I have been rolling out a new website for some time. I have had reports from my testers that they get an error when they try to register with the site. I started investigating and found that if a user has NIS installed on their system, and they try to register, administer blocks, sections, or post messages in the forums, they experience errors and are unable to perform their tasks.
I have installed ver 2.0.3 but have not upgraded to 2.0.5 because I havent had the time. (I do plan to perform the upgrade to 2.0.5 before the site goes live.) Has this issue been addressed? If not, it should probably be investigated...
Here is a snipit from a correspondence with one of my testers where I ask for some screenshots:

Thanks,
