Hello list,
I'm in the process of trying to move a few dozen file servers to FreeBSD. =
During this I've encountered something confusing with hesiod support. I'm =
wondering if I should submit a PR for this:
If you install pkg you can install the hesiod utilities with:
pkg install hesiod
Also, in the man page for nsswitch.conf it suggests that hesiod support is =
included by default with:
dns Internet Domain Name System. =E2=80=9Chosts=E2=80=9D and =E2=80=
=98networks=E2=80=99 use IN class
entries, all other databases use HS class (Hesiod) entries.
With a proper hesiod.conf file on a system installed from either a 10.3 or =
11.0 release iso I get:
# hesinfo rf passwd
hesiod_resolve: hesiod name not found
getent also fails:
# getent passwd rf
So I did some spelunking about the FreeBSD source tree and compiled a custo=
m iso, adding WITH_HESIOD=3Dtrue to /etc/src.conf. After installing from t=
his media it functions properly:
# hesinfo rf passwd
rf:x:12345:12345:Richard Feltstykket:/home/rf:/bin/bash
# getent passwd rf
rf:x:12345:12345:Richard Feltstykket:/home/rf:/bin/bash
Is this a bug?
Thanks!
Richard
