[OpenIndiana-discuss] nsswitch.conf

[Carsten John]

Hi everybody,

I'm running hipster on a test setup and can't get changes to nsswitch.conf get honored (need to get winbind for passwd and groups inton it).

In Oracle 11.3 the nsswitch is managed via svccfg, but the service name-service/switch seems not to be present in hipster.

Any manual change to nsswitch.conf is ignored and revertes in the file after reboot.


Any suggestions?

Thx

Carsten

Hi

In Illumos based systems smf configuration did not happen as much as in
Solaris. Due to the fact that solaris closed before the change was
complete in the open-source base.


I Usually have no problem manually editing nsswitch.conf. However I
usually copy nsswitch.dns to nsswitch.conf and nothing more. But it
never reverted after reboot.

That behaviour is most probably caused by a service. There are multiple
ones that edit nsswitch.conf or copy the dns version in place.

My gueses for the culprit are "svc:/network/service:default" and nwam.

For NWAM make sure you are using "svc:/network/physical:default" instead
of "svc:/network/physical:nwam" otherwise nwam fingers into stuff you
might not want.

for "svc:/network/service:default" have a look at the start script and
see what the shellscript accepts as modified nsswitch so it does not
overwrite your changes.


Hope this helps.
Greetings
Till

Hi everybody,
I'm running hipster on a test setup and can't get changes to nsswitch.conf get honored (need to get winbind for passwd and groups inton it).
In Oracle 11.3 the nsswitch is managed via svccfg, but the service name-service/switch seems not to be present in hipster.
Any manual change to nsswitch.conf is ignored and revertes in the file after reboot.
Any suggestions?

Hi Carsten,

I used to set it (long time ago) with nwamcfg (and nwamadm) utilities,
for example:

$ find /etc/nwam/ -type f -name nsswitch.conf
/etc/nwam/loc/User/nsswitch.conf
/etc/nwam/loc/Legacy/nsswitch.conf

$ nwamcfg list
NCPs:
Automatic
e1000g0_dhcp
e1000g0_static
rge0_dhcp
rge0_static
Locations:
Automatic
NoNet
User

$ nwamadm list -x -p loc
TYPE PROFILE STATE AUXILIARY STATE
loc Automatic online active
loc NoNet offline conditions for activation are
unmet
loc User disabled disabled by administrator

Maybe there is better way, but this one still works...

With best regards.

Argh,

forgot the disable nwam as this is a test setup in virtualbox and I didn't follow my usual checklist.

Thanks for the suggestions
