On a completely patched FC3 box, what could cause groupadd to take over
3 minutes to finish?
All the utilities that manage users and groups are incredibly slow,
taking several minutes each to complete.
As the only loged in user (I'm still setting this box up) here's a sample:
root@s2 ~# time groupadd xyz
real 3m16.414s
user 0m27.906s
sys 0m8.998s
root@s2 ~# time groupdel xyz
real 3m14.103s
user 0m27.141s
sys 0m9.275s
Ideas?
How large is your /etc/group file?
Is it corrupt in some way?
