1 | =head1 LIBC NSS | ||
2 | |||
3 | GNU Libc uses the Name Service Switch (NSS) to configure the behavior of the C | ||
4 | library for the local environment, and to configure how it reads system data, | ||
5 | such as passwords and group information. BusyBox has made it Policy that it | ||
6 | will never use NSS, and will never use and libc calls that make use of NSS. | ||
7 | This allows you to run an embedded system without the need for installing an | ||
8 | /etc/nsswitch.conf file and without and /lib/libnss_* libraries installed. | ||
9 | |||
10 | If you are using a system that is using a remote LDAP server for authentication | ||
11 | via GNU libc NSS, and you want to use BusyBox, then you will need to adjust the | ||
12 | BusyBox source. Chances are though, that if you have enough space to install | ||
13 | of that stuff on your system, then you probably want the full GNU utilities. | ||
