NIS+ Error Messages
Appendix A362
Attempting to free a free rag!
This message indicates a software problem with rpc.nisd. The
rpc.nisd process should have aborted. Run ps -ef | grep rpc.nisd
to see if rpc.nisd is still running. If it is, kill it and restart it. If it is not
running, start it. If a core file was dumped in /var/nis, delete it.
If you started rpc.nisd with the -Y or -B option, you must also kill the
rpc.nisd_resolv daemon.
Attempt to remove a non-empty table
The nistbladm command has attempted to remove an NIS+ table that
still contains entries. Or, nisrmdir has attempted to remove a directory
that contains files or subdirectories. If you are trying to delete a
directory, use nisls -lR to check for existing files or subdirectories and
delete them first. If you are trying to delete a table, use nistbladm to
delete any existing entries.
This message is generated by the NIS+ error code constant
NIS_NOTEMPTY. See the nis_tables(3N) man page for additional
information.
authdes_marshal: DES encryption failure
DES encryption for some authentication data failed. Possible causes:
• Corruption of a library function or argument.
• A problem with a DES encryption chip if you are using one.
Call your HP support contact for assistance.
authdes_refresh: keyserv is unable to encrypt session key
authdes_refresh: unable to encrypt conversation key
The keyserv process was unable to encrypt the indicated key with the
public key that it was given. See “If You Have Authentication or
Permissions Problems” on page 318.
authdes_refresh: unable to synchronize clock
This indicates a synchronization failure between client and server clocks.
This will usually correct itself. However, if this message is followed by
any timestamp-related error, you should manually resynchronize the
clocks. If the problem reoccurs, check that remote rpcbind is functioning
correctly.
