Running services and programs that are using NSS need to be restarted, otherwise they might not be able to do lookup or authentication any more. The installation process is able to restart some services (such as ssh or telnetd), but other programs cannot be restarted automatically. One such program that needs manual stopping and restart after the glibc upgrade by yourself is xdm - because automatic restart might disconnect your active X11 sessions. Known packages that need to be stopped before the glibc upgrade are: xdm kdm gdm postgresql xscreensaver This script detected the following installed services which must be stopped before the upgrade: xdm If you want to interrupt the upgrade now and continue later, please answer No to the question below.

Name Service Switch update in the C Library: post-installation question. Running services and programs that are using NSS need to be restarted, otherwise they might not be able to do lookup or authentication any more (for services such as ssh, this can affect your ability to login). Note: restarting sshd/telnetd should not affect any existing connections. The services detected are: atd cron ssh exim4 If other services have begun to fail mysteriously after this upgrade, it is probably necessary to restart them too. We recommend you to reboot your machine after the upgrade to avoid the NSS related trouble. Do you wish to restart services? [Y/n]
