Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Do you use YP/NIS? If so, this is a known problem, and is documented on the bugs page for 2.3.4. I really should get around to checking those fixes in...

Logged In: YES user_id=64920 I do not use NIS. But I don't know what SuSE really puts into the "compat" NSS module. From my /etc/nsswitch.conf: passwd: compat group: compat

Logged In: YES user_id=29957 Can you see if the patch on http://www.python.org/sf/775964 fixes this? I have had this patch sitting in my source tree for Some Time, waiting for time to test it. :-/
