/var/run resides on an NFS filesystem (flock() always returns 0 in
this case, so we falsely assume that ypbind is dead and bail out).
Settle instead for better failure checking when using clnttcp_create()
and clnt_call() to interact with ypbind. We still try to flock()
/var/yp/binding/$DOMAINNAME.2, but if this doesn't work, we drop into
the code that retrieves the binding information from ypbind directly.
If that also fails, then we're toast. On NFS filesystems, this means
we'll be ignoring the binding file for no reason and always talking to
ypbind even though we don't have to, but at least things will work.
(I could just replace the flock(/var/run/ypbind.lock) check with
an RPC call to ypbind's NULLPROC procedure, but if the flock() of
the binding file doesn't pan out we're going to try to talk to
ypbind later anyway. *sigh* Is NFS file locking ever going to work?)

Also copied results of yp_match() to a static buffer for consistency

Note: _getnetbynisaddr() chops off trailing .0's, i.e. 244.0.0 is

lookups) leaves the traling .0's in place. This means that the NIS
and local file lookups will match different things when looking up the
same network number. I'm not sure which is the correct behavior. (I
think the DNS lookup code tries all combinations -- should the NIS
and local host lookup routines do that too?)

This makes the NIS code behave a little better in cases where libc makes

This cleans up some strange libc behavior that manifests itself if

In this event, the getrpcent(3) code could try to call into NIS and
cause several inexplicable "clnttcp_create error: RPC program not

if the system domain name is set and, if it is, proceeds to call
yp_bind() to attempt to establish a binding. Since there is no
binding file (remember: ypbind isn't running, so /var/yp/binding
will be empty), _yp_dobind() will attempt to contact ypbind to
prod it into binding the domain. And because ypbind isn't running,
the code generates the 'clnttcp_create' error. Ultimately the
_yp_check() fails and the getrpcent(3) code rolls over to the /etc/rpc
file, but the error messages are annoying, and the code should be
smart enough to forgo the binding attempt when NIS is turned off.

What was happening, is if syslogd was not running, syslog() would do

This meant that sometimes extra characters could be written to the console

This totally avoids the potential problem by using writev() like the rest

Fix for PR #510. The original problem was that __ivaliduser() was
failing to grant access to a machine listed in a +@netgroup specified
in /etc/hosts.equiv, even though the host being checked was most
certainly in the +@netgroup.
The /etc/hosts.equiv file in question looked like this:
localhost
+@netgroup
The reason for the failure was had to do with gethostbyaddr(). Inside
the __ivaliduser() routine, we need to do a gethostbyaddr() in order
to get back the actual name of the host we're trying to validate since
we're only passed its IP address. The hostname returned by gethostbyaddr()
is later passed as an argument to innetgr(). The problem is that
__icheckhost() later does a gethostbyname() of its own, which clobbers
the buffer returned by gethostbyaddr().
The fix is just to copy the hostname into a private buffer and use
_that_ as the 'host' argument that gets passed to innetgr().
And here I was crawling all over the innetgr() code thinking the
problem was there. *sigh*

- getnetgrent.c: address some NIS compatibility problems. We really need
to use the netgroup.byuser and netgroup.byhost maps to speed up innetgr()
when using NIS. Also, change the NIS interaction in the following way:
If /etc/netgroup does not exist or is empty (or contains only the
NIS '+' token), we now use NIS exclusively. This lets us use the
'reverse netgroup' maps and is more or less the behavior of other
platforms.
If /etc/netgroup exists and contains local netgroup data (but no '+').
we use only lthe local stuff and ignore NIS.
If /etc/netgroup exists and contains both local data and the '+',
we use the local data nd the netgroup map as a single combined
database (which, unfortunately, can be slow when the netgroup
database is large). This is what we have been doing up until now.
Head off a potential NULL pointer dereference in the old innetgr()
matching code.
Also fix the way the NIS netgroup map is incorporated into things:
adding the '+' is supposed to make it seem as though the netgroup
database is 'inserted' wherever the '+' is placed. We didn't quite
do it that way before.
(The NetBSD people apparently use a real, honest-to-gosh, netgroup.db
database that works just like the password database. This is
actually a neat idea since netgroups is the sort of thing that
can really benefit from having multi-key search capability,
particularly since reverse lookups require more than a trivial
amount of processing. Should we do something like this too?)

Back out the 'help NIS rebind faster' hack. This change used a
connect()/send() pair rather than the original sendto() to allow
RPC to pass ICMP host unreachable and similar errors up to RPC

cause trouble in environments with multi-homed hosts: if the portmapper
on the multi-homed machine sends a reply with a source address
that's different than the one associated with the connection by
connect(), the kernel will send a port unreachable message and
drop the reply. For the sake of compatibility with everybody else

Strange as it sounds, it should map to YPERR_DOMAIN instead.
The YP_NODOM protocol error code is generally returned by ypserv when you
ask it for data from a domain that it doesn't support. By contrast,
the YPERR_NODOM error code means 'local domain name not set.'

_gr_breakout_yp(): if we encounter a NULL pointer generated as the
result of a badly formatted NIS passwd entry (e.g. missing fields),
we punt and return an error code, thereby silently skipping the
bad entry.
last night:
_gr_breakout_yp() doesn't check for badly formatted NIS group entries.
For example, a bogus entry like this:
bootp::user1,user2,user3
will lead to a null pointer dereference and a SEGV (note that the GID
field is missing -- this results in one of the strsep(&result, ":")
returning NULL). The symtpom of this problem is programs dumping
core left and right the moment you add a + entry to /etc/group.
Note that while this is similar to an earlier bug, it's caused by a
different set of circumstances.
The fix is to check for the NULL pointers and have _gr_breakout_yp()
punt and return a failure code if it catches one. This is more or
less the behavior of SunOS: if a bad NIS group entry is encountered,
it's silently ignored. I don't think our standard (non-NIS) group
parsing code behaves the same way. It doesn't crash though, so I'm
citing the 'it ain't broken, don't fix it' rule and leaving it alone.
I'll probably have to add similar checks to _pw_breakout_yp() in
getpwent.c to ward off the same problems. It's rare that bad NIS
map entries like this occur, but we should handle them gracefully
when they do.
'cycle in netgroup check too greedy').
PR #508 is apparently due to an inconsistency in the way the 4.4BSD
netgroup code deals with bad netgroups. When 4.4BSD code encounters
a badly formed netgroup entry (e.g. (somehost,-somedomain), which,
because of the missing comma between the '-' and 'somedomain,' has
only 2 fields instead of 3), it generates an error message and
then bails out without doing any more processing on the netgroup
containing the bad entry. Conversely, every other *NIX in the world
that usees netgroups just tries to parse the entry as best it can
and then silently continues on its way.
The result is that two bad things happen: 1) we ignore other valid entries
within the netgroup containing the bogus entry, which prevents
us from interoperating with other systems that don't behave this way,
and 2) by printing an error to stderr from inside libc, we hose certain
programs, in this case rlogind. In the problem report, Bill Fenner
noted that the 'B' from 'Bad' was missing, and that rlogind exited
immediately after generating the error. The missing 'B' is apparently
not caused by any problem in getnetgrent.c; more likely it's getting
swallowed up by rlogind somehow, and the error message itself causes
rlogind to become confused. I was able to duplicate this problem and
discovered that running a simple test program on my FreeBSD system
resulted in a properly formatted (if confusing) error, whereas triggering
the error by trying to rlogin to the machine yielded the missing 'B'
problem.
Anyway, the fixes for this are as follows:
- The error message has been reformatted so that it prints out more useful
information (e.g. Bad entry (somehost,-somedomain) in netgroup "foo").
We check for NULL entries so that we don't print '(null)' anymore too. :)
- Rearranged things in parse_netgrp() so that we make a best guess at
what bad entries are supposed to look like and then continue processing
instead of bailing out.
- Even though the error message has been cleaned up, it's wrapped inside
a #ifdef DEBUG. This way we match the behavior of other systems. Since we
now handle the error condition better anyway, this error message becomes
less important.
PR #507 is another case of inconsistency. The code that handles
duplicate/circular netgroup entries isn't really 'too greedy; -- it's
just too noisy. If you have a netgroup containing duplicate entries,
the code actually does the right thing, but it also generates an error
message. As with the 'Bad netgroup' message, spewing this out from
inside libc can also hose certain programs (like rlogind). Again, no
other system generates an error message in this case.
The only change here is to hide the error message inside an #ifdef DEBUG.
Like the other message, it's largely superfluous since the code handles
the condition correctly.
Note that PR #510 (+@netgroup host matching in /etc/hosts.equiv) is still
being investigated. I haven't been able to duplicate it myself, and I
strongly suspect it to be a configuration problem of some kind. However,
I'm leaving all three PRs open until I get 510 resolved just for the
sake of paranoia.
