nss-ldapd 0.6.2 (Default branch) |
|
|
nss-ldapd is a (glibc) NSS module for doing name
lookups to an LDAP server. This module allows
retrieval of information about Unix accounts,
groups, hosts, and other information from an LDAP
directory. It is a fork from the nss_ldap module
to do some architectural changes. This
implementation splits the functionality into an
NSS part and a local daemon to do the lookups.
This works around a number of problems in the
original implementation.

Changes:
This release mainly fixes a number of bugs in 0.6.1 and adds some new functionality, mainly to add support for Active Directory. The timing and retry mechanisms have been changed, and some speed improvements should be noticeable with very large installations.
