Hi Ricardo,

OK! We started NSCD:

 %  service nscd status
 Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status nscd.service
* nscd.service - Name Service Cache Daemon
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/nscd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: active (running) since Tue 2022-08-02 12:20:13 EDT; 1h 24min ago
  Process: 87689 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nscd $NSCD_OPTIONS (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
 Main PID: 87691 (nscd)
    Tasks: 7
   Memory: 596.0K
   CGroup: /system.slice/nscd.service
           `-87691 /usr/sbin/nscd

We turned off all NSCD caching:

 % grep enable-cache /etc/nscd.conf
#       enable-cache		<service> <yes|no>
	enable-cache		passwd		no
	enable-cache		group		no
	enable-cache		hosts		no
	enable-cache		services	no
	enable-cache		netgroup	no

Still no luck though?

 % guix pull
 user with UID 317241 not found

and

 % guix shell -D -C hello
 user with UID 317241 not found
 ...
 ice-9/boot-9.scm:1685:16: In procedure raise-exception:
 In procedure getpw: entry not found

Thoughts? Sorry for all the questions ...
