* | support alternate backends for the passwd and group dbs | Josiah Worcester | 2015-02-23 | 1 | -1/+113 |
| | | | | | | | | when we fail to find the entry in the commonly accepted files, we query a server over a Unix domain socket on /var/run/nscd/socket. the protocol used here is compatible with glibc's nscd protocol on most systems (all that use 32-bit numbers for all the protocol fields, which appears to be everything but Alpha). | ||||
* | refactor passwd file access code | Josiah Worcester | 2015-02-10 | 1 | -0/+31 |
this allows getpwnam and getpwuid to share code with the _r versions in preparation for alternate backend support. |
