Original query attached.
Briefly, I started to see "Object hosts.org_dir.fhcrc.org. isn't a
direcotry." in syslog and /var/adm/messages.
This is a cosmetic bug introduced by patch 105401-20, no deleterious
effect (other than worrying sys admins). Will be fixed in a future rev of
this patch.

Original query:
Hi,
My logs are displaying the following intermittently throughout the day:
Mar 10 00:15:03 bug3 nisd[119]: Object hosts.org_dir.fhcrc.org. isn't a
directory.
for each of the tables. Though "hosts" seems to be particularly popular.
Output from "grep nisd /var/log/syslog | grep Object" attached at end.
Small NIS+ space. Root master, three replica servers, four clients. All
Solaris 2.6 with all (as of 2/1/99) recommended patches installed.
I run "nisping -C" from cron every night and in fact the domain is
currently checkpointed. The output from "nislog" (run as root) is normal.
>From these two items, I conclude that the NIS+ space appears to be
healthy.
A search for "isn't a directory" turns up one relevant document on
SunSolve -- a bug (1255347 which is now "closed" and "integrated into
release" -- I presume this means "fixed". Same search at the sun-managers
archive turns up nothing.
Insights into what these messages mean?
