Hi,

This error occurs when starting Acrobat Reader. This occured with version 8, and I just downloaded
AdobeReader_enu-9.4.7-1 to see if that would make a difference. Same problem.

This is a Red Hat 5 machine running sssd-1.5.1-44.el5.

$ acroread

(acroread:3349): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (12345)

I'm logged on to the console of the machine, and typing "id" returns the username for my uid, all
my groups, etc. I have not experienced this issue with any other applications yet.

/etc/nsswitch.conf:
passwd:     files sss
group:      files sss
shadow:     files sss


Anyone seen this before?


Regards,
Siggi
