Reopen Issue

hi

nscd-2.5-123.el5_11.1

when execute "id xxx" RH 5.9 I get "No such user", for other users there is no problem.

when I stop "nscd" , "id xxx" works fine.

So I try to tune nscd.conf by increase the "suggested size" from 211 to 10657 , restart the service , but "nscd -g" still show 211, not the new values.

why, please help.

nscd -g:
