We ran a up2date on a few of machines before seeing this thread and
stopping the work. In addition to stopped daemons and missing symlinks,
we found that some system accounts in /etc/passwd were removed and _not_
replaced:
named
rpcuser
rpcuser
nfsnobody
nfsnobody
nscd
nscd
These groups were also deleted:
named
rpcuser
rpcuser
nfsnobody
nfsnobody
nscd
nscd
