These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship information.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><command>nss-systemd</command> is a plug-in module for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS) functionality of the
|
|
GNU C Library (<command>glibc</command>), providing UNIX user and group name resolution for dynamic users and
|
|
groups allocated through the <varname>DynamicUser=</varname> option in systemd unit files. See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.exec</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry> for details on
|
|
this option.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This module also ensures that the root and nobody users and groups (i.e. the users/groups with the UIDs/GIDs
|
|
0 and 65534) remain resolvable at all times, even if they aren't listed in <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> or
|
|
<filename>/etc/group</filename>, or if these files are missing.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To activate the NSS module, add <literal>systemd</literal> to the lines starting with
|
|
<literal>passwd:</literal> and <literal>group:</literal> in <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>It is recommended to place <literal>systemd</literal> after the <literal>files</literal> or
|
|
<literal>compat</literal> entry of the <filename>/etc/nsswitch.conf</filename> lines so that
|
|
<filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and <filename>/etc/group</filename> based mappings take precedence.</para>
