[Bug 569757] Re: NIS upstart dependancy broken for lucid

[JimWright]

I wanted to add "cron" to the list of things that have a race condition
with NIS on startup, as I don't think cron has been mentioned in any of
the other postings on this issue.  If a NIS user has installed a crontab
on a NIS client, and NIS has not started by the time cron starts, the
result is that user's crontab will be ignored (the condition is logged
in the system logs).  The user then has to manually resubmit the crontab
before cron will reconsider it.

Regards, Jim.
