Why would RH affect the results in such a way?.
when I start nsd, nscp is loaded fine. Later on (another instance of nsd) it is not loaded, getting:
Error: nscp: could not listen on 127.0.0.1:9999
this seems more like a configuration problem.
I tried logging to port 9999 from the shell and logging/passwd is OK.
I noticed I had a warning for not installing nsssl, so I comented those lines in nsd, as it seems from the documentation that it is not required, and I am not palning to use ssl yet 😟.
