm not seeing why this would workaroung this issue, but if it does ... *shrugs* Anyways, that's nothing we can (easily) check within the ebuild so i close this one as CANTFIX.
