1 | This is nss_nonlocal, an nsswitch module that acts as a proxy for other |
2 | nsswitch modules like hesiod, but prevents non-local users from | |
3 | potentially gaining local privileges by spoofing local UIDs and GIDs. | |
4 | ||
5 | To use it, configure /etc/nsswitch.conf as follows: | |
6 | ||
7 | passwd: compat nonlocal | |
8 | passwd_nonlocal: hesiod | |
9 | group: compat nonlocal | |
10 | group_nonlocal: hesiod | |
