>Originator: Joao Carlos Mendes Luis
>Release: FreeBSD 3.4-RC i386
>Organization:
COPPE/UFRJ
>Environment:
FreeBSD NIS server, using /etc/group and /etc/master.passwd as source
>Description:
If you use comments (#) in those files, NIS tries to create tables
with them, instead of ignoring them.
>How-To-Repeat:
Put a # comment in /etc/group, cd /var/yp, make
>Fix:
This patch removes lines with comments before making NIS databases.
