| 2 | # This file can theoretically contain a bunch of customization variables |
| 3 | # for Name Service Switch in the GNU C library. For now there are only |
| 4 | # four variables: |
| 5 | # |
| 6 | # NETID_AUTHORITATIVE |
| 7 | # If set to TRUE, the initgroups() function will accept the information |
| 8 | # from the netid.byname NIS map as authoritative. This can speed up the |
| 9 | # function significantly if the group.byname map is large. The content |
| 10 | # of the netid.byname map is used AS IS. The system administrator has |
| 11 | # to make sure it is correctly generated. |
| 12 | #NETID_AUTHORITATIVE=TRUE |
| 13 | # |
| 14 | # SERVICES_AUTHORITATIVE |
| 15 | # If set to TRUE, the getservbyname{,_r}() function will assume |
| 16 | # services.byservicename NIS map exists and is authoritative, particularly |
| 17 | # that it contains both keys with /proto and without /proto for both |
| 18 | # primary service names and service aliases. The system administrator |
| 19 | # has to make sure it is correctly generated. |
| 20 | #SERVICES_AUTHORITATIVE=TRUE |
| 21 | # |
| 22 | # SETENT_BATCH_READ |
| 23 | # If set to TRUE, various setXXent() functions will read the entire |
| 24 | # database at once and then hand out the requests one by one from |
| 25 | # memory with every getXXent() call. Otherwise each getXXent() call |
| 26 | # might result into a network communication with the server to get |
| 27 | # the next entry. |
| 28 | #SETENT_BATCH_READ=TRUE |
| 29 | # |
| 30 | # ADJUNCT_AS_SHADOW |
| 31 | # If set to TRUE, the passwd routines in the NIS NSS module will not |
| 32 | # use the passwd.adjunct.byname tables to fill in the password data |
| 33 | # in the passwd structure. This is a security problem if the NIS |
| 34 | # server cannot be trusted to send the passwd.adjuct table only to |
| 35 | # privileged clients. Instead the passwd.adjunct.byname table is |
| 36 | # used to synthesize the shadow.byname table if it does not exist. |
| 37 | #ADJUNCT_AS_SHADOW=TRUE |
