            Bug ID: 207440
           Summary: NIS entry confuses chkgrp
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: freebsd at skysmurf.nl

Problem:

When /etc/group contains a line such as
   +:*::
chkgrp issues the following warning:
   /usr/sbin/chkgrp: /etc/group: line 34: strtoul failed
   /etc/group is fine
where line 34 is the one containing the NIS entry. This occurs regardless of
whether the NIS entry is the last line in /etc/group.

To reproduce:

Add the line
   +:*::
to /etc/group on a NIS client and run /usr/sbin/chkgrp (or wait for periodic to
do that).
