2023-06-02Fix all the remaining misspellings -- BZ 25337Paul Pluzhnikov1-1/+1
2020-07-08Remove --enable-obsolete-nsl configure flagPetr Vorel1-2/+0
this means that *always* libnsl is only built as shared library for backward compatibility and the NSS modules libnss_nis and libnss_nisplus are not built at all, libnsl's headers aren't installed. This compatibility is kept only for architectures and ABIs that have been added in or before version 2.28. Replacement implementations based on TIRPC, which additionally support IPv6, are available from <https://github.com/thkukuk/>. This change does not affect libnss_compat which does not depended on libnsl since 2.27 and thus can be used without NIS. libnsl code depends on Sun RPC, e.g. on --enable-obsolete-rpc (installed libnsl headers use installed Sun RPC headers), which will be removed in the following commit.
2019-10-29Comment out initgroups from example nsswitch.conf (Bug 25146)Carlos O'Donell1-1/+2
In commit 4b7c74179c8928d971d370e1137d202f891a4cf5 the nsswitch.conf file was harmonized with downstream distributions, but this change included adding "initgroups: files". We should not add initgroups by default, we can have it, but it should be commented out to allow it to inherit the settings for group. The problem is principally that downstream authconfig won't update initgroups and it will get out of sync with the setting for group.
2019-08-19nss: Make nsswitch.conf more distribution friendly.Carlos O'Donell1-16/+65
The current default nsswitch.conf file provided by glibc is not very distribution friendly. The file contains some minimal directives that no real distribution uses. This update aims to provide a rich set of comments which are useful for all distributions, and a broader set of service defines which should work for all distributions. Tested defaults on x86_64 and they work. The nsswitch.conf file more closely matches what we have in Fedora now, and I'll adjust Fedora to use this version with minor changes to enable Fedora-specific service providers. v2 - Add missing databases to manual. - Add link to manual from default nsswitch.conf. - Sort nsswitch.conf according to most used database first. v3 - Only mention implemented services in 'NSS Basics.' - Mention 'automount' in 'Services in the NSS configuration.' - Sort services in alphabetical order. v4 - Project name is 'Samba'. v5 - Fix typo in manual/nss.texi. v6 - Fix another typo in manual/nss.texi. Ran spell checker this time.
2011-05-10More configurability for secondary group lookupUlrich Drepper1-1/+1
Together with a previous patch which introduced the initgroups entry in nsswitch.conf this patch allows more customization of the lookups for initgroups/getgrouplist. Nothing changes if the groups entry in nsswitch.conf is used. If the initgroups entry is used instead the code now doesn't automatically continue looking for more entries aftedr a successful lookup. Instead the normal rules are followed which do specify that by default no more service is consulted. This can be overwritten with [SUCCESS=continue] appropriately placed in the line.
