I am pleased to announce the availability of libnss-afs v2.0: http://www.megacz.com/software/libnss-afs.html
This version will return "not found" if nscd is not running. This resolves numerous minor issues including some which could cause extraordinarily long delays when shutting down or rebooting. http://git.megacz.com/?p=libnss-afs.git;a=commitdiff;h=b5f46b9 A Name Service Switch (NSS) plugin is a shared library used by glibc to -- among other things -- translate between usernames and numeric userids and between group names and numeric groupids. The libnss-afs library is an NSS plugin which answers these queries using the information stored in the AFS ptserver, avoiding the need to duplicate (and update) this information in /etc/passwd or LDAP. The library also synthesizes the name AfsPag-XXXX for the fake group ids that are used to represent AFS PAGs. - a _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
