| 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 |
